I'm not so familiar with the CVT behavior in a Honda, but anyway, now with all that emissions and fuel-efficiency concerns this may be the reason for the cars with a CVT being tuned the way they are. Even in a certification test won't reflect real-world usage, there is no way to overcome it without the risk for the automaker to be under a scrutiny similar to what nearly led Volkswagen to bankruptcy due to the Dieselgate.
