One reason to drive an SUV is the ability to transport both people and their belongings. While both the Tucson and the CR-V appear similar in size, one does offer more space for riders and all their stuff.
If you’re cruising around with friends and family or packing up for band practice, interior space is pivotal. Within the Tucson, you'll enjoy a total passenger volume of 108.2 cubic feet , compared to 106 cubic feet in the CR-V. Both the Hyundai Tucson and the Honda CR-V boast seating for five passengers and almost identical headroom and legroom in the front row. The Tucson separates itself with 39.5 inches of headroom in the rear row . Compare that to just 38.2 inches in the CR-V.
You’ll have plenty of room for cargo in either model, but there’s more space in the Tucson. It has a maximum cargo capacity of 80.3 cubic feet , which makes it perfect for budding musicians with many instruments or avid adventurers packing up for a long weekend. The Honda CR-V only musters 76.5 cubic feet of maximum cargo room.
Whether you’re running a quick errand or starting a long commute to work, you’ll want to have access to high-tech infotainment. It’s the surest way to make every drive more fun.
Luckily, the Hyundai Tucson includes a standard 8-inch color touchscreen display and offers an available 10.25-inch screen with built-in Navigation .
Unfortunately, the Honda CR-V only comes standard with a 7-inch screen, maxes out at nine inches, and only offers Navigation on its highest trim.
To ensure you’re able to stay connected while on the road, both models are compatible with the following features:
Thanks to these systems, you can connect your smartphone to your in-car display and access apps, music, and more.
However, the Tucson comes standard with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, while you’ll have to remember to pack a cord in the CR-V unless you choose one of its highest trims. Plus, only the Hyundai includes HD Radio™ as a standard feature to further expand your infotainment options.
Whenever you get behind the wheel and no matter where the road leads, safety is always top of mind. Fortunately, protection is also top priority in the Hyundai Tucson and the Honda CR-V.
Both SUVs come standard with a suite of safety features—Hyundai SmartSense and Honda Sensing®—to help protect you and your passengers.
These bundles include brand-specific versions of the following systems:
These systems assist the driver on the road, helping ensure everyone on board stays as safe as possible.
In addition to these systems, the Hyundai Tucson comes standardly equipped with several other safety features. Standard Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist and Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist keep an eye out for those areas you can’t easily see. A blind spot system with cross traffic monitor is available for the CR-V, but it’s not available on the base trim.
It’s a close call when looking at this Hyundai Tucson vs. Honda CR-V comparison. However, with its spacious interior design, advanced infotainment system, and additional standard safety technologies, the Hyundai Tucson is clearly the better choice for drivers around Kaneohe, Honolulu, and Pearl City, HI.
