Exterior Features

Smart Entry and Push Button Start (EX and above)

What’s the Benefit?

The Smart Entry system makes it exceptionally easy and convenient to unlock, drive and relock the CR-V.

The Feature:

Select CR-V trims use a Smart Entry system with push button start.

  • The Smart Entry system allows the driver to:
    • Walk up to the vehicle, touch the door handle and open the door
    • Start the engine and shut it off at the end of the trip
    • Get out and touch the LOCK sensor on the door handle to secure the car—all without ever touching a key 
  • Likewise, the driver can open the tailgate with just a touch of the release button located above the license plate—it only requires that the driver possess the key fob.
  • And the Walk Away Auto Lock® feature, when enabled, can even eliminate the step of touching the LOCK sensor on the door handle.
  • To enable Walk Away Auto Lock, watch the How-To video for the appropriate trim.
