The Honda CR-V facelift is now here in Malaysia, with a new price tag of RM149,980, a premium of slightly over RM2k when you compared it to the outgoing pre-facelift model. However in return for the RM2k the equipment list has had some very important safety additions in my opinion. Here�s what�s new:- VSA stability control has been added to the vehicle.
- There are now a total of 4 airbags, up from the previous 2. The additional 2 are the two Occupant Position Detection System side airbags.
- New engine hood, fog lamps, upper and lower front bumper, front grille and 17 inch alloy wheel design.
- Four reverse sensors instead of two previously.
- A new in-car entertainment unit featuring USB input � which is found neatly tucked in the upper glove box.
- New fabric design for the seats.
- New seat-mounted fold-down arm rest which is wider.
- LCD screen in the middle of the meter cluster now has blue backlighting.
- Sound insulators enlarged and new seals added in dashboard, hood, inner fender, fender enclosure, rear door lining, rear side lining, cargo lid and wing mirror garnish.
- Revised suspension geometry � front caster trail from 20mm to 15mm, rear double wishbone damper settings revised and rear compliance bush shape improved.
Five colours are available � Alabaster Silver, Polish Metal, Crystal Black, Taffeta White and a new colour called Urban Titanium. Look after the jump for a hi-res gallery of the new CR-V facelift.
