2026 Honda CR-V Lease Deals Now Available
The Honda CR-V has been a staple in the automaker’s lineup for ages, rubbing shoulders with the HR-V in the compact SUV crowd and towering over Honda’s smaller crossovers. For 2026, Honda sticks to the tried-and-true recipe: five seats, plenty of cargo room, and a 190-horsepower turbo four-cylinder under the hood for the gas models.
If you’re not ready to put a ring on a new CR-V, leasing is your way in. Right now, Honda’s website is dangling an August offer for the 2026 CR-V 2WD LX: $289 per month for 36 months, with $4,199 due up front. Mark your calendar, though – the deal disappears after September 8, 2026.

Honda’s Lease Deals for August
At the moment, the lease deals are only for the 2WD LX trim. The numbers? Honda’s math starts with a sticker price of $32,370 (destination included), but the lease is calculated off a net cap cost of $26,935.06.
| Trim | Monthly Payment | Lease Term | Due at Signing | Annual Mileage |
| 2026 CR-V 2WD LX | $289 | 36 months | $4,199 | 10,000 miles |
You’ll need to be a qualified customer in the right state to snag this deal through Honda Financial Services. Taxes, fees, and all the usual extras aren’t included, and your local dealer might nudge the numbers up or down. At least there’s no security deposit to worry about.
You get 10,000 miles a year to play with, and if you go over, it’s 20 cents for every extra mile. When the lease is up, you can buy the CR-V for $20,716.80 if you’ve grown attached.

2026 Honda CR-V Highlights
If you’re shopping the gas-powered CR-V, the LX starts at $32,370 and the EX-L tops out at $36,850. All three trims – LX, EX, and EX-L – share the same 190-horsepower turbo 1.5-liter four-cylinder and a CVT. Front-wheel drive comes standard, but you can opt for all-wheel drive if you want a little extra grip.
Honda has sprinkled in some tech upgrades for 2026. Every CR-V now gets a 9-inch touchscreen in the center, finally ditching the old 7-inch unit. Wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and wireless phone charging are all standard now. If you spring for the EX-L, you also get a 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster.
Practicality is still the CR-V’s strong suit. You get 39 cubic feet of cargo space behind the second row, and the back seats have enough legroom for actual adults. Fuel economy is solid, too: 28 mpg city and 33 mpg highway for front-wheel drive, or 27/31 mpg if you go all-wheel drive.

Final Thoughts
The CR-V has never tried to be the flashiest or fanciest SUV on the block. Instead, it wins people over with smart interior space, easygoing road manners, simple tech, and that classic Honda reliability. If you’re cross-shopping the Mazda CX-50, Ford Bronco Sport, VW Tiguan, or Toyota RAV4, the CR-V is still a no-nonsense pick.
If you’re not looking to commit to an SUV for the long haul, leasing a CR-V could be a smart move. The $289 monthly payment is easy enough to swallow, but don’t forget about the $4,199 due at signing—always check the total cost, not just the monthly number.
