it says in the manual that this vehicle was not intended for off-road use. if winter conditions are off-road-ish, it might be a bad idea to get a CR-V.































Realtime 4WD just means that the 4WD only kicks in when the front wheels start slipping. in usual urban conditions, it's never used.































I suggest you try looking for a Subaru Forester instead, or an Impreza.
