Vehicle Overview
Hughes Honda is your local Honda dealership serving Macon Milledgeville Warner Robins Georgia, and we are pleased to announce that the 2020 Honda CR-V is now available to test-drive, purchase and lease. The Honda CR-V continues to be critically acclaimed and the most popular small crossover among American drivers. If you are in the market for a small crossover, you may also be considering one of the CR-V’s chief competitors, the 2020 Toyota RAV4. The RAV4 was relaunched in 2019, and 2020 brings with it revised standard features, Android smartphone support and a new off-road trim. Let us see how these two models measure up in our 2020 Honda CR-V vs 2020 Toyota RAV4 comparison.
Exterior - 2020 Honda CR-V
The 2020 Honda CR-V and 2020 Toyota RAV4 are four-door crossover SUVs with a rear liftgate that provides access to the cargo area. The base wheel size is 17 inches. The Honda wheels are aluminum standard. The Toyota wheels are steel standard, but alloy is available. The RAV4 wheelbase measures about an inch longer, but the CR-V is a bit longer overall by more than an inch. A manual liftgate is standard in both cases. Honda includes a power liftgate with the EX-L and Touring. Toyota includes a power liftgate with the XLE, TRD Off-Road and Limited.

While both crossovers have two rows and provide seating for five, the CR-V gives you notably more overall passenger volume at 105.9 vs 98.9 cubic feet. This additional space is particularly noticeable in the rear seating where the CR-V affords adult passengers nearly three additional inches. The CR-V also comes out ahead in the cargo department. The core area measures 39.2 cubic feet, and you have access to up to 75.8 with the rear seat folded. The 2020 Toyota RAV4 provides 37.6 and 69.8 cubic feet.

The CR-V is front-wheel drive standard but available with all-wheel drive at all trim levels. The RAV4 available at local Toyota dealerships serving Macon Milledgeville Warner Robins Georgia is available as either front-wheel or all-wheel drive as well, but the Adventure and TRD Off-Road trims are exclusively all-wheel drive. All CR-V models—not counting the Hybrid CR-V, which is new for 2020—feature a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder paired with a continuously variable automatic transmission. This turbo engine makes 190 horsepower and 179 pound-feet of torque. The RAV4 features a 2.5-liter four-cylinder paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. The engine makes 203 hp and 184 lb.-ft.
Trim Levels - Honda CR-V specs near Macon GA
Honda takes a different approach than Toyota by offering a more streamlined trim lineup. The LX is the base trim and configured to be as affordable as possible. The EX is the well-equipped CR-V that is aimed at the average consumer. The EX-L adds luxury amenities, such as leather seating, and the Touring includes just about all of the features that are available for this model. Toyota seeks to distinguish the RAV4 by being perhaps the only automaker in the segment to offer true off-road capabilities. The LE, XLE, XLE Premium and Limited are comparable to the LE, EX, EX-L and Touring, respectively. Toyota also offers the off-road-oriented Adventure and TRD Off-Road, which have no analog in the Honda lineup.
Technology - 2020 Honda CR-V dealer
Technologies is perhaps one of the more intriguing aspects of this 2020 Honda CR-V vs 2020 Toyota RAV4 comparison. Honda has really led the charge in this segment when it comes to embracing the latest technologies, but the Toyota has worked hard to make the RAV4 more competitive. The base Honda equipment includes a 5-inch central infotainment display, an automatic climate control system and the Honda Sensing suite, which includes forward collision and road departure mitigation. The up-level EX adds a 7-inch touchscreen, Android and Apple support and a blind-spot monitor. The base Toyota equipment includes a 7-inch central infotainment display, Android and Apple support and the Toyota Safety Sense suite. Stepping up to the XL get you a blind-spot monitor and climate control.
