We own two Toyota Rav 4 Plug-in Primes. We gas up once every 6 months. Best automobiles we have owned. In hybrid we are getting 38-40 mpg. No turbo is also a plus. 0-60 in 5.8 seconds 40 miles of EV range.

This video just reflects how relevant Consumers report has become placing a honda behind a KIA or Hyundai, they must think people are stupid

Hi Eldon! Their scores are actually really close (overall only with a 2 points gap). In terms of reliability and owner satisfaction, the Honda scored higher than KIA so that is well within expectation. The only reason why KIA ended up higher is because of the road test score, aka how it drives. This is where the KIA scored significantly higher than the Honda, therefore making the difference in the overall score!

LMAO, Honda quality has fallen and the Koreans are killing it on reliability. Times change…….gotta accept that Honda isn’t what it used to be.

RAV4 Prime is much too expensive, when I bought a simple hybrid, which I really like, the dealer price on the prime was $70k, or twice what I paid. It is also a significantly more complex design.

CRV with a 1.5l engine is a joke. I don’t even include Honda in my research. It’s insulting to have that engine in a CRV with that price tag. They can keep them all, will never look at Honda ever again

Consumer Reports has never steered me wrong in over 30 years of their research. When I make my list of must have items in a new car, one item it must make Consumer reports “Recommended list” or it’s immediately eliminated from consideration.

Happy to hear this! That's why we trust them and think there are tons of value in their research as well.

I don’t think that you understand what relevant means. I sell Toyota and Kia and my wife sells Honda. The Sportage is nicer than both the RAV and definitely the CRV.
