2025 Honda HR-V: Subcompact SUV

Honda’s subcompact offering for the 2025 model year comes in the form of the two-row, five-seater HR-V. You can get the 2025 HR-V in three distinct trims: the LX, Sport, and EX-L. This little vehicle packs a big punch with its 2.0L four-cylinder, producing 158 hp and 138 lb-ft of torque. Honda has not made any big changes for the 2025 HR-V compared to the outgoing model year, but it still comes packed with plenty of features, including three dynamic drive modes: Econ, Normal, and Snow.

Available in front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, the 2025 HR-V has an EPA-estimated fuel economy of 26 MPG in the city and 32 MPG on the highway in front-wheel drive, or 25 MPG in the city and 30 MPG on the highway in all-wheel drive.^[a] You have up to 24.4 cu.ft. of cargo volume in the rear cargo area or up to 55.1 cu.ft. of cargo volume if you opt to fold down the second row. Available dual-zone automatic climate control, a seven-inch or nine-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, and the full suite of the Honda Sensing safety systems give the HR-V a lot of value for its price. Plus, you have available luxury features like a one-touch power moonroof and remote connectivity.

2025 Honda CR-V: Compact SUV

The standard 2025 CR-V is available in three trims: the LX, EX, and EX-L. All three are powered by a 1.5L turbocharged four-cylinder that makes 190 hp and 179 lb-ft of torque. The CR-V is also a two-row, five-seater SUV, like the HR-V, but it’s slightly larger and is not only a good commuter vehicle but works well for Naperville drivers looking for a good family vehicle as well. This is made apparent with its excellent fuel economy in front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, managing an EPA-estimated 28 MPG in the city and 34 MPG on the highway in front-wheel drive, or 26 MPG in the city and 31 MPG on the highway in all-wheel drive.^[b]

The standard CR-V also features three drive modes: Econ, Normal, and Snow. So, you have a variety of options based on the weather and road conditions that can vary wildly from season to season in Naperville. You also have a good amount of cargo capacity inside, with up to 39.3 cu.ft. of space behind the second row and up to 76.5 cu.ft. of cargo capacity with the second row folded down. Full LED lighting, remote engine start, and a power tailgate add to the convenience factor. The CR-V shares the same infotainment stack as the HR-V but is available with a 10-way power leather driver seat with lumbar support and available driver memory settings, along with a four-way power front passenger seat. Bluetooth wireless streaming is standard across all trims, but SiriusXM satellite radio, HD Radio, and wireless charging are available only on the EX-L.

2025 Honda CR-V Hybrid: Compact SUV

The Honda CR-V Hybrid contains all of the features of the standard CR-V but with additional perks. It’s powered by a 2.0L four-cylinder with two electric motors, producing 204 hp and 247 lb-ft of torque. This gives the 2025 CR-V Hybrid impressive fuel economy, managing an EPA-estimated 43 MPG in the city and 36 MPG on the highway in front-wheel drive, or 40 MPG in the city and 34 MPG on the highway in all-wheel drive.^[b] This is a great option for drivers who regularly travel beyond Naperville for work and have to deal with a lot of the stop and go traffic in the city.

The CR-V Hybrid also differs from its gas-only counterpart in its trim lineup, which consists of the Sport Hybrid, Sport-L Hybrid, and Sport Touring Hybrid. The top-end trim comes with exclusive features not found on the standard CR-V, such as a Honda Satellite-Linked Navigation System with voice recognition support and Honda HD Digital Traffic. You also have exclusive access to the HondaLink subscription service and built-in Wi-Fi hotspot compatibility for wireless devices. Plus, the hybrid trims have access to a 320-watt audio system with eight speakers or a Bose Premium 12-speaker sound system. A heated steering wheel, ambient lighting, and rain-sensing wipers are also available for the CR-V Hybrid.

2025 Honda Passport: Midsize SUV

One of the consistent themes of Honda’s 2025 lineup of SUVs is that the brand has kept its offerings very streamlined when it comes to trims. The 2025 Passport is available in the EX-L, TrailSport, and Black Edition, featuring robust offerings as a two-row, five-seater midsize SUV. You have a lot of space and storage for your goods, including cargo management options to make use of the large 50.5 cu.ft. of cargo volume in the rear cargo area. However, if you fold down the rear seats, you have access to up to 100.8 cu.ft. of cargo volume, making it an excellent choice for Naperville residents looking for a good outdoor adventure vehicle for storing camping gear or hiking equipment with ease.

The 2025 Passport is powered by a 3.5L V6 that produces 280 hp and 262 lb-ft of torque and can tow up to 5,000 lbs. The Passport comes standard with all-wheel drive and manages an EPA-estimated fuel economy of 19 MPG in the city and 24 MPG on the highway.^[c] You also have three intelligent traction management options in the form of Snow, Sand, and Mud. There is the full Honda Sensing suite that is standard across all three trims, along with remote accessibility, push button start, and the HomeLink remote system. You have an available heated leather steering wheel and heated and ventilated leather-trimmed seats. Wireless phone charging, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, SiriusXM, HD Radio, and Bluetooth streaming all come standard and are usable through an eight-inch touchscreen. Wi-Fi hotspot connectivity and the Honda Satellite-Linked Navigation System are also available for the Passport.

2025 Honda Pilot: Three-Row SUV

The 2025 Pilot has received some noteworthy updates for the model year, bringing the three-row crossover up to Honda’s standards for an eight-seater SUV. The new Black Edition joins the most expansive trim lineup of Honda’s 2025 SUV lineup alongside the Sport, EX-L, TrailSport, Touring, and Elite. The Black Edition comes with gloss black 20-inch wheels, a gloss black grille, and other blackout elements around the exterior of the vehicle. It also features red stitching on the interior and unique red accent lighting around the cabin, with “Black Edition” embossed on the seats and floor mats.

The Pilot has recently received updated exterior styling to embrace its rugged appeal, and it’s powered by the same V6 as the Passport but with slightly higher stats, including 285 hp and 262 lb-ft of torque. You can get the Pilot in either front-wheel drive or intelligent all-wheel drive with available Trail Torque Logic. You have up to seven drive modes, including Normal, Econ, Sport, Snow, Tow, Trail, and Sand. You can tow up to 5,000 lbs and store up to 21.8 cu.ft. of cargo behind the third row or up to 111.8 cu.ft. of cargo if you fold down the second and third rows. Tri-zone automatic climate control comes standard, along with many of the other amenities found on the Passport. However, the Pilot features either a seven-inch or nine-inch touchscreen, depending on the trim, and comes standard with Bluetooth HandsFreeLink technology.
