Honda released new pictures of the new-gen CR-V SUV as the concept version goes on display at Orange County Auto Show in California.

The final production model is apparently set for debut at 2011 Los Angeles Auto Show in November.

The concept car here is a preview of the production version, which as it’s the case with Honda will look exactly the same as the concept. Well, the real car will probably get less shiny and smaller wheels, and normal lights instead of these cool tinted ones.

The new CR-V has become bigger and chunkier, which must mean there is more room inside for passengers and their luggage. There is no details available yet on the engine lineup and the interior.

So, if you were thinking of buying a Kia Sportage, you better wait a few more months and check this thing out.

“The 2012 CR-V Concept strongly hints at the more dynamic and refined look of the upcoming model,” commented John Mendel, executive vice president of sales for American Honda. “As the best-selling SUV in each of the past four years, the 2012 CR-V promises to build on its highly successful formula with even more style, innovative features and higher fuel economy.”
