I had a RAV4 Hybrid on order in January 2022 and finally received a 2023 RAV4 Hybrid LIMITED (Top of the Line) the 2nd week of December 2023. I LOVE this car and am getting 37 to 40 mpg in mixed driving. One thing you did not point out, I believe in the STATES the CRV does NOT come with a space saver spare tire but instead you get a can of FIX A FLAT and a compressor. I have been in plenty of situations where a tire is damaged so bad that you cannot use FIX A FLAT to fix it. The RAV4 comes with a space saver spare.
Bought 2023 Rav last month. Inside is clean and smooth. Lots of fun little details. Cruise control is phenomenal! Horsepower and drive is superb!
CRV is great I think for passengers + driver comfort.
My personal opinion Toyota vehicles are reliable but not feel good in case of driving and riding.
I test drove both. I would choose CRV.. much more spacious and so quiet. I would not mind spending an extra 5k over RAV4.
I agree with you 100%. I drove both and the CRV was a more smooth and quite ride.
Because it has underpowered 2.0 litre engine and uses more fuel.
I love how he kept his eyes on the road, a good example to all the viewers who drive.
He’s reading text 😂
Both the Toyota Rav 4 and the Honda CRV are great cars. I always have a hard time choosing one over the other. It depends on what works best for you. If I was looking for a roomy car with a comfortable ride, I would choose the Honda. But, if I wanted a little more horsepower and better fuel economy, then the Toyota would be my choice. The only thing about the Toyota is that the price seems to be more than an equally equipped Honda. On the other hand, the hybrid CRV does not include a spare tire.
Just went to the dealer. Honda definitely has the best interior of the both. It makes if seem like the Toyota’s interior is outdated and cheaper.
Honda tends to have better ergonomics.
Honda hybrid system is more refined and 1 -2 mpg less than the Toyota has no impact on me.
Honda's always focused more on comfort and space. Toyota focuses more on long term reliability and utility. Most people just want a point A to B toaster oven that will never break. Hence why Toyota always has the most sold units year after year. And Honda is right behind them.
@@rayvalero8580 right ☠️
I fkin LOVE the kias sportage hybrids interior its entertainment center is unbelievable but its missing adaptive cruise :( so im torn what to get
I have two weeks with my hybrid CR-V and I am very happy, it has very good power, it is quiet and I really like the exterior and interior design. $10K makes a big difference in the monthly payment if you think about buying it.
Same! I got the touring hybrid crv. LOVE it
Another great advantage of CRV is the 235 width tires vs 225 on RAV4
The only unsatisfying experience with these two vehicles is the buying experience at the scalpership. Dealers making it one of the worst experiences you will have to deal with in your life.
No mention of the fact that the engine in the Rav4 is both port injected and direct injected. This eliminates the issue of carbon build up that direct injected engines have..
I own a RAV4 hybrid XLE and upgrading to the limited. I ordered it in November and should be delivered in March. I wanted JBL audio and panoramic sunroof but had a changed options it would have been faster. When I test drive the CRV in 2021 it did not feel as solid as the Toyota. More road noise and felt cheaper quality. That may have changed but I don’t think I’ll ever switch.
You didn’t test drive the 2023 CRV Hybrid otherwise you would have loved it.
@@Glad2BGolden there were other reasons I didn’t go with Honda and the cost difference wasn’t one of them. Toyota has better options as well.
@@bernadetterichey9795 Okay so you just stayed with the Toyota brand. The cost of this Honda is to high for even me.
Consumer Report has 88 rating for CRV and 78 for RAV4. It is your choice.
toyotas will always win my heart
1.reliability
2.resell value
3.drives so smooth
4.cheap on maintence
5.amazing on gas
They’re also pretty fast un modified depending on who’s driving them.
Ha ha ha… you can say the exact same thing with Honda.
Looks like Honda has exhaust ports on the front. Can't unsee that now.
😂
That's so if one needs to back up out of a sticky situation, they can! Lol
The rav4 gets better gas mileage but it drives like a cheap car and is louder. The crv is bigger more comfortable and quiet drive.
It sounds like the crv has “simulated” shifting which is my biggest complaint with my current car. I much rather have the transmission keep the belt in the CVT at the optimal position and the engine at a constant RPM then to have it fling the RPMs up and down to make it “sound good”
Excellent review. Personally, I am turned off by the black wheels and black interior of the Honda, even though I like the CRV design utility. I would probably buy the Rav4 based on my previous Toyota experience.
I agree with you. I currently have a black leather interior and it gets very hot sitting outside. I’d only go with cloth seats on the CRV. At least Toyota offers different interior color choices.
Rust protection recommendations for hybrids?
The best advantage for choosing the CRV is that you will not have to look at the scowling face on the Rav4 each day.
BEING A PROUD OWNER OF A RAV4 TRAIL. its amazing
Great Review...Thanks
Thank you, Shari, for the great content and unbiased insights.
I have tested driven both RAV4 Hybrid and CRV Hybrid. Both are amazing vehicles with great reliability and aggressive look.
CRV definitely has an edge in the areas of control, smooth drive, and build quality, but the pricing because of being offered only in Touring trim for 2023 and Touring/EXL for 2024 models makes it too expensive. With a few thousands added, one can either get a 7 seater Toyota Highlander Hybrid or a Lexus (a luxury brand).
I personally opted for RAV4 XLE with Premium Package, which, in my opinion, is the best value for the price; even though there is some long wait time.
I just want to know. like toyota hybrid, the engine shut up when in complete stop or drive less than 5kmph. did honda do the same?
Great video! I like the interior of the Toyota so much more! I owned a 2017 CRV and achieved 32mpg over the 130K miles I owned it. Neither of these companies are producing the reliability they used to, and we are used to. My pick would be the CRV. Honda is not as big, so they can correct faster. However, that being said, I own a couple of Toyota's and a couple of Honda's. Both make a great product! Toyota is all about reliability, Honda is all about engine technology. It is a toss up.
The Honda is more equipped over the rav4. To get the rav4 up to the same level of features makes it more expensive than the Honda.
Great review Shari, it is good to know the Honda CRV Hybrid uses the naturally aspirated engine instead of the Turbo engine.
Honda CRV priced themselves out of the market and it is actually contending with Venza instead of Toyota RAV4.
Toyota RAV4 really takes the crown for me without any exception. They stayed true to the line up starting from 1st generation up to 2023.
Good review but can we have a comparision betwen the Venza XLE and the CR-V Hybrid as the price are the same.
CRV otra fragancia sin dudas.
Mucho más bella y mejor.
Both are so attractive and appealing to many potential buyers who want great all around modern transportation. RAV4 is my choice but CRV is just as good.
I take the RAV4 XLE
Leaning towards the CRV sport touring... and if I do get it, I'm breaking out the black Plasti-dip and blacking out those two ugly chrome exhaust tips looking, that are located in the front.
Exactly what I'm going to do lmao except I'm going to vinyl wrap it
rav4 is so cramped for driver, love the space crv offers and thats what i will get if i had the money :).
Can you do a comparison of the Rav 4 hybrid and the Rav 4 Prime (plug in hybrid). Thanks
great review!
CRV has roomier back seats and cargo, and is much nicer to drive.
My pick is a used Mazda CX-5 for a lower price and very good steering feel, good speakers and independent rear suspension. Very reliable, maybe eventually the intake valves need cleaning with walnut shell blasting. Some reviews pick the Kia Sportage hybrid, but it is more of a reliability gamble compared to the Toyota and Honda. The Kia Niro costs less, with less room, but is a lot cheaper used for the previous model.
Independent rear suspension? Do you even know what are you talking about? What suspension does the RAV4 has in your knowledge?
😃👍
Awesome comparison. Thanks
Good vid. May be the comp should be Venza vs CRV, not the Rav4. Prices and finishes are closer, albeit Venza being a lot more cramped... any chance to see that in near future ?
I bought the RAV4
Awesome video, Could you pls do a comparison video on 2023 Highlander vs the 2023 Honda Pilot?
Know how to make a vehicle reliable? Put in 200hp and the entire drivetrain and the superstructure is so understressed from 0-60 in a slow motion 7.3 seconds that it’s going to last forever…it just can’t be broken.
Do rav4 vs crv drag race for us to choose what's best for us
could you do same review between 2023 Venza & Honda CR-V?
Just comparing power train only, Rav4 offers 3 electric motors, Honda only 2. Honda's transmission whith that tranfer case has to work harder to turn the driveshaft to move the rear differential= more fuel consumption.
Is it just me or does it seem with every vid the toyota has the better body but honda has the better interior?
CRV gas used to be 2 5 litre engines. Now it's 1.5 , we don't know if it's reliable
Toyota needs to narrow the gap space between the wheel arch and the tires on the RAV4.
Another great comparison.. you rock! I am buying either one this month. Thank you.
2023 RAV4 Hybrid or 2023 CRV would be better choice for a new car now in Canada? I want to buy a CRV with hybrid but I don’t have choice in lower trims. Ofcouurse i cannot afford Touring one. Pls advise ?
Go for rav4 LE hybrid
Another difference; the CR-V does not have a spare tire, but the RAV4 does
This is huge. 30 years old and used a spare several times already. #neccessary
Good point. I’m not even sure if there is a place to put a space saver spare in the CRV if you decided to buy one separately.
@@JJ-cg3rn I had a loaner 2023 CRV Hybrid and there isn't a dedicated space for it. It would just go in the back and take up space. Also, someone would need to buy a jack and lugnut wrench since those are missing too.
That’s nuts, I would not call that a good design at all
There's no room for a spare tire in the CR-V due to the location of the hybrid battery.
Honda CRV looks better and no 2 years Waite time like Toyota so CRV is best choice 👍👍
lol check the price
Regardless of Honda's outrageous price, when it comes to Hybrid technology no one is even close to Toyota. Hence the two year wait times while the other vehicle is pretty much available right away.
@@gluetoblue23 If you live there in Minnesota like me, the Toyota hybrid isn’t a great option because of the cable corrosion issues they have had. Toyota have been very slow to address the issue!
2 year wait? Not in the south.
No 2 year wait in the Boston area either. Took me about 4 months to get my limited with I custom built.
Where are the cars made?
One question I have is how reliable the third engine in the RAV4 is. Toyota means reliability but you should never assume.
I pick Rav. Honda lost my business years ago when the motor on drivers side window died and they wouldn’t replace motor without a $100 charge for putting scope on car. Totally irrelevant to window motor. Ended up taking it to another garage.
Having sold Honda's for years, this pricing in Canada, in particular is bizarre. Hope that doesn't carry over to all Canadian Honda models. 🤔
Markups on rav4 hybrids are 1500-2500 dollars in my area.
I'd go with the RAV4. Honda lost me when they partnered with GM (government motors and China).
Toyota has partnered with GM with several vehicles. Guess they lost you too. Might be hard to find a car company that hasn't partnered with them at one time or another
@@shiftmotorsports9803
Did I hit a nerve? That was before the bailout and China cash. When GM was still a respectable company in MY eyes.
@S-Man Do you live in America? Because our whole country has been bailed out by China
RAV4 is a lot louder?! Very noticeable
At least in the US the CRV is cheaper than the RAV4. Seems weird he says it is the opposite.
Excellent review. Exactly the type of review auto consumers want to see. ✅
SUV. ✅
Hybrid ✅
🇯🇵 ✅
Expert score - RAV4 8/10 👍
Expert score - CRV 9/10 🥇
It would have been nice to see a 3rd option, the incredible Lexus 350h as it’s the same price as the CRV!! 😮
Please add the best “value for the money” configuration for each manufacturer. I’m guessing the XSE for the RAV4.
Also, the average car payment is now over $700 per month. If you invest that amount from age 30-70 you will have over $6 million in the bank for retirement. (Just saying).
RAV4 is my Car! Looks more professional, but Honda you can almost compare. Both cars stays on top !
My choice is the CRV, lot even close.
I’ll take a cx-5
CRV all day thanks
My dislikes on the CRV:
1. Hideous taillights
2. No fog lights
3. Blind side indicators only comes in the higher end models
RAV4 opposite of everything a CRV doesn't have
Great review as always. the Honda CR-V looks much better SUV inside and out. Toyota RAV4 is outdated and cheaper. however when it's coming to Hybrid system and reliable I would definitely go with Toyota. I believe the next generation of Toyota RAV 4 will put the Honda CR-V way far back.
My local Honda dealership told me that Honda is doing away with Blindspot monitoring except on the higher level, trim sport touring hybrid. They are not going to be putting it in the lower sport hybrid due to a shortage from the chip maker.
Honda has decided to released a cheep model of CRV in US vs Europe. They offer much nicer CRV-Hybrid plugin with full digital display, 360 cameras, HUD, and Panormaic roof, as well much nicer trim with out weird cheep unpainted bottom plastic. Contact Honda USA and complain about cheep version of CRV USA!
CRV more upscale interior? Looks more plastic, busy and Kia like. When all the vehicles are following Tesla in simple interiors....
it says there is a lx model
He keeps forgetting to mention that Crv comes with front wheel drive that make almost same mpg like RAV4 which only have all wheel
My choice would be the one comes with a plug like the RAV 4 Prime or the up coming Equinox EV or the BZ4X Toyota SUV.
Crv has 19in wheels to
Buying a crv today because the rav4 has a 5-7k markup 😭
How do you like your CR-V
@@AliMohamed-tr1ii if it wasn't for the fact that Toyota dealers are selling the RAV4 5-7k over msrp i would have gotten that vehicle. But don't get me wrong the crv is not a bad car but i think is overpriced.
@@iSucrose thank you. I like both cars but I’m leaning towards the RAV4. The interior of the CR-v is way nicer though
I canceled my crv hybrid sports touring because it doesn't have a spare tire and fog lights. These are very important features for me.
Would like to see a comparison between Ford Mustang Ecoboost and the 5.0 GT
In ECO my CRV Hybrid gets 45 MPG CITY
Model Y
The fact that Toyota RAV4 is cheaper is because Toyota sells more than the CR-V.
It does not matter I can't afford either..
Like many die-hard Honda fans...I grind my teeth in disappointment @ the Hybrid pricing and less features.
Maybe the well-to-do Gen X'ers and Baby Boomers who have owned multi-generations of Hondas don't care.
For the value, i will pick Rav 4 LE hybrid over $50k crv hybrid
The rev cost more try buying one
With Toyota dealerships putting mark ups on their cars it’s ridiculous I’m not sure if Honda does it too but my best guess they do as well
an we discuss the OIL DILUTION and the litigation, recalls and extended warranties in new Honda's ???
Gasoline in oil, engine damage, families getting sick
Honda conceals the problem ?????...
If you can find a rav 4
CRV hybrid 2023 doesn’t have spare tire at all 🙉
I'd get the Kia Sportage over the Honda CRV. Better value, better design, better fuel economy.
Good luck in finding one within 3 months!
less reliability
@Maria Hockett Agreed but I'm okay with the trade-off. I lease I don't buy.😉
Crv 4 me
dig deep.
Not wise 😔
Which one should you buy? ❎
Which one you can get in 3 month✅
Seems that if we really cared about the environment, hybrid would be less expensive.😊
First comment 🇮🇳
Lol rav4 availability is not... Like at all... Zero
I like Rav 4 than ugly CRV.
Honda makes bad hybrids, Toyota is the best
Neither, you should buy a reliable used car with cash or get a very low payment cause buying a new car is a bad financial decision.
Differs from market. In some market like Middle East, Australia, due to low supply of semi conductor chips, used vehicles which are 3-4 years old are almost same price as new ones.
So don’t just go on what people keep saying on RUclips.
Used cars under 15k are still overpriced
@@NikhLogic it’s still like that outside the U.S.? Used prices are starting to come down here.
Also, there are plenty of 6-7 and even 8-10 year old cars out there that are in good condition or require minor repairs and they’ll go for another 100k miles or so. I bought a 2013 Camry for $10k USD with 128k miles. All it needs is the transmission sensor replaced which is like a $160 fix.
But I am from the U.S. so I cannot speak for other countries. Even still, if someone needs a car due to lack of public transportation in their area, and they don’t make a lot of money (like myself), they should consider looking into something older instead of 3-4 years old.
@@TelosBudo you’re not wrong. But they’re starting to come down. I looked a bit harder and found a decent deal.
I’d say right now buying new is a steal… I traded in n a 5-year old SUV, got $10K more for it than I expected it got the top trim on a new one for pretty cheap. Only waited 5 months.
Buying anything electric can be a long wait time though
2023 Nissan Rogue is the one to buy.
honda 1.5 turbo motor is junk, due to gas leaking into the oil. Worst motor out there
CRV > RAV4
Accord > Camry
Civic > Corolla
Truth
