The 2026 Honda CR-V TrailSport Has A Problem (Real World MPG)

The 2026 Honda CR-V TrailSport is an engineering paradox. Honda took their efficient hybrid powertrain and bolted on heavy all terrain tires and off road suspension. It’s a bit like deep frying organic vegetables...does the result taste good, or does it ruin the health benefits? In this deep dive review, we test the 2026 CR-V TrailSport to see if the off road upgrades destroy the one thing you buy a hybrid for: fuel economy. We reveal the real world mileage, test the handling limits of the all terrain tires, and dig into owner intel to find out what living with this crossover is actually like. Is the TrailSport just an appearance package, or is it the most capable compact SUV you can buy?
