Honda CR-V vs. Nissan Rogue Review

Utility
The Honda CR-V and the Nissan Rogue can accommodate the same number of passengers. The Rogue is likely a better choice than the CR-V as far as hauling capacity, especially if you often need to carry a lot of luggage or sizeable pets. Towing is significantly more the CR-V's forte than it is the Nissan's.

Dimensions
The Honda CR-V's tank is approximately the same size as the Nissan Rogue's, though the Nissan Rogue's is somewhat bigger. The Honda CR-V and the Nissan Rogue compete for the same parking spaces.

Convenience
You likely won't have to visit your friendly gas station more often with the CR-V than with the Nissan, because both offer comparable mileage ranges.

Cost
The destination charge is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle from its point of origin to the dealer. It costs almost the same to get the Honda to the dealership as the Nissan Rogue. In terms of gas mileage, the Nissan Rogue is slightly better than the CR-V, but not by much. There really isn't much of a difference in gas mileage here, but if you must know, the Honda is a tad more economical than the Nissan Rogue. Regarding MSRP, the Honda CR-V costs substantially more than the Rogue.

Drivetrain
The Honda CR-V's engine is a little smaller than the Nissan Rogue's, but not terribly so. Torque is roughly equivalent to acceleration, and in this respect, the Nissan Rogue isn't much more powerful than the Honda.

Comfort
While the front cabin in the Honda CR-V offers a bit more head room than the Rogue, there frankly isn't much of a difference. The ampler interior dimensions of the Honda CR-V make it more spacious for your passengers than the Nissan Rogue.

Warranty
The Nissan Rogue and the Honda CR-V have the same basic after-sale protection.
