[iceman_ceejay]

Hey guys... I have a 2006 Rav4 4x4... I'm planning to sell it to buy the new CRV... what are your advise... and could you tell me how much would I resell my 2006 Rav4? Thanks!!!

true, exterior design goes to rav4 but the new crv doesnt look so bad at all. in fact its got a good design. well, not everyone may agree but its probably a love it or hate. still, id prefer the crv. cheaper na. still good looking. and ok pa interior. sa rav 4 kasi parang yung labas lang binayaran ko. when you get inside it doesnt feel as luxurious as it looks from the outside. kaya parang di ako kuntento. hehe...ayoko lang ung mga bumper..dunno parang pagong or sumthing...hehe

honda crv has a/c issues, regarding to speed and comfort on driving the best parin ang honda crv... i bet kong speed ang pag-usapan honda crv mas mabilis compare to rav4 and outlander...

Well after 3 years, the verdict is out. CRV outsold the RAV4 by a huge margin. Despite being an ugly duckling, the CRV tops in comfort and practicality.

Correction: The CR-V is cheaper, so it sells better.

1. Our CR-V has no AC issues... and I haven't heard of widespread issues in CR-Vs that haven't been flooded.

2. Comfort... the RAV4 is much better... the CR-V is stiff. This coming from a guy who drives a third-gen on a weekly basis and who's driven a current RAV4.

3. This thread is three years old.

even though for me the CRV is such a boring car, i'll choose it over the RAV4 any day. and yes this thread is 3 years old, a little late on the party i guess.

CR-V parin

Kaso talagang hindi ko mapigilang ma-bwiset sa tagtag.

Hindi pa naman ako nakaka drive ng current Rav-4, pero hindi ako interested

Between the two, I'd take the CRV due to the superior transmission and the VTEC engine. But there, are more choices now, so a Tucson or Santa Fe is now the better choice.

[Starex_Gold]

Kapag Diesel CUV ang usapan, Tucson talaga.

Pero pag gasoline, mas prefer ko ang CR-V 2.4L 4WD.

Yung 2.0Li Theta II na Tucson parang hindi rin compatible sa fuel natin dito. Nagkaka problems like engine shutdown, knocking.. Tapos yung 2.4Li Theta II na Tucson naman sobrang lakas sa gas.

[GTi]

Pareho namang 2.4 ang Theta II ng Tucson/Santa Fe at K24 ng CRV ah. Mas malakas ba talaga sa gas ang Theta II? Considering na similar naman ang power output ng dalawa. Alam ko ang K24 hindi rin tipid... nasa more or less 6km/l ang FC ng 2005 Accord ng relative ko.

[Starex_Gold]

Ewan ko. Kasi yung CR-V K24 ko tipid naman. Usually 7km/L yung FC sa city drive.

Tapos iba ang sipa ng i-VTEC pag na-overtake.. haha.. wala yun sa Theta II.

RAV ako, color white please. Dunno, it`s just so appealing for me.

I like the rav4's exterior design than the CR-V but i prefer the CR-V's interior..
Overall i'd pick the rav4.

d rav4 ako - more elegant, less common ;)

Just for reference, in Car and Driver magazine comparative tests, the RAV4 beats the CRV in both tests,

Some random thoughts...

In terms of interior ergonomics and seating comfort, its the CRV. I'm not a big fan of its foot activated parking brakes.

The RAV4 does not have a comfortable back passenger seats. The passenger sits closer to the floor, almost as if the seats are made for midgets. But the fold flat passenger seats make for much more cargo room than the CRV's tumble only seats. Ridiculous spare tire mounted on the hatch door.
