- [Voiceover] The 2022 Toyota RAV4
versus the 2022 Honda CR-V.
Let's learn a bit more about these compact SUVs.
RAV4's standard touchscreen Audio Multimedia
is compatible with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto,
Amazon Alexa, and SiriusXM.
Every RAV4 comes standard with Toyota Safety Sense 2.0,
which includes advanced features like Pre-Collision System
and Road Sign Assist.
All RAV4 Hybrid models have standard Electronic
On-Demand All-Wheel Drive and an EPA-estimated
40 miles per gallon combined rating.
RAV4 is offered across six grades
with two available all-wheel-drive systems
to suit every kind of driver.
What's more, RAV4 is also offered in six hybrid grades,
including the new-for-2022 SE Hybrid,
as well as two RAV4 Prime plug-in hybrid grades,
with Electronic On-Demand All-Wheel Drive standard on all.
CR-V is offered in five gas grades,
with all-wheel drive available on all trims.
Plus, three hybrid grades are also offered,
and like RAV4, they have standard All Wheel Drive.
RAV4's chiseled styling supports Toyota's commitment
to safety, housing standard Multi-LED headlights
and LED taillights, while also offering
available LED projector headlights.
Roof rails are available and uniquely RAV4
is also available in two-tone exterior colors.
Finally, RAV4 can be equipped
with a power tilt slide moonroof
or a panoramic glass roof for an unrivaled view of the sky.
While not standard across the lineup,
LED headlights are available on CR-V,
as are 19-inch alloy wheels and roof rails.
In RAV4, convenience plays just as much of a role
as comfort and safety.
In-dash storage trays put utility within arm's reach,
while a standard 4.2-inch
or available seven-inch Multi-Information Display
puts driver information and key settings front and center.
A spacious cargo area delivers 37.6 cubic feet
of room for essentials, and 69.8 cubic feet
with the rear seats folded down.
RAV4 is a technological powerhouse, too,
with an available Head-Up Display on RAV4 Prime XSE
and an available digital rearview mirror.
A Bird's Eye View Camera is also available,
making parking a simple affair.
Lastly, five USB ports are standard on every RAV4 except LE.
CR-V doesn't have an answer for RAV4's available
digital rearview mirror,
but a 12-way power adjustable driver's seat is available.
And unlike RAV4, CR-V loses cargo volume in its hybrid trim.
RAV4's Audio Multimedia system
includes standard compatibility for Apple CarPlay,
which connects drivers to Apple Music, Maps, Messages,
and other favorite apps from your iPhone.
In addition, Android Auto compatibility
makes it easy to stay connected to Android devices,
while Amazon Alexa connectivity keeps Amazon's voice service
just a question away.
Plus, there's a standard 3-month SiriusXM Platinum Plan
trial subscription that includes
over 165 channels available in-cabin,
and even more on the SXM mobile app,
making it easier than ever to enjoy not just ad-free music,
but also sports, comedy, and more.
In addition, it can be equipped with an available 11-speaker
JBL Premium Audio system, and RAV4 also comes with trials
to Toyota's line of Connected Services,
including a Wi-Fi Connect hotspot for up to five devices.
CR-V starts out with a five-inch color LCD screen
that can be upgraded to match the size
of RAV4's base seven-inch touchscreen.
Similarly, a four-speaker audio system is standard,
and can be upgraded to six or eight speakers.
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration
is standard on EX grades and above,
as is a SiriusXM three-month All Access trial.
But unlike RAV4, there is no Amazon Alexa compatibility,
standard or available.
Safety is a top priority for Toyota,
and that's clear in RAV4.
With standard Toyota Safety Sense 2.0,
it offers advanced features like Pre-Collision System,
Lane Departure Alert, Automatic High Beams,
Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control,
Lane Tracing Assist, and Road Sign Assist.
What's more, Blind Spot Monitor
with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert is standard
on every RAV4 except LE, where it's still available.
Front and Rear Parking Assist
with Automatic Braking is available, too.
With its standard Honda Sensing,
CR-V also has a strong emphasis on safety,
but with no Road Sign Assist,
it can't match RAV4's feature list.
Whether in gas or hybrid form, RAV4 remains a tough act
to follow in both power and fuel economy estimates.
The standard four-cylinder gas engine has 203 horsepower
and an EPA-estimated 30 miles per gallon combined rating.
Some grades can be paired with Dynamic Torque Vectoring
All-Wheel Drive with Rear Driveline Disconnect,
as well as Toyota's advanced Multi-Terrain Select.
Plus, RAV4 can tow 1,500 pounds,
and that number goes up to 3,500 pounds
on Adventure and TRD Off-Road grades.
What's more, RAV4's available hybrid powertrain
produces 219 net combined horsepower,
has an EPA-estimated 40 miles per gallon combined rating,
and can tow 1,750 pounds.
Going even further,
RAV4 Prime offers 302 net combined horsepower,
has an EPA-estimated 94 MPGe combined rating,
and it can tow 2,500 pounds.
CR-V simply can't match any of RAV4's powertrains.
A standard 190-horsepower engine offers
an EPA-estimated 30 miles per gallon combined rating
and can tow 1,500 pounds,
and is available with all-wheel drive.
Meanwhile, CR-V Hybrid comes in at 181 net horsepower
and an EPA-estimated 38 miles per gallon combined rating,
and while all-wheel drive is standard,
it offers no towing capability.
The entire RAV4 range has already racked up
numerous accolades in 2021.
RAV4 and RAV4 Prime won a Kelley Blue Book 2022
Best Buy Award, while RAV4 Hybrid
won the Kelley Blue Book Best Hybrid Vehicle Resale Value
award in 2022.
And U.S. News & World Report named it the 2021
Best Hybrid and Electric Vehicle for the Money,
and a 5-Star Overall Rating
from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Finally, RAV4 Hybrid features a 10-year,
150,000-mile hybrid battery warranty, whichever comes first,
while all models include the ToyotaCare maintenance plan
and roadside assistance.
The 2022 CR-V has an NHTSA five-Star Overall Rating.
CR-V comes with a three-year, 36,000-mile warranty
and three-years, 36,000-miles of roadside assistance,
while its hybrid battery is covered
for eight years or 100,000 miles.
With Toyota's commitment to quality,
durability and reliability, it's clear why RAV4
is such a smart choice among compact SUVs.
