2017 Subaru Outback vs 2017 Honda CR-V Design Comparison

Subaru and Honda have earned their leading reputations with appealing designs, but when it comes to value for your money, the new Outback holds some noticeable advantages. One of the benefits to upgrading with a small SUV is that it offers more room for passenger comfort, and you'll get significantly more passenger space in a new Subaru Outback. Aside from the practical advantage of more passenger room, the new 2017 Subaru Outback also presents itself with a more mature and sophisticated exterior appearance compared to the redesigned 2017 Honda CR-V.

2017 Subaru Outback vs 2017 Honda CR-V Performance Comparison

When it comes to the performance of your next new crossover SUV, there's a lot more to consider than just the power. While the fuel economy, power output, and price tag is very similar between the outstanding new 2017 Subaru Outback and Honda CR-V, you get a lot more in the Subaru. It starts with standard Subaru symmetrical all-wheel drive on every new Outback model. Getting the lesser-known Honda version of all-wheel drive will cost you more, and you still won't have the impressive 8.7 inches of ground clearance that allows the Subaru Outback to overcome obstacles in your path. Despite the larger and more stable wheelbase, the new Subaru Outback also boasts a shorter curb-to-curb turning circle making it easier to maneuver around tight spots like Denver parking lots.

2017 Subaru Outback vs 2017 Honda CR-V Safety Comparison

Small SUV and crossover models are the go-to upgrade for new and growing families, and that means safety is a top priority. Subaru and Honda are known for providing some of the safest vehicles on the road, but there are some important advantages that come with the new Outback. One of the most common injuries from automotive collisions are neck and head pain caused by whiplash. That's why every new 2017 Subaru Outback is equipped with active front seat head restraints that come forward in a collision to prevent your head from whipping back. This reduces, or even eliminates, whiplash injury. This is just one example of how the Subaru Outback reaches out to provide superior safety over the Honda CR-V.
