Serving Hilton Head, Hardeeville, and Bluffton, SC

Compact sport utility vehicles have rapidly become one of the most popular category of vehicle sold in the United States. They allow you to comfortably transport your family and haul some items without having to spend a lot of money at the gas pump. When it comes to compact sport utility vehicles, the Nissan Rogue and Honda CR-V are two of the more popular choices. While both vehicles may appear extremely similar, the 2016 Nissan Rogue proves to be the better choice after analyzing the feature categories in more detail.

Value

When it comes to engine performance, warranty, gas mileage and safety ratings, the 2016 Nissan Rogues and 2016 Honda CR-V are exactly the same. The fact that both compact sport utility vehicles are so similar in so many key categories make the 2016 Nissan Rogue a much better value. The Nissan Rogue has a manufacturer suggested retail price $23,290 while the Honda CR-V would cost you $23,595 for a base model. If you want a fully loaded model, then you will get the Rogue for $3,005 cheaper than the CR-V. When you are looking at vehicles that are very similar in quality, this savings makes the 2016 Nissan Rogue a much better value when it comes time to buy a new compact sport utility vehicle.

Interior

Most people are interested in buying compact sport utility vehicles because of their ability to haul stuff and a big family. If you want the best possible real storage and seating in your compact sport utility vehicle, then you can't go wrong with the 2016 Nissan Rogue. The Rogue has configurable panels so you can make adaptable storage bins behind the rear seat. You can also remove these storage bins altogether and place a sixth seat in the 2016 Nissan Rogue. The 2016 Honda CR-V only has the traditional flat storage option behind the backseat. There is also no option for a third row seat in the CR-V, so you will never be able to transport six people at the same time.

Comfort

Hauling your whole family does not matter much if everyone is going to be uncomfortable the entire time. While both compact sport utility vehicles are comfortable when at maximum capacity, the 2016 Nissan Rogue proves slightly more room for the driver and passengers. The 2016 Nissan Rogue has 43 inches of front legroom, which is two more inches than provided in the Honda CR-V. The driver and front passenger will also get 3.6 more inches of headroom in the Rogue. This extra room for the driver and front passenger would be meaningless if the back passengers were uncomfortable, but that is not the case. The 2016 Nissan Rogue and Honda CR-V both feature 38 inches of rear legroom and 38.5 inches of rear headroom. The extra room provided in the 2016 Nissan Rogue gives everyone more room to stretch out, and it also easily fits taller individuals.

Now that you know more about the top feature categories of both vehicles, it is time to try them out on the road. After you test drive the 2016 Nissan Rogue at Vaden Nissan of Hilton Head, you will clearly see that it is the better choice over the Honda CR-V.
