Want a Honda CR-V but also want an SUV with a 3rd row Seating? Well there is some really great news for you. AutoBlog.com has published spy pic of the 2012 Honda CR-V that has a ‘blown up’ at the rear.
We reported earlier that the all new 2012 Honda CR-V was delayed till the year-end because of shortage of parts owing to the Japan tragedy. But this spy picture reveals a lot of details of this new SUV from Honda. So let’s analyze what we are looking at…
The SUV has certainly grown up a lot from its predecessor. This either indicates a 3rd row seating or a massive boot space. The tail lamps seem to be designed by the same person who worked on the Volvo XC90. A coupe like sloping roof indicates softer styling cues.
The 2012 CR-V is expected to debut with a 2.4-liter VTEC, four cylinder engine. However, looking at the recent eye-opening announcement from Honda India to focus of diesel engines, we really do hope that mighty SUV comes to India with a diesel heart.
Do you think it’s a good idea for the Honda CR-V to get a 3rd row seating?

What I really want in an Indian SUV?
Flexible third row seating with ample room for adults. Not like the current SUVs here. We would like to go out with our whole family, grand parents or neighbours and need a Safe, Reliable, Reputed, Cost effective Diesel vehicle. Come along Hond and give us a great product.
No comparison with any Fortuner. The CR-V is two size-class smaller than the Fortuner and is based on a unibody-car (Civic) vs. a Toyota body-on-frame truck.
The CR-V competes with the Rav-4.
putting a third row in CRV won’t help its sales. what Honda needs is a diesel version.
i dont think itll get a third row of seating. if u look at the rear wheel arch its pretty high and thr roofline is low too, plus the width at the rear is not gr8 too. even if it has a third row it may be something only for the kiddies, like in the Endeavour

Yes,Jishnu S V, it look likes the Volvo XC60
it doesn’t look like the new c-rv .I think its the new xc90 you’ve spotted!!!!!
Looks like a copy of Volvo XC 60.
Honda should get a diesel variant and they can go head against the Fortuner with this car.
Looks great with all those surface changes.
