My take: The CR-V RS e:HEV AWD is particularly attractive if you want a premium five-seater SUV with strong electric-motor response, AWD traction, upscale cabin equipment, and impressive official urban fuel-efficiency figures. Keep in mind that the published 21.3 km/L is a test result, not a guaranteed real-world consumption figure; actual mileage depends on traffic, driving style, road conditions, and air-conditioning use.
