The sizes you need are: front driver-side blade 26 inches, front passenger-side blade 19 inches, and rear blade 12 inches. These are the standard OEM-equivalent sizes for the 2020 Honda CR-V, with variations being rare but possible across markets; this article details front and rear blade sizes and provides quick replacement tips.
Front Wiper Sizes
Before listing the sizes, note that the CR-V uses a different length blade on the driver's side than on the passenger side. Use this pair for a proper fit on a 2020 CR-V.
- Driver side blade: 26 inches
- Passenger side blade: 19 inches
These sizes apply to most 2020 CR-V models (including LX, EX, EX-L, and Touring) sold in the United States and Canada. If you are in a different market, confirm with your owner's manual or dealer. Using the wrong size can leave portions of the windshield uncovered and put extra strain on the wiper system.
Rear Wiper Size
The CR-V's rear wiper is a single blade and is typically 12 inches for 2020 models.
- Rear: 12 inches
When replacing, verify that the attachment type matches your current blade (clip-on or hook), and ensure the blade curve and connector are compatible with your specific trim.
Replacement tips
To ensure a proper fit and lasting performance, follow these quick steps for replacing both front and rear blades.
- Check the owner's manual or a trusted retailer’s fit guide to confirm exact blade lengths for your market and trim.
- Choose the blade type (beam vs conventional) based on climate and driving conditions; beam blades often perform better in snow and icy conditions.
- Replace one blade at a time to avoid mixing sizes or connectors.
- Test the new blades at low speed and during the park position to ensure full contact and no streaking.
Following these steps helps ensure reliable visibility and safe driving in varying weather.
Summary: For a 2020 Honda CR-V, the front wiper sizes are 26 inches on the driver’s side and 19 inches on the passenger’s side, with a 12-inch rear blade. Always verify fit against your specific market and trim, and consider beam-style blades for better performance in adverse conditions.
