The Small Details

We’ve got to hand it to Honda, the 2020 CR-V Hybrid is excellent. However, there are a few little things that the RAV4 Hybrid does better, and when considered all together, we think gives the RAV4 Hybrid the edge over the CR-V Hybrid. The RAV4 has better gas mileage; not by much, true, but enough that you’ll notice it if you do a lot of city driving or have particularly long commutes. Similarly, the CR-V Hybrid cargo bay comes in at 33.2 cu-ft behind the second row and 68.7 cu-ft behind the first row. The RAV4 bests those numbers, with 37.5 cu-ft behind the second row and 69.8 cu-ft behind the first. You’re unlikely to notice the difference behind the first row, but behind the second row is a another story. A day of running errands will likely see your cargo bay less cramped in the RAV4 Hybrid.
