Honda’s SUV range covers an unusually broad spectrum. There is an urban-sized crossover, two distinct family-friendly choices, a rugged two-row adventure vehicle, a spacious three-row SUV and a fully electric model. The important part is not simply deciding that you want a Honda SUV, it is identifying which one best matches the way you carry passengers, cover kilometres and spend your weekends.
For 2027, Honda Canada has published complete information for the HR-V and CR-V. At the time of writing, the company’s Canadian website still presents the Passport, Pilot and Prologue as 2026 models. Those three remain part of the current Honda SUV range, but their final 2027 specifications, trims and prices should be confirmed with Lamontagne Auto before publication or purchase.

2027 Honda HR-V: Best for the City
The HR-V is the natural starting point. Its footprint is easy to manage on crowded streets, yet its cabin seats five and provides up to 1,559 litres of cargo room with the rear seat folded. Every version uses a 2.0-litre four-cylinder producing 158 hp and 138 lb-ft of torque with a continuously variable transmission. Combined fuel consumption is rated at 8.3 L/100 km with front-wheel drive or 8.7 L/100 km with Real Time AWD.
The HR-V is especially well suited to:
- Urban commuters who want an elevated seating position
- Couples or small families that value flexible cargo space
- Buyers seeking a more accessible entry into the Honda SUV range
- Drivers who want available all-wheel drive without moving to a larger vehicle
Four configurations are offered: LX 2WD, LX AWD, Sport and EX-L. The LX focuses on value, the Sport adds assertive styling, and the EX-L brings the richest comfort package.
2027 Honda CR-V: The Best All-Rounder
The CR-V occupies the heart of the range because it combines manageable dimensions with greater passenger and cargo flexibility. Gas models use a 1.5-litre turbocharged four-cylinder with 190 hp and 179 lb-ft, while hybrid models pair a 2.0-litre Atkinson-cycle engine with two electric motors for 204 combined hp and 247 lb-ft. Official combined consumption can be as low as 7.8 L/100 km for a front-wheel-drive gas model and 6.4 L/100 km for a hybrid with Real Time AWD.
Its Canadian lineup is particularly broad: LX 2WD, LX AWD, Sport, Sport Hybrid, TrailSport Hybrid, EX-L Hybrid and Touring Hybrid. A standard 9-inch touchscreen across the range makes even the entry model feel current. The hybrid-heavy upper half gives buyers several ways to combine stronger response with lower consumption. The TrailSport Hybrid adds all-terrain tires and rugged styling for drivers who regularly visit cottages, trailheads or unpaved roads.
Honda Passport: Best for Five-Person Adventures
The current Passport is more trail-focused, with standard i-VTM4 all-wheel drive, seven drive modes, 210 mm of ground clearance and a towing capacity of up to 2,268 kg. Its 3.5-litre V6 develops 285 hp and 262 lb-ft through a 10-speed automatic transmission.
Rather than fitting in a third row, the five-seat Passport dedicates its rear section to passengers, equipment and underfloor storage. It suits outdoor-oriented households that carry recreational gear or a trailer but do not need seven or eight seats.
Honda Pilot: Best for Larger Families
The Pilot is the passenger-space specialist. It accommodates seven or eight people, while selected versions use a removable second-row middle seat that stores beneath the cargo floor. Its 285-hp V6, i-VTM4 all-wheel drive and 2,268-kg maximum towing rating add genuine capability, but its central advantage is adaptability.
Choose the Pilot when the third row will be used regularly, when carpooling is part of the weekly routine or when one vehicle must handle both family travel and towing.
Honda Prologue: Best for Going Fully Electric
The Prologue brings smooth electric response, quiet operation and no gasoline stops. The current Canadian model is an all-wheel-drive, five-passenger SUV offered in EX, EX-L and Touring trims. It best suits households with dependable access to home or workplace charging.
Ultimately, the HR-V is the city-friendly choice, the CR-V offers the broadest appeal, the Passport favours adventure, the Pilot prioritizes passengers and the Prologue provides a transition to electric driving. A back-to-back visit to Lamontagne Auto can answer the question that specifications cannot: which seating position, cargo layout and driving character feel right for you?
