022 Hyundai Tucson Limited vs 2021 Honda CR-V Touring

There are many compact SUVs to choose from. In this comparison test, we pitted the all-new 2022 Hyundai Tucson Limited against the 2021 Honda CR-V Touring, each the top trim of its respective range. Our Honda CR-V arrived priced at $36,325, with the Hyundai Tucson carrying a slightly higher sticker of $37,580.

Now in its fifth generation, the Honda CR-V has managed to perfect the compact SUV formula, making it the second-best-selling SUV in America and earning it a loyal following. The Hyundai Tucson also has established a solid fan base, leading to impressive sales from 2017 to 2020.

The hybrid version of Honda’s top-ranked compact SUV offers everything we love about its gas-only sibling plus excellent efficiency. It is Honda’s only hybrid SUV but size-wise, it’s positioned between the smaller HR-V and the midsize Passport and Pilot. This CR-V’s stiffest competition comes in the forms of other compact hybrid SUVs like the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid and Ford Escape Hybrid.

Our choice of vehicles for this SUV comparison test is bound to raise eyebrows. Shouldn’t we compare the new battery-powered 2021 Volkswagen ID4 with another electric car? That’s how our industry has been doing things, but the time is rapidly approaching when Jane and John Consumer will routinely consider electric as an alternative to internal combustion power. It’s time to start treating electric vehicles like mainstream cars, so let’s compare the ID4 with one of the best eco-friendly crossovers on the market, the 2021 Honda CR-V Hybrid.

Consumers with a keen interest in fuel economy have always looked to small and compact vehicles to get their fix, whether that be a car or an SUV. Today, automakers go a step further, fitting hybrid systems to compact SUVs so that a small gasoline engine is augmented by an electric motor (or motors) for even fewer trips to the pump.

As the industry moves inexorably to full electrification, the best small crossover SUVs offer the power and mpg boost of electric motors, including the segment’s top SUV models like the Toyota RAV4, the Honda CR-V, and the Ford Escape. Here at MotorTrend, we’ve driven them all, so we can separate the great from the good SUVs, so read on to see which models are the top compact hybrid SUVs to buy in 2020.

The 2020 Honda CR-V comes to the party with plenty of feathers in its cap. Our contemporaries in the automotive press hold the CR-V in high regard and we agree with them. That’s not to say the CR-V is perfect, but it’s pretty close based on our week-long test drive.

Two rivals compete for hybrid SUV supremacy, and it’s a close fight. Go ahead, splurge. Treat yourself to the best compact SUV in the showroom—just don’t let the hybrid badge surprise you. If that h-word provokes associations of stodgy, slow, compromise-mobiles, consider this: The 2020 Honda CR-V and 2020 Toyota RAV4 offer engine upgrades that deliver more responsiveness and efficiency than almost any SUV under $40,000.

Oh, and you’ll retain the interior space you expect while traveling more than 100 miles longer between fuel stops. When it comes to having your cake and eating it, too, the hybrids of these segment-dominating rivals provide satisfying and guilt-free motoring. At the higher end of the segment, though, which is the best hybrid SUV—the CR-V Touring or the RAV4 XSE?

The irony couldn’t be more real. As I was driving a 2020 Honda CR-V Hybrid from Tucson, Arizona, to Los Angeles, President Trump announced the U.S. was buying barrels of crude oil after its price plummeted nearly 30 percent in one day.

Although the move was made in an effort to boost the economy given the novel coronavirus outbreak and its effect on markets around the world, gas prices have been relatively low in the U.S. for a number of years, and Trump wants them even lower. Oil prices were at their lowest in over a decade, and here I was, driving the first hybrid SUV Honda has offered in the U.S.
