4 Reasons The 2022 Honda CR-V May Be A Better Choice Than The 2022 Toyota RAV4
Both the 2022 Honda CR-V and 2022 Toyota RAV4 are solid choices for the compact SUV class. But the CR-V may have more upsides than the Toyota RAV4.
The 2022 Honda CR-V Has More Passenger and Cargo Space
Both the 2022 Honda CR-V and 2022 Toyota RAV4 look good inside, with a modern, stylish cabin that's quiet and spacious. Both SUVs can also fit up to five passengers but the CR-V hits all the right spots with its roomy interior space. The CR-V has a total passenger volume of 105.9 cu-ft, compared to RAV4’s 98.9 cu-ft volume.
The CR-V and the RAV4 both offer almost the same legroom for the front seats but the difference is significant for the rear seats. The CR-V has 40.4 inches of rear legroom while the RAV4 only gets 37.8 inches of rear legroom.
The 2022 CR-V also offers more cargo space than the RAV4. With the rear seats folded down flat and nice, the CR-V provides a sizable 75.8 cu-ft of storage space versus the 69.8 cu-ft storage space for the RAV4. This is huge enough to fit 10 carry-on suitcases!
The 2022 Honda CR-V Earned the 2022 IHS Top Safety Pick Award
Another reason to pick the 2022 CR-V over the 2022 RAV4 is the level of safety that the CR-V brings. The CR-V snagged the most coveted 2022 TOP SAFETY PICK rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) in recognition of its excellent crash-safety performance. The CR-V also received 2021 Best Compact SUV for the Money award by US News.
The 2022 Honda CR-V Has A More Premium Cabin
You’ll find comfortable seats inside the RAV4, but the CR-V has a more upscale interior. We love the faux-wood accents, chromed plastic, and brushed-satin finishes that make the CR-V feel like a luxury SUV without the hefty price tag. The seats are ergonomically sculpted, making for a comfortable ride on long drives.
Experts Pick the 2022 Honda CR-V as the Better Choice Overall
While the RAV4 offers excellent fuel economy and a more muscular exterior, Edmunds picks the 2022 Honda CR-V as the better choice overall. The CR-V offers a more stylish interior made with premium materials, a more classy presence, and bigger cargo space. Between the CR-V and RAV4, the Honda CR-V is a more practical and versatile SUV overall, especially for drivers who are always on the go.
