Press Release Body = San Leandro, C.A: San Leandro Honda, the leading Honda
Dealership in San Leandro, California, presents Honda CR-V EX trim level, which is
now available in a two-wheel-drive (2WD) version. The enhanced value and increased
fuel economy broaden popular entry SUV\'s appeal.

The popular Honda CR-V EX trim level is now available in a two-wheel-drive (2WD)
version. Until now, the choice of 2WD or four-wheel-drive (4WD) has been exclusive
to the LX trim level, and the expansion of 2WD into the more upscale and
full-featured EX trim level provides an added dimension of value and fuel economy.

The CR-V EX 2WD provides the same level of premium features as the CR-V EX 4WD
including alloy wheels, moonroof, a 6-speaker audio system with 6-disc changer,
steering wheel-mounted audio controls, outside temperature gauge and privacy glass.
A 5-speed automatic transmission is standard on the CR-V EX 2WD which achieves a
city/highway EPA fuel economy rating of 23/29 (up from 22/27 on 4WD models with an
automatic transmission). The manufacturers suggested retail price is $22,500. The
destination and handling charge is $550.

\"Two-wheel-drive models comprise an increasing portion of the entry SUV mix,\" said
John Mendel, senior vice president of American Honda. \"Adding two-wheel-drive to the
CR-V\'s EX trim level helps to expand the appeal of one of our most popular SUV\'s.\"

In accordance with Honda\'s industry-leading \"Safety for Everyone\" initiative, all
CR-Vs come equipped with an extensive list of standard safety equipment including
front driver\'s and front passenger\'s airbags, driver\'s side airbag and front
passenger\'s side airbag with Occupant Position Detection System (OPDS), side curtain
airbags, Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA), and Anti-Lock Brakes (ABS).
