2026 Honda CR-V Hybrid TrailSport: Rugged Capability Meets Hybrid Efficiency
May 27 2025,
For the 2026 model year, Honda pushes its most popular hybrid SUV even further with the addition of the all-new CR-V Hybrid TrailSport. Already the best-selling hybrid SUV in Canada, the CR-V strengthens its position with this adventure-ready version, offering bold styling and enhanced off-road capability. Like all CR-Vs sold in Canada, the 2026 TrailSport Hybrid is assembled at Honda of Canada Mfg. in Alliston, Ontario.
A First for Honda: TrailSport Meets Hybrid Power
The 2026 CR-V Hybrid TrailSport marks the first time Honda combines its rugged TrailSport identity with its dual-motor hybrid-electric powertrain. Standard real-time all-wheel drive, Continental CrossContact ATR all-terrain tires, and enhanced low-speed traction management give the vehicle added confidence in challenging conditions like mud, snow, and gravel.
Distinctive Design with a Muscular Edge
Visually, the TrailSport Hybrid sets itself apart with a bolder front grille, silver front bumper accents, blackout door handles and window trim, and exclusive orange TrailSport badging. It rides on exclusive 18-inch Shark Grey wheels and introduces a new Canyon River Green Metallic paint option—exclusive to this version.
An Interior That Balances Comfort and Adventure
Inside, the CR-V Hybrid TrailSport offers a refined yet rugged atmosphere. TrailSport-embroidered headrests, amber ambient lighting, and heavy-duty rubber floor mats embossed with the TrailSport logo highlight its outdoor spirit. Standard features include:
- 9-inch colour touchscreen
- 10.2-inch fully digital instrument cluster
- Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
- Wireless phone charging
- Heated steering wheel
- Power liftgate
A Proven Hybrid Powertrain
Like other CR-V hybrids, the TrailSport uses Honda’s fourth-generation dual-motor hybrid system, delivering a combined 204 horsepower and 247 lb-ft of torque. This setup provides excellent fuel economy and confident performance, whether you're navigating city streets or exploring off the beaten path.
Safety Comes Standard
True to Honda’s reputation, the 2026 CR-V Hybrid TrailSport offers a full suite of standard safety features, including:
- Honda Sensing® technologies (forward collision warning, blind spot monitoring, lane keeping assist, and more)
- Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) body structure
- Ten airbags, including next-gen front, rear side, and front knee airbags
These safety innovations provide added confidence, whether you're commuting in the city or heading out on weekend adventures.
A More Versatile CR-V Than Ever
With the addition of the Hybrid TrailSport, the 2026 Honda CR-V continues to evolve—now appealing to drivers who want efficiency, capability, and versatility all in one package. It reflects Honda’s ongoing commitment to innovation, safety, and electrification, while staying true to the reliability and practicality that have made the CR-V a Canadian favourite for decades.
