Anyone know why was some Hondas in these years called Euro R?

No idea, perhaps something to do with Europe's "higher status". Wouldn't be the first time a Japanese or American company tries to make their cars "European" or in some way connected to Europe.

Funny we had this conversation. Honda stopped selling the CR-V in Japan in August, because the Vezel was vastly outselling it and apparently stole a lot of its potential buyers.

Well there's only a short time gap between the SLS and the Mercedes-AMG GT. I think the La Supra is difficult to add as it is a custom built car.

It's a spiritual successor to the Beat according to Honda, not a direct one.

I don't think cars in this segment are all that popular in Japan. Ever since the subcompact crossovers started (CX-3, Vezel, Juke, RVR, New Escudo, XV), these cars have lost a lot of sales in Japan, where big interior size in a small exterior size is extremely important because of how taxes work.

It is true. One of Top Gear magazine reporters was in Japan few years ago, and in his article he mentioned that on week spend in Japan he saw 3 SUVs in total.

Am I the only one who finds it strange that Honda hasn't updated it's top selling CUV in it's home country, while it's facelifted version is available in pretty much every other market it's sold in?

I mean, it's one of only a handful of JDM Hondas that DON'T wear the brand's new corporate front fascia styling in some way, shape, or form, with the others being the CR-Z (which was updated last year), the Legend (not as easy to do, being a rebadged Acura), and the Vamos and Vamos Hobio (both being designs older than the CR-V).

Quick look at competitors: Nissan X-Trail (since 2013, recently got a hybrid model), Mazda CX-5 (since 2012, facelift in 2015), Mitsubishi Outlander (since 2012, major facelift in 2015, has a hybrid), Suzuki Escudo 2.4 (since 2006, last updated in 2012), Subaru Forester (since 2012, facelift in 2015), Toyota RAV4 (since 2005, facelift in 2008), Toyota Harrier (since 2013, has a hybrid)

So I think that the Vezel is heavily outselling the CR-V on its home market, and that the CR-V is now destined to be another RAV4, which is not being updated at all.

This car debuted in 1970, a year after the sedan. In 1971 it lost the 1300 in its name (similar to the sedan a year before), and it was split up into the "Dynamic Series" with the four headlights (containing the SL, GL, GT and GTL trims) and the "Golden Series" which got the front of the facelifted sedan (containing the Custom and Deluxe trims).

I'm honestly surprised they don't bring this to the North American market, since both of the other cars on the same platform, the Fit and HR-V/Vezel are sold here, and I'm sure that they could easily add it to their new production facility in Mexico, where the Fit and HR-V are built.

That, plus the fact that just about all of the Fit's competitors are sold in sedan form (Fiesta, Sonic, Versa, Rio, Accent), the only exceptions being the Mazda2 (though the sedan version of that is coming here as the Scion iA) and Toyota Yaris.

I've done a couple of hybrid cars now, and it seems that most of them are petrol-powered with electric assistance, but some (like the Accord and Alphard) are able to switch between petrol and electric mode. The Alphard for example has 150hp from its petrol engine, but the two electric motors provide 211hp.
