Comparison Review

Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Honda CR-V than in the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. The Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV 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.

If you've got something you need to pull, the Honda CR-V will do just as well as the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV, since they have about the same towing capacity. When it comes to horsepower, the Honda CR-V has a lot less horsepower than the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the Honda CR-V does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV.
