Default New CRV smells hot

Today we just bought my wife a 2019 CRV EX. When she got home from work after her 25 mile commute home on the highway we noticed that the outside of the CRV smelled hot. It was almost a burning smell. I was just wondering if this is common in a new CRV and how long does it last before it goes away? Thank for your comments in advance.

Make sure you dont have the parking brake on or anything. You'll notice some random smells of things breaking in, brakes getting used, tires, engine etc but just give it a once over
