2019 Subaru Outback vs. 2019 Honda CR-V

A crossover SUV, THE 2019 Subaru Outback has been redesigned to include the Eyesight safety suite in its standard features. It is also well-loved for its roomy cabin, seating five people comfortably.

The 2019 Honda CR-V, on the other hand, does not include any major changes from its previous model. There is generous passenger space, still, plus it offers a comfortable ride to users.

Design & Style

The 2019 Subaru Outback is sporty to look at, but it never failed to give what modern-day car lovers are looking for. The combination of great handling, plus plenty of cargo room and a spacious cabin, makes drivers so enticed to buy one. Materials have been chosen carefully to fit beyond standards. Those high quality materials make the car well-crafted for its class.

For the 2019 Honda CR-V, you get to enjoy 17-inch alloy wheels. It has a roomy cabin too plus getting in and out of it is a whole lot easier. It offers ample storage space too. You will feel a bit uncomfortable with the rear seat, though as it is cramped up in terms of space.

Technology & Safety

The Outback embraces a lot of cool technologies that are easy-to-use even for first timers. Its accompanying buttons make accessing the infotainment interface more intuitive. It also supports not just Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, but iHeartRadio and Pandora as well. You can easily connect with your favorite entertainment app anytime.  The EyeSight system comes packed with advanced safety features, including pre-collision throttle management, pre-collision braking, lane departure and sway warning, and adaptive cruise control.

The 2019 CR-V is not as impressive as the Outback in terms of technology. While it pushed some effort to include smartphone integration, it is not as responsive as those found in rivals. Voice control does not respond flawlessly as well. It only comes standard with a rearview camera for your safety.

Performance

The 2019 Honda CR-V comes packed with a four-cylinder engine spanning 2.4-liters in size. This allows the car to produce up to 180lb-ft of torque. The 2019 Subaru Outback, on the other hand, has two engine variations. One is a four-cylinder, 2.5-liter engine that can yield up to 175 horsepower. The other is a six-cylinder, 3.6-liter engine that can maximize output to produce 256 horsepower.

The Bottom Line

The 2019 Subaru Outback is given a lot of praises by those who have tried riding it. This is because of the good things that it can offer its would-be owner. It has an excellent design, and is styled perfectly inside. It also has tons of technologies to provide. Additionally, its two engine variants are powerful enough to carry you where you want to go.
