Compact SUVs are becoming more and more popular by the day. And two of the most popular names in the compact SUV range are the 2021 Toyota RAV4 and the 2021 Honda CR-V. Today we are going to compare these two very popular models for you and then you can decide which one is better suited for your needs. Read this comparison between the 2021 Toyota RAV4 vs the 2021 Honda CR-V by Hesser Toyota in Janesville, WI!
2021 Toyota RAV4 | VS |
2021 Honda CR-V |
---|---|---|
$26,050 | Starting MSRP | $25,350 |
2.5L 4-cylinder | Engine | 1.5L |
8-Speed Shiftable Automatic | Transmission | Continuously Variable-Speed Transmission (CVT) |

The RAV4 has better performance specs with higher horsepower and torque whereas the CR-V has a slightly lower MSRP. But for this extra amount, Toyota RAV4 gives us a plethora of additional features that are not available in the CR-V. For example- the towing capacity of the 2021 Toyota RAV4 is 3,500 lbs. as compared to only 1,500 lbs. for the CR-V.
While both the SUVs have their own suite of intelligent safety features, the RAV4’s Toyota Safety Sense™ system is far more comprehensive than the Honda Sensing® system. Although, both of these systems are made standard in the respective SUVs. The Toyota Safety Sense™ system comes with an array of smart driver-assist features like- lane tracking assist, automatic high beams, backup camera with projected path, Safety Connect®, trailer sway control (TSC), Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC), and roadside assistance. Whereas the CR-V only has the forward collision warning (FCW), lane departure warning (LDW), collision mitigation braking system (CMBS), and road departure mitigation system (RDMS) made standard in the crossover SUV.
