2018 Kia Sorento Vs. 2018 Honda CR-V

When you want efficiency, power and interior space, crossovers give you the best value and most compelling combination of these difficult-to-balance traits. Rising from the SUV-obsessed 1990s, crossovers allow you to tow, haul and even engage in light off-roading without giving up the handling and fuel efficiency for which sedans and coupes are chosen. They’re a massively-popular class that seems to get away with doing everything well. With this class undergoing unprecedented popularity, drivers have more choices than ever to find a vehicle that best matches their needs. A veteran of the class, the Honda CR-V has grown into one of the most popular options for drivers looking for efficiency, space and capability. Today, we’re matching up the CR-V with the larger Kia Sorento. The Sorento provides extra space and capability without sacrificing much fuel economy. Let’s see how these two unlikely contenders measure up.

Mid-Size Sorento Crossover Advantages Vs. Compact CR-V

A mid-size crossover allows you to do more than a compact crossover. By sacrificing a small amount of fuel efficiency, you’re getting a vehicle that gives you more interior space, better capability and a smoother ride. Additionally, The Sorento proves itself to be nimbler than the smaller CR-V, allowing you to turn in a together radius. It’s almost like you’re getting a vehicle that’s larger on the inside than it is on the outside for the same amount of money. Except it’s not the same amount of money, it’s much less.
