How is the Toyota Prius vs. the Honda CR-V?

This may sound like a strange comparison, but the two cars I’m looking to buy are the Prius and the CR-V. While I’m aware that the styles are way different, I’m not sure about much else. Can I get a side-by-side comparison of the Toyota Prius vs the Honda CR-V?

You’re right about comparing these two cars—it’s a little like apples vs. oranges! The
Toyota Prius
and the
Honda CR-V
couldn’t be more different.
While the Prius prides itself on superb fuel economy and great infotainment features, the CR-V is far more utilitarian, providing far more cargo space, albeit at a similar price to the Prius. Moreover, the Prius is a hybrid while the CR-V has only a gas-powered engine. If you want more information, here’s a glance at the Toyota Prius vs. the Honda CR-V:
Toyota Prius
  • Engine: 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine with an electric motor
  • Horsepower and torque: 121 hp and 105 pound-feet of torque
  • Fuel economy: Up to 56 mpg combined (LE trim)
  • Drivetrain: Front-wheel drive with available all-wheel drive
Honda CR-V
  • Engine: 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine
  • Horsepower and torque: 190 hp and 179 pound-feet of torque
  • Fuel economy: 34 mpg highway, 28 mpg city
  • Drivetrain: Front-wheel drive and available all-wheel drive
