Honda’s Large SUV Stands Out for Performance, Space, and All-Wheel Drive, and May Cost Less Than a New Compact Model from Volkswagen, According to Recent Values from the FIPE Table.

The Honda CR-V Touring from the fifth generation, sold in Brazil between 2018 and 2021, combines 1.5 turbo engine with 190 hp, all-wheel drive, and 522 liters of cargo space.

In the used car market, especially for the 2018 model year, it appears in the FIPE Table with values around R$ 134.6 thousand (reference from October 2025), a level below that of the Volkswagen Tera High new model, whose top version started at R$ 139.990 upon launch and reached R$ 141.890 after the first price increase in August 2025.

In this price comparison, the Honda’s large SUV can cost less than the new compact from Volks.

Prices and Comparison Between CR-V and Tera High

Values vary based on the reference month and state, but the overall picture is consistent.

As of October 2025, the CR-V Touring 2018 is listed at R$ 134.560, while the Tera High 1.0 TSI automatic configuration is around R$ 141.9 thousand following the official price adjustment announced in August.

In May, upon launch, the factory sticker for the Tera High was R$ 139.990.

This snapshot reinforces the price difference in favor of the used Honda when looking at the 2018 model year.

1.5 Turbo Engine, CVT Transmission, and All-Wheel Drive

Under the hood, the CR-V Touring features a 1.5 turbo four-cylinder engine with 190 hp at 5,600 rpm and 24.5 kgfm at 2,000 rpm.

The transmission is a CVT with seven simulated gears and the Real Time AWD all-wheel drive system operates on demand, prioritizing efficiency and traction on low-friction surfaces.

For the Tera High, on the other hand, the Volkswagen adopts the 1.0 TSI (170 TSI) with 116 hp and 165 Nm, always paired with a six-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive, highlighting the differences in proposal between the models.

Balanced Performance and Consumption

In tests and technical data, the CR-V Touring records 0 to 100 km/h in 10.1 s and a top speed of 201 km/h.

For fuel consumption, references indicate 10.4 km/l in the city and 11.9 km/l on the highway.

With a 57-liter tank, the estimated range reaches 678 km on a highway journey, numbers compatible with a medium-large SUV with all-wheel drive.

CR-V Dimensions and Interior Space

The body measures 4.59 m in length, 1.85 m in width, and 1.66 m in height, with a wheelbase of 2.66 m.

The 522 liters of cargo space accommodate a family’s luggage comfortably, and the curb weight is around 1,607 kg.

The 57-liter tank facilitates long trips with fewer stops, while the approach and departure angles and the ground clearance of 208 mm assist on unpaved roads.

Complete Safety and Comfort Package

As the top-of-the-line model, the CR-V Touring includes six airbags, traction and stability controls, hill start assist, tire pressure monitoring, LED DRLs, front and rear parking sensors, and a rearview camera.

It also features ISOFIX for child seats, electric parking brake with Auto Hold, and torque vectoring through brake operation, a feature that improves cornering trajectory.

For comfort, there are leather seats with electric adjustments for the driver and passenger, memory for the driver’s seat, panoramic sunroof, keyless entry with push-button start and remote engine start, electrically folding exterior mirrors, automatic headlight activation, and automatic windshield wipers.

The trunk lid has electric proximity opening, and the steering wheel offers height and depth adjustments.

Multimedia Center and Onboard Technologies

The 7-inch multimedia center integrates Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, as well as integrated GPS, Bluetooth, USB and HDMI ports, and a active noise cancellation system.

The setup was designed to provide more comfortable trips and practical family use, without compromising typical top-version assistance and comfort technologies.

When the CR-V Actually Costs Less Than the Tera High

To support the title’s claim, the most coherent reference involves the CR-V Touring 2018, whose average price indicated by FIPE in October 2025 hovers around R$ 134.6 thousand.

In parallel, the Volkswagen Tera High zero-km started at R$ 139.990 at launch and went up to R$ 141.890 after an adjustment two months later.

Thus, considering the 2018 model year of the Honda, the used top-of-the-line CR-V may cost less than the new Tera High.

Already in the 2019 model year, the most recent FIPE average found (October 2025) is around R$ 155.1 thousand, a level above the Tera High— a reminder that the comparison depends on the chosen year and the reference month of the table.

Audience Profile and Model Proposals

The CR-V Touring remains attractive for those seeking superior finish, 4×4 traction for security in rain or dirt roads, and interior space without sacrificing consumption.

Meanwhile, the Tera High positions itself as an entry-level compact SUV, with an urban focus, 1.0 TSI engine with 116 hp, and an updated connectivity package, having the advantage of a new car warranty and more predictable initial costs.

Ultimately, the choice contrasts size and performance of the Honda with novelty and maintenance of the Volkswagen.

Considering daily use and occasional trips, which would weigh more for you today: the all-wheel drive and space of the used CR-V or the urban proposal and zero-km of the Tera High?
