The Hyundai Palisade vs. Honda CR-V in Clearwater FL

The All-New Hyundai Palisade Takes on the Honda CR-V

Bay Area drivers from Tampa to St. Petersburg are always looking for an SUV that delivers a winning combination of style, performance, and versatility. For years now, the Honda CR-V has been a popular option, so we thought it would be worthwhile to compare the new Hyundai Palisade against this leading SUV. Read on to see how things turned out.

2020 Hyundai Palisade vs. 2020 Honda CR-V

Interior comfort: The Palisade can accommodate eight people across three rows of seats, while the CR-V is restricted to ferrying five in two rows. Whether you're riding up front or in the rear, you have more head room, leg room, and shoulder room in the Palisade, making it the much better option for carpools or family road trips. That interior space advantage extends to the cargo area, where the Palisade enjoys an advantage of more than 10 cubic feet when it comes to max cargo capacity.
Safety: Both SUVs are well-equipped to make your time on the road that much safer. The Honda CR-V comes with the Honda Sensing® suite of safety and driver-assistance features as standard issue. Those features are nice, but not as comprehensive as the technologies that are included in Hyundai SmartSense. There's a sense of assurance that comes from knowing you have features like Forward Collision Avoidance Assist with Pedestrian Detection, Driver Attention Warning, Lane Following Assist, Safe Exit Assist, and Highway Driving Assist all backing you up and providing an extra set of eyes.
Performance:The 2020 Hyundai Palisade comes equipped with a standard 3.8-liter V6 engine that teams to an 8-speed automatic transmission to manufacture 291 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque. The 2020 CR-V, on the other hand, features a standard 1.5-liter inline-four engine that pairs with a continuously variable transmission to make a comparatively weaker 190 horsepower and 179 pound-feet of torque. Frankly, the Palisade will make your Largo FL commute much easier to manage.
Warranty: Many people believe that a manufacturer's warranty program best expresses their faith in the quality of their product. That indicates that Hyundai has tremendous reason to believe in the Palisade, since they back it up with a warranty program that Honda doesn't even come close to matching for the CR-V. The Palisade comes with a five-year/60,000-mile basic new car limited warranty, 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty, and a five-year/unlimited mileage roadside assistance program. The CR-V gets a three-year/36,000-mile basic new car limited warranty, five-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty, and a three-year/36,000-mile roadside assistance plan.
