2020 Chevy Equinox vs. Honda CR-V: Which Is the Better Value?

When you look at Chevy Equinox vs. Honda CR-V overall, the Equinox earns a definitive edge over the CR-V thanks to more standard tech features and a lower starting MSRP. On the base Equinox, you get more standard tech – for almost $2,000 less! To gain a touch screen on the CR-V (the base trim’s 5-inch infotainment screen isn’t a touch screen) or smartphone integration, you’ll need to step up to the EX trim or higher – raising the price even more.

The Equinox is solid on the features your family will appreciate most, whether you’re sprinting across Monticello, or making that weekend trek to Havana.
