SUV Battle: 2024 Honda CR-V vs 2024 Toyota RAV4! 

Who has the better front end, profile, back end, interior styling and features?

Once again, excellent job Jeff ! I hope all your hard work is paying off !

Just the video I was looking for. You answered all of my questions, thank you so much Jeff.

I drove both. I’ll be honest it was between the CRV and rav for me but I went for the rav. Love both Hondas and Toyotas. The CRV had some small things that were better, but the dealer soured me a little bit by trying to sell me a different color than what I wanted because it’d been on the lot for a minute. The rav sits a little higher, has an awesome ride and does fantastic on gas. I’m happy with my choice.

Appreciate all your reviews. Also it's good to see how the pollen shows on the particular color.

Love the looks of the upgraded CR-V and interior room, but I hate turbo's. Turbos just don't last. I would have to choose the RAV4.

Sweet review. I was a bit taken aback by your theatrics but it calmed down in the end and hit the right gags at the right times and nottoo much.. But you had fun reviewing this and that showed in the video. Thank you Awesome review and shows you have a good understanding of the car market and what is questioned by buyers a syou were answering every question i had at the time. Awesdome dude

Very well explained thank you

Outside RAV4, innside CRV :)

I like the Toyota engine much better but for the rest of the car I prefer the Honda CRV. I currently own a CRV but I think the RAV 4 will be my next car.

I love our 2024 blueprint RAV4 XLE premium. Jeff your earlier review sold me.

Hey Jeff, include driving experince as well in your comparisons.

There is one big difference where I live. There are CRV's on dealer lots for sale today. You can order a RAV 4 but you will have to wait weeks for delivery.

I need that extra acceleration at the start from a complete stop that you get with a geared transmission. I don't care about the smooth driving feel of the CVT. Good that Toyota didn't switch to a CVT with the RAV4.

Compare hp to weight, plus wheel base. Thanks

A CVT and a bad engine make the CRV a poor choice.

Thanks for the thorough review. Just what I was looking for :) I was leaning towards the Rav4 but after this, I think I like what the CRV offers. I prefer the styling of the CRV.

Honda 2024 smooth ride i love my new crv better choice you can't go wrong with Honda.

The Honda has problems with fuel duration 1.5 Turbo. Problems with the valves not being cleaned. The rav 4 has dual injectors that solves that problem, however when u measure the paint there's barely 2.7 mills. Don't swirl the paint up to the point where you have To do any paint correction work. Keep a good ceramic coating on the paint and it should be good for about ten years.

Change the oil and follow the service recs and both will last forever

I like the hood lift have not seen that in other cars 😮

I would buy the the crv honda if not for the cvt and turbo engine they just wont last😢

Resale value, reliability?

We test drive a 2025 CRV EXL, and 2024 Rav4 XLE Premium. We bought the Rav4. CRV is larger, and that's the only advantage we found. Its second row seat is not comfortable, and we don't like there are two more shifts after the "D". Plus, it is about 10 horsepower fewer than Rav4.

I have a Rav4,, but like the Honda too.

why can't I find this exact Rav4 online? This is the EXACT one I want!

I would prefer the honda with the Toyota engine

I just bought the RAV4 hybrid XSE. The gas mileage is incredible.

I got the rav4 blue print hybrid premium 2024….. it’s very sexy and amazing technology.

I’m not much for theatrics, but I love your style!! I’m thinking CR-V.

Jeff, I like the generous interior dimensions of the CR-V but the RAV4 wins in every other measure. 🤩🤩 Let's hope the next RAV4 matches its top competitors when it comes to spaciousness. 🤞🤞

Thank you for saying safe travels my friends to the plane above instead of bitchin.

CRV- CVT and 1.5 Turbo Rav-4- 8- speed automatic transmission and non turbo 2.5 Winner- Rav-4

How do they DRIVE !

My older sister, Maureen would like the CRV or Honda Pilot, but I like the RAV4. Have fun in NY Jeff. Review a lot of Toyotas and Lexus!!

I think the Rav looks more sporty and the CRV looks a lil more elegant! I like the Rav but i think elegance is more my style! 😍

Hi y'all, preferring the RAV4. Will the corrosion prone electric cable on RAV4, costing $6000 to replace, not turn one away from buying the RAV4 ?!

Oh and i will probably go the Honda as it looks more honda than last year and back to its roots of less is more in styling but put that into quality of components and design like the late 2000s. So glad Honda is back baby, be mine, baby be mine.. OMG i am turning into you >.< CHeers again you have a subscriber good reviewer no nonsense just a fair review

Fron this 2 examples, this Honda i like more

I got a question boo boo. Which of these cars are better for a healthy donk? I spent 7k on my BBL and I needs to know which of these cars will cradle my yams the best!!! Thank you

CRVs are more expensive in Canada. I love them for their comfort, but their acceleration isn’t good enough for my liking. I was loyal to Honda so many years but because of their small engines I probably will try my luck with RAV4.

He reminds me of that on that old IGN show Free $hit😅

I would like to have a new one of either model. Right now I am driving a ‘16 Rav4 hybrid. I will never get a new one because of the prices. I have driven 3 Rav4s, a ‘97, a ‘10 Limited v6, and this one and have never had a repair except wreck damage. I will say….I am not as sure about the reliability of the new models. Mine all were J cars, made in Japan.

I like both but on the CRV i wonder how long that little 1.5 will last...very small motor.

If you’re looking at a RAV hybrid, we have a 2018 one. Nice vehicle, but the hybrid battery is under the back seat, which results in the folded down rear seats not being flat and flush with the rear cargo space. Anything larger loaded into the RAV will sit at a 20 degree angle, not totally flat like the gas model. A big disappointment, nobody pointed it out, and we didn’t notice until we had it home. And our year doesn’t have a digital speedometer. The ancient needle/dial speedometer just doesn’t meet modern standards.

Jeff good review but not sure where you got the pricing. You mentioned the CRV EXL at a little over 34,000. The EXL is almost 38,000. After taxes, title, and all of the other crap that these dealers try to push on consumers, the CRV is 40,000! Not sure of the Toyota pricing but way to much for a CRV!!

I will pick RAV4 over CRV for the power alone.😂

We love the 24 crv

I’d take the rav engine/trans if it’s naturally aspirated and std transmission but I’ll take the Honda styling and room. The new Toyotas with the futuristic storm trooper edgy styling is not my thing.

If you have back problems and can't bend very well, stay away from the Rav 4 unless your 5'5" and under. They mushed the roof down way too much to where I can't get in it and I'm 5'7. The CR v on the other hand is way better for getting in and out of.

Me too I love Toyota RAV4

Projector headlight are a must ... won't buy a vehicle that doesn't have those

GREAT Comparison except ya'll didn't cover the specifics of the engine and Drivetrain! I owned a 2022 CRV EXL awd until a month ago when I traded it for a 2024 Rav 4 XLE awd. Why? Only because We plan on keeping forever! We still have our '05 Accord and it drives like new and has been flawless! When my silverado lease was running out in '22 we wanted to downsize and buy due to mile usage. We wanted a Tacoma/Ridgeline but none were available. We figured we would try a Rav or CRV. Toyota dealers were bumping sticker and Genthe Honda, now Southgate Honda in michigan was not. Poof the CRV. It was absolutely flawless but since we want to keep forever we got the Rav at a slight discount 2 years later at a different dealer for sure. The reason was the Atkinson cycle engine in the Rav. It Has Direct AND PORT injection! I won't have to worry about carbon buildup and wouldnt have worried if the CRV DIDN"T have a Turbo. Other than that the CRV is a more refined ride and the info system was so much easier to set and run than the Rav. If you're NOT going to keep more than 5 years of 70 k or so, as an owner of both I would have kept the CRV. I sure am glad I have the Rav as long as it lasts like my '05 Accord which we are keeping forever! TY

I'm looking at the Honda CRV

I'd take the CRV with the RAV4 drive train.

bouth are cool!

Honda looks really classy inside and out. Just not sure about CVT

Rav4, more power, better engine-port injection system. No cvt

We went with the CRV EX-L. Looks and drives much better and reminds me of a Volvo SUV where the RAV reminds me of a Kia

I enjoyed watching your video on the Toyota rav4 and the honda CRV I think the Rav4 power train is more reliable than the CRV looking at the history repair on both your respond stay safe.

Crv is the size of a city bus, with tiny 1.5t, is a no for sure..😅

I feel like when it comes to the mid tier trims, the RAV4 styling looks better. The EXL CRV looks so cheap in comparison to rav4 XLE premium. But the higher end CRVs look so much better! Very premium and luxury looking

CVT + Turbo = i think I'll pass

So many people have crvs now days.

Always have same engine from Camry He still has it ???

Hi sir How are you? Are you looking for a professional RU-vid thumbnail designer?

Wouldnt even consider the honda cr-v with a 1.5 liter engine

CRV wins it's super sharp and room is awesome

Dont think i would like the turbo engine they have not been around very long 😮

The CRV looks waaayy better in my opinion. That said, I think the RAV 4 is the more prudent choice.

Crv looks much more refined .

The RAV4 may be a bit square , but the CRV looks like a bread box 📦

RAV4 all day long

Give credit to Chill Rob G. Snap? Come on, mane!

“ITS THICC”

HONDA CRV 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I think I like the CRV

Yea graphics are better in Honda

Honda 👍🏻

Rava looks better 8 speed not cvt

Honda is spacious

❤ Honda the Power of Dreams ❤

Honda interior is premium compared to rugged finishes of Toyota, crv is wider and longer, Toyota interior is to compact like shrinked....but price wise Toyota is affordable.crv has road presence, rav4 needs new design. And rav4 automatic pickup is bit slower compared to crv cvt, pickup is smoother and responsive. And plus we can clearly know the change in gears in rav4 due to automatic.

I would prefer RAV4

CVT kills it for me! Sorry Honda. Great looking CUV but I don't want to replace a transmission after 60,000 miles. I will stick toToyota.

Honda hybrid for me. It's better in EVERY way!

RAV 4♾♾

Toyota make the rav4 cheaper material that why crv all the time run better more stable engine stronger not louder like rav4

“You down with AWV, yeah you know me” lmfao😂

Toyota ❤❤

A cvt transmission and turbo engine makes honda a bad decision for me

Rav 4 like ❤❤

Power train to RAV4, rest to Honda

RAV 4 is for skinny and short people. Honda works for tall and wide people

I have rav4 2023 xle premium better than honda crv i dont like honda expensive maintenance not like toyota cheap and no issues a lot

Rav4 has 50 more HP !!! No comparison.

The crv transmission sucks

If you can't afford toyota just stay with honda that's simple

The RAV4 still looks better. I don't know but somehow, the CRV looks cheap.

what a useless comparison. Just wanted an expert to tell me which was better, period
