That’s all we know about the compact SUV itself right now, but we already know Honda’s plans for how it’s going to be built. The current-generation CR-V is manufactured at the automaker’s plant in Alliston, Ontario, but the automaker has invested $1.38 billion to make the 2023 CR-V, including its hybrid version. The hybrid has been sold in the U.S. since 2017 but wasn’t available to Canadians.

That will change with the all-new 2023 version, and reports are that Honda expects half of all CR-V sales to carry a gas-electric powertrain. The 2022 hybrid on sale in the U.S. uses a 2.0L four-cylinder with hybrid system that creates a combined 181 horsepower and 212 lb-ft of torque. It’s rated by the EPA at 38 miles per gallon, or approximately 6.1 L/100 km in combined city/highway driving. The conventional CR-V uses a turbocharged 1.5L four-cylinder and, in all-wheel-drive, is rated by Natural Resources Canada at 8.1 L/100 km.

We don’t expect the CR-V’s conventional powertrain to change too much – if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it – but the hybrid will get a “more advanced hybrid system for a sportier driving experience and more capability,” according to Honda, so expect more power from that gas-electric system.

While the CR-V will be built at more locations than just the Canadian plant, the Ontario facility is going to be the lead plant across North America. That means that Honda of Canada Manufacturing will develop all the manufacturing processes and training for the CR-V, which will then be used by all other North American plants for their production.
