For those of you who don't have TPMS and are concerned about it you may want to consider FOBO. It's an inexpensive, easy to install and use solution. I use them on my motorcycle, and they are great. You can check you tire pressure on an app on your phone.

The one you reference are not FOBO brand. They may be ok or they be a cheap knock-off. My recommendation is for the FOBO device.

Just checking back in. Traded the CRV six weeks ago for a 25 Tuscon Hybrid Limited. Very much an upgrade in many areas. Interior layout, ride, comfort, quietness and more features than any CRV trim. Love all the cameras. Don't get paranoid now when backing out of a tight parking space in a busy lot. I know the long term value is not the same as Honda but in my mind Honda needs to up its game in order to stay competitive. I've owned 3 CRVs and 7 Hondas in total so this was not a decision taken lightly. At the end of the day I just didn't want to drive a car that in my mind was the same as what I already had but missing some of the features. Remember YMMV.

I'm not trying to apportion blame - but I feel that Honda Canada do have an obligation to at least make their manuals accurate - no? Or at least my saleperson could have given me the heads-up about recent exclusions.

I don't want numbers for individual tires - I want anything that warns me of low tire pressure, like my 2018 Touring had - as a minimum. The 2025 doesn't even have that. Like I said, I research a lot but there are certain things that I simply expected to be included (or rather did not expect to be excluded). I would have thought some kind of tire pressure monitoring, having been present for years previously, would have been included.

I am aware that I can have a garage door opener added as an option, but again I was surprised it wasn't there. I'm not paying $300+ for that feature - and I solved it by buying another visor-clip door opener for $10 from Amazon.

The purpose of my post was to highlight some of the exclusions I had the misfortune to have overlooked - not that it would be a deal breaker, but maybe could have helped me in the negotiation stages of my purchase.

2 friends of mine went to buy CRVs and ended up getting Passports due to all the exclusions/removals of things many of of consider standards. I pray I don't need a new vehicle anytime soon; if I do I'll probably be getting a Toyota due to the changes i'm not crazy about.

Truly depends on what your priorities are and it clearly showed that you wanted value for money with getting more features for slightly less price which I respect and understand. When I bought the CRV hybrid early last year, my focus was reliability and longevity plus resale value. Hence I wanted a Rav4 hybrid or a Lexus hybrid but they were very hard to get with 1-1.5yr wait at the time so went with Honda. Both brands have been in the hybrid game for over 2 decades and can trust them better than Hyundai/Kia which have only been in the game for way less. If you plan on keeping them for only 5-8yrs then should be fine but I just cant trust Hyundai/Kia for long term reliability and longevity given their track record plus I have family friends that have had major issues with them (engine and transmission failures).

I'll trade you my indirect TPMS equipped 2025 Honda CR-V Hybrid for your low washer fluid level sensor equipped Honda CR-V Hybrid.

So true. Unbelievable that in 2025 this doesn’t come included. Especially since it holds like a cup of fluid.

You seem unhappy about "exclusions" you claim not to have been informed about, as though, it is Honda Canada's fault for not telling you. I always thought that was what pre-purchase research was for. I managed to do it before purchasing my 2024 Hybrid Touring. For the couple of minor enquiries I hadm my salesperson was very forthcoming and provided all of the answer to my questions.

While the manual for the Cdn model does indicate the vehicle has a TPMS system, it does NOT say that it provides you with numbers for individual tires and their actual pressures.
The system uses the tone rings from the ABS system to measure tire rotation differences, to alert to check tire pressures yourself.
The Homelink garage door opener mirror is now an option that you can have installed.

is it possible to have the tpms working in Canada
we were told not by our dealership
we also have a 2024 hybrid touring and have been desperately searching for how to have tpms on our crv which we need because we are going to the US to study

Why does coming to the US to study make it a desperate need to have TPMS? My second car is 1994 Honda Del Sol and it doesn't have it and I've gotten along just fine now for 31 years without it.

Little off topic but I drove a 26 Elite Passport and was really impressed with how it drove and the quietness of it. Also, Honda finally has properly equipped a vehicle but only the Elite. It will cost you over 50k though

A good quality tire gauge does the job for me.

The new passport is definitely a nice vehicle with more towing and off-roading capability vs the CRV which Honda got right. It has garnered a ton of high praises from auto journalists and reviewers and not surprised by this…

I research the death out of things before I buy them, but there are a few things that slipped past me when I bought my 2025 Touring Hybrid (Canadian Edition) last week, that I am just discovering. I wonder how many other people realize these issues before buying? I am switchiing from a 2018 Touring, that had all these features. Who'd have thought that 7 years later they'd be removing them?

• No spare tire!
• No TPMS! Although if you Google "2025 CRV Touring Hybrid Canada TPMS" the A.I. response says that it is included. The PDF manual also says it's included AND the owners manual (Canadian Edition) says it's included. I wonder what Honda Canada would have to say about that if I pushed the issue - probably a disclaimer somewhere in the smallprint that says they can add/remove features whenever they feel like it, without notice. I guess I'll end up getting an after market thing from Amazon. So not only do I not know if my tire is punctured, I also have nothing to swap it for! Bizarre.
• Panoramic Roof. Gone.
• Garage door opener. Gone.
• LED Turn signals. Gone. Replaced with bulbs (that may as well be candles) that glow slowly and dimly, on and off like a 1920 Model T Ford. I immediately replaced these with aftermarket LED's (Lasfit T3 Canbus). Took 30 seconds and look fantastic. I'd say these are essential for good visibility, especially when caught in blizzard conditions here in Canada.

Anyone else missing these features? I realize we (in Canada) get the heated steering wheel and heated rear seats etc, but it would have been nice to get a heads up about the exclusions on the new models. View attachment 174641

Yup! I traded my 2020 hybrid Escape for a 2025 hybrid CRV Sport Touring and feel I downgraded my vehicle for these reasons and worse MPG, not even close to what was advertised. My CRV has 3100 miles on it and is past the break in period.

At least you’re getting a much reliable and more reputable vehicle? That can’t be a downgrade though…

only complaint from by friend who traded in an older CRV for the passport was the significant change of lower gas mileage.
