See How the 2020 Jeep Cherokee Stacks Up Against the 2020 Honda CR-V

Compact SUVs, or crossovers, are very popular in Jacksonville, FL because they're safe, fuel-efficient, and they have the ground clearance you need to get through all kinds of terrain and weather conditions. Of course, all crossovers aren't the same. If you want one that's fun to take on outdoor adventures, the 2020 Jeep Cherokee is hard to beat. The 2020 Honda CR-V is about the same size as the Cherokee, but it doesn't have quite the same capability. Keep reading to see which compact SUV is best for you.

2020 Jeep Cherokee vs. 2020 Honda CR-V

  • The Cherokee Has Superior Off-Road Skills: The biggest difference between the Honda CR-V and the Jeep Cherokee is off-road proficiency. People in St. Augustine, FL who like to travel on rugged trails, ford streams, or climb steep hillsides will prefer the Cherokee. It's one of the best vehicles in its class for going off the beaten path, with 8.6 inches of ground clearance, an available off-road suspension, and multiple four-wheel drive systems. The Honda CR-V only has 73 inches of standard ground clearance, and its optional all-wheel drive is no match for the Cherokee's four-wheel drive for getting around on rough landscapes or in hazardous weather.
  • The Cherokee Has a Higher Towing Capacity: If you want to pull something behind you, the Cherokee is clearly the better choice. Drivers in Orange Park, FL who enjoy bringing boats or campers along on trips to the lake will want the Cherokee, which can tow up to 4,500 pounds. The Honda CR-V has a maximum towing capacity of 1,500 pounds.
  • The Cherokee Is More Powerful: If you want a compact SUV that can get you around quickly in Palm Coast, FL, the Cherokee is the better option. The Honda CR-V actually has more standard horsepower, but there's only one available engine. The Cherokee gives you a choice of two motors, and its available 270-horsepower V6 engine can get it from 0-60 mph in just 6.6 seconds. The CR-V takes 8.8 seconds to get from 0 to 60 mph with its four-cylinder motor.
  • The Cherokee Has a Longer Fuel Range: The Honda CR-V gets better gas mileage than the Jeep Cherokee, but it won't go as far on a single tank. The Cherokee has a 15.9-gallon fuel tank, while the CR-V's tank only holds 14 gallons.
  • The Cherokee Has More Passenger Space: The Jeep Cherokee offers just a little more front headroom and second row hip room than the Honda CR-V, giving passengers a bit more space to stretch out and get comfortable.
  • The Cherokee Has a Better Infotainment System: If you want to stay connected and entertained on the road, go with the Jeep Cherokee. People in St. Augustine Beach will appreciate the Cherokee's Uconnect interface, which is one of the best on the market. Its easy to navigate, with intuitive menus and well-organized controls. It also comes standard with Apple Carplay and Android Auto compatibility. The Honda CR-V's system isn't quite as user-friendly, and Apple Carplay and Android Auto are optional features with added cost.
