With five seats, plenty of cargo space, AWD available, and reliable Honda engineering, it’s no wonder the 2021 Honda CR-V is a favorite among Monroe drivers. But sometimes a lower-priced competitor can be tempting. Here’s how the 2021 Honda CR-V stacks up to the 2021 Kia Sportage - and why the CR-V is the right choice at every turn.
The CR-V Gets Better Gas Mileage Than The Sportage
The 2021 CR-V LX 2WD has a starting MSRP of $25,350, while the 2021 Kia Sportage has a starting MSRP of $24,090. However, with gas prices rising, the CR-V will quickly make up the price difference at the pump. The CR-V gets an estimated 28/34 city/highway MPG, compared to the Sportage’s 23/30 city/highway. For even better fuel efficiency, the CR-V hybrid has a 40-mpg city rating. Meanwhile, the Sportage does not have a hybrid option available.
The CR-V Offers A More Spacious Ride Than The Sportage
Not only is the 2021 CR-V more fuel efficient than the Sportage, but it also offers a more spacious interior. Comparing base models (2021 CR-V LX and 2021 Sportage LX), the CR-V has a larger total interior volume than the Sportage, and it also offers more front and rear headroom. The CR-V offers rear passengers over two extra inches of legroom and over fifteen extra cubic feet of cargo space with the rear seats folded flat. Carry more cargo and keep your passengers more comfortable in the 2021 CR-V.
