Two of the most popular compact crossovers on the planet face off, and the more spacious and refined of the pair turns out to be the clear winner.
If you're scrolling through the never-ending list of compact crossovers available today, we understand if you're feeling overwhelmed. But two names on that list likely stand out as comforting, familiar choices, largely because the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4 basically invented this segment when they first arrived in the 1990s. And they're still going strong today, with both consistently ranking among the bestselling vehicles in the U.S.
But the two cars' acceleration performance is similar, with the 190-hp Honda getting to 60 mph in 8.1 seconds and the 203-hp Toyota hitting the mark in 8.3 seconds.That said, we still prefer driving the CR-V to the RAV4 overall, as it offers a better ride and handling balance and a bit more refinement. The CR-V outgripped and outbraked the RAV4 at our test track, though the Toyota's all-terrain tires likely hurt it in this regard.
