In the world of versatile SUVs, Subaru always stands out. Today, we will compare the new Subaru Forester to a worthy competitor, the Honda CR-V. You can judge how these two match up in terms of interior design, technology, and performance. Here's your Cliff's Notes comparison from North End Subaru near Gardner, MA.
The Honda CR-V offers up to 106 cubic feet of passenger room and 39.3 cubic feet of cargo room behind the rear seats. Standard cloth upholstery follows suit with the entry-level Subaru Forester, while higher trim levels offer premium leather-trimmed seats with custom stitching.
With more passenger room than the Honda CR-V, you don't have to be a pro at Tetris to make everyone (and everything) fit. Your Subaru Forester provides up to 110.8 cubic feet of passenger room and 74.4 cubic feet of max cargo room. Cloth upholstery is standard, but you can upgrade comfort and style with leather, Dinamica®-trimmed seats, or StarTex® material.
Every Subaru Forester includes wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™. Going a step above the entry-level model unlocks an 11.6-inch, high-resolution Subaru Multimedia touchscreen. Other upgrades include in-cabin navigation and a wireless charging pad. When it comes to safety and awareness on the road in Leominster, EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology unlocks multiple standard features that keep you and your family safe on the road.
The Honda CR-V also includes standard Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility in its base trim level. A 9-inch infotainment screen is standard throughout all trim levels. Technology, although limited, includes a wireless phone charger, front and rear USB ports, and smart entry with walk-away auto-lock. The Honda Sensing suite of driver's assistance and safety features includes:
All models feature a 2.5-liter DOHC engine with 180 horsepower and an EPA-estimated 33/26 MPG city/highway. All-terrain versatility belongs to the Subaru Forester. The standard Symmetrical all-wheel drive (AWD) delivers unparalleled handling on and off-road throughout Fitchburg. The 8.7 inches of ground clearance helps clear obstacles, while all-terrain tires, a dual-function X-Mode®, and Hill Descent Control give you more confidence to maneuver across uneven terrain.
Each Honda CR-V includes a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine with 190 horsepower and an EPA-estimated 28/33 MPG city/highway. All-wheel drive is available on each trim level. Hill Descent Control and Hill Start Assist are a couple of the features that come with the new Honda CR-V. After that, the off-road features include either a three- or four-drive-mode system.
