Comparison Review

Comfort
The Honda CR-V offers rear passengers about the same room to stretch out as the Jeep Grand Cherokee L, with comparable head- and legroom. The Jeep Grand Cherokee L will be a hit with tall drivers and their front seat passengers, since it has greater front head- and legroom than the Honda CR-V.

Convenience
With the Jeep Grand Cherokee L, you will definitely be making fewer stops at the gas station than with the Honda CR-V, due to its tank size and fuel economy.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Clearly, the Honda CR-V is a better financial choice over the Jeep Grand Cherokee L, when considering MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the Honda CR-V is much slimmer than the Jeep Grand Cherokee L, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. If you go with the Honda CR-V, you'll have a much easier time finding a large enough space to park than you will with the Jeep Grand Cherokee L.

Handling
The Honda CR-V has a smaller turning radius than the Jeep Grand Cherokee L, allowing you to more easily maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
In terms of towing capacity, the Jeep Grand Cherokee L is clearly the choice over the Honda CR-V for pulling heavy loads. When it comes to horsepower, the Honda CR-V has a lot less horsepower than the Jeep Grand Cherokee L.

Powertrain
The Honda CR-V has much lower torque than the Jeep Grand Cherokee L, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.

Utility
The Honda CR-V has less seating than the Jeep Grand Cherokee L, making the Jeep Grand Cherokee L the better choice, if you need to chauffeur many passengers. The Honda CR-V has less cargo space than the Jeep Grand Cherokee L, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
