For India, the facelifted car, which will come here as a special edition, will continue using the 2.0-litre naturally-aspirated petrol engine from the current model. This unit is good for 154hp and 189Nm of torque and it comes paired with a CVT gearbox as standard. The current CR-V was available with a diesel engine option in front-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive configurations, however, with the transition to BS6, these variants were dropped from the line-up.
