Drive type

Wheel drive type: 4x4 - AWD (all-wheel-drive)Front wheel drive (FWD)

Honda CR-V has 4x4: Vehicle features automatic four-wheel drive system that sends torque to front wheels under typical conditions. Electronically controlled multi-plate clutch transfers torque to rear wheels when slipping is detected. The all-wheel drive system constantly communicates with the VSA dynamic stabilization system and the electric power steering to maintain full control of the vehicle, good traction and maneuverability in any road conditions.

Ground clearance: 165 mm (6.5 inches)185 mm (7.3 inches)
Because of the higher ground clearance, Lexus NX can perform better on bad roads - it can go over higher obstacles and bumps.
