The Honda CR-V is a versatile and reliable SUV that can help parents at afterschool pickup or explorers on their next road trip. It offers impressive cargo space, safety features, and entertainment programs, and now it’s available, yet again, in the Honda CR-V LX trim variant. Visit Honda Van Nuys to learn more about what this means for your next car purchase.
Why Was the Honda CR-V LX Initially Discontinued?
At the height of the pandemic and following, it became increasingly difficult for auto manufacturers to find the parts they needed to produce new vehicles. This was especially true for the microchips all modern vehicles depend upon. That meant fewer vehicles were being built, which meant the average car cost was increasing.
The cars that were selling were also more in-line with drivers’ luxury tastes. Most drivers making new car purchases were moving toward vehicles with impressive tech equipment, high-quality materials, and amenities. While highly capable, the Honda CR-V LX didn’t have the luxury features of the higher trims.
Why the Honda CR-V LX is Back
Consumer trends tend to evolve quickly. With the rising cost of everything from gasoline to eggs, drivers shifted their consumption habits again, this time moving toward affordable vehicles with fewer luxury features, like the Honda CR-V LX.
This reliable model option is coming back to dealerships. It will be a little more basic than other model options, without amenities like the sunroof or the heated front seats. Still, it’s an affordable and competitive vehicle that will meet modern Honda drivers’ needs.
