2026 Honda CR-V TrailSport Hybrid: The SUV of the Summer for Exploring the Region

With its gravel roads winding towards Rivière-des-Mille-Îles Park, its forest roads leading to northern Lanaudière, and its country roads taking us through numerous villages, the Lachenaie region offers exactly the kind of terrain for which the 2026 Honda CR-V TrailSport Hybrid was designed. This new model combines a rugged design and all-terrain tires with Honda’s dual-motor hybrid system, a first for the CR-V lineup.


The CR-V is already one of the best-selling hybrid SUVs in Canada. The 2026 TrailSport Hybrid is for buyers who want to go a little further than the pavement, without sacrificing the comfort and efficiency that Honda’s hybrid technology provides every day.

All CR-Vs sold in Canada are assembled at the Honda Canada plant in Alliston, Ontario.

An Award-Winning Powertrain

The TrailSport Hybrid inherits Honda’s fourth-generation dual-motor hybrid system. This powertrain combines two large electric motors with a gasoline engine to produce 204 horsepower and 247 lb-ft of torque, with significantly better fuel economy than a conventional all-wheel-drive SUV. Real-time all-wheel drive with an intelligent control system is standard, making it easier to manage traction at low speeds on challenging surfaces.


For the 2026 model year, Honda has enhanced traction management in off-road mode below 14 km/h. The system detects differences in wheel speed and redistributes power to the tires with the most grip, while braking those that are slipping. A discreet yet effective solution for gravel roads or muddy spring trails.


The TrailSport Option, Inside and Out


The TrailSport package is visually distinguished by silver front trim with a protective skirt, a piano black rear spoiler, black door handles and window surrounds, and orange TrailSport logos on the grille and tailgate. The 18-inch wheels are fitted with Continental CrossContact ATR all-terrain tires (235/60R18) that offer enhanced traction in winter, on mud, sand, and rocks, while remaining quiet on the highway.


Inside, the TrailSport ambiance continues with amber ambient lighting in the footrests, center console, door handles, and cupholders. The front seats feature the TrailSport logo embroidered on the headrests, and the all-season rubber floor mats bear the same badge. The exclusive exterior color, Ash Green Metallic, launched on the 2026 Passport TrailSport, is available on this package.


Standard equipment includes:

Heated front seats and heated steering wheel

Power sunroof and liftgate

10.2-inch digital instrument cluster

Nine-inch touchscreen with wireless compatibility for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto

Wireless charging and hill descent control

Standard Honda Sensing technology

As with the entire 2026 CR-V lineup, the Honda Sensing suite of safety features is standard. It includes automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, forward collision warning, adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, and blind spot monitoring. These features are especially useful on long country roads or on Highway 15 when returning from weekend trips up north.


The Summer Choice for Active Families in Lachenaie

Whether it's for a family outing to Rivière-des-Mille-Îles Park, a camping trip in the Laurentians, or simply running errands around town, the 2026 CR-V TrailSport Hybrid offers a rare balance of versatility, ruggedness, and fuel efficiency. Its enhanced off-road capability doesn't compromise its highway fuel economy.

The team at Lallier Honda 640 in Lachenaie invites you to discover this new model in person. Book an appointment with a sales consultant for a complete presentation and to learn about the available options to suit your needs. And of course, schedule a test drive to see why more and more families are choosing a CR-V TrailSport to meet their requirements.
