My neighbor purchased a 2023 Honda CRV hybrid for 46K. I purchased the 2023 Lexus NX350H for 50K in America. Both cars have excellent build quality and handling. The Honda is a slightly larger vehicle. The reason I went with Lexus is they offered a 14-inch infotainment screen and a Heads-Up display. The Honda came with a 9 inch screen. The American version lists the Lexus at 240 HP. Around town I get 41 MPG and sometimes higher. The Honda was about a mile per gallon less, but as I said, it is larger. Overall, both are nice cars, but for the small price difference, the Lexus gives you a more upscale vehicle.
CRV hybrid for 46k!!!?? That's too much.
You based your buying decision on the size of the screen? That right there says it all.
@@vontrap6942what does it say exactly? The three vehicles are very similar in terms of performance and reliability so obviously it’s gonna come down to little things like this.
@@Gopinathk17😂
in some countries, NX lexus is at least 100k more than CRV. NX is comparable to x3 and GLC. about same price. i don’t understand why your CRV is so expensive and NX is so cheap
Funny this video came out today! Just yesterday, I test drove these exact same three vehicles. I drove The RAV first and thought it was nice but wasn’t super impressed. Then I drove the Lexus and loved it, but felt like it was so fancy and maybe too much car for me, the last car was the CRV. I fell in Love with this one which I wasn’t expecting at all. It just feels sturdy and so quiet. I loved the way it drove, so easy. Honda is selling at MSRP and is throwing in the add ons at no charge and also giving me the roof racks for free. The Lexus would have been 10k more and the RAV 4 XSE was more expensive than the CRV sport L. I’m going today to pick it up.
Ya take the L
How much are you getting it for?
I tried to get an NX350H for over a year. Fortunately I also ordered a Rav 4 Hybrid Ltd at the same time. The Toyota arrived 1st.
It's the exact same ICE engine , you don't have to put premium in the NX350H, the only difference is the NX350H has a larger electric motor giving it more HP, don't waste your money if you have an NX350H, put 87 in it.
Great review as usual ....Thanks 👍
CRV gets my vote.
very good info, great work
Way to go! Yes! I'm happy to see you're now mentioning which comes with spear tire. You're the man!
I chose the '24 Lexus NX 350h. Bought it just over a week ago. I've seen as high as 45 mpg around town and got just under 40 mpg on a 200 mile trip.
Great comparison video 🚗🚙🚖. Thanks!
Good job 👍🏻 👍🏻 as always.
I will go with RAV4 Hybrid 😊❤✅.
Here in Dubai, I am watching this video with a 2006 model corolla in hand which has crossed 7,57,000 kms. What ever anyone says about any car. I would go for toyota vehicle any day.
Congratulations...you recommended all 3!
Have the NX 350h but MAY have considered the CR-V Hybrid IF it was available when I got it. Having said that I have no complaints - it has been a great vehicle so far.
I have 2024 crv exl. Love it ❤
I just purchased CRV for exactly the same reasons you explained. You are very honest and objective.
Thank you!
Thanks for throwing in the Lexus. Something ni one else is doing and is worth considering
I have two RAV4s , love them! Both none hybrid
Another option that should be mentioned is the Toyota Venza. You get the same engine/hybrid set up as the RAV4 Hybrid but in a nicer package (exterior and interior) but not at as high a price as the Lexus NX 350H. You lose a bit of storage space from the RAV4 but the Venza feels airier inside. I would have liked to check out the CRV Hybrid but it wasn't around when we got our Venza. But seeing what some reviewers/people have been getting mileage wise in the CRV, I'm happy we went with the Venza. After 2 years of ownership, we are averaging 41.1 mpg (5.72 L/100 km). Way better than we anticipated.
Very concise and fair video. Thanks for making it from those of us who are actively shopping hybrids.
Glad it was helpful!
Love watching your videos. Can you make Video for RAV4 Prime vs Outlander PHEV (or any other PHEV Hyundai/Kia/Ford) including mileage as when you have 0% battery & best value for money trim for both& in the end verdict. Thanks!!!! also are PHEV actually worth the cost in terms of mileage? or just hybrid is enough
Thank you! I was actually already planning this video so stay tuned.
I would definitely buy the Lexus 350h!🤗 Thanks for ‘confirming’ my choice!
I’m holding off on buying a Hybrid due to premium prices and no inventory, once manufacturers start producing more Hybrid’s in quantity prices will stabilize!
Great review. I’m still leaning toward the RAV4 prime phev. The only issue is availability. Keep up the good
Hope the prices are coming down. Looked for one a couple months ago and the dealer wouldn't budge from $48k for an SE trim with an MSRP of $44k.
I have one and I love it, it’s almost perfect.
Same. Was quoted2 year wait time for the particular trim I want
Lexus X 350h I found it was a little bit too cramped inside when I test drove it.
@@lorrainescandia6267 The RX350 has an inch more leg room in the rear seat area.
I love your videos because they always answer questions that I had in my mind.Next kindly compare Mazda CX with 2.5l turbo engine with lexus NX 350 F sport with 2.4l turbo engine
Great to hear! I'll see what I can do
@@carhelpcorner thank you
I love the Rav 4 Hybrid looks I still think it’s better than the other two
Thanks!
Thank you very much!
I drove the Honda CRV and I love that one..
For me the winner is the Rav4 XSE with technology package. For parking the 360 parking is an excellent parking resource. Makes it easy to park in tight spaces and see around you when people unexpectedly walk in back of the car. The digital navigation is key for night driving. The digital display makes it easier for older drivers to see what is behind them at night. Also it has a heads up display. I like the ambient lighting features that the Honda does not have. Larger screen size is important for navigation, especially in busy cities like LA. The large screens are the way of the future for this reason. The larger screens allow one to have the 360 and parking path visible at once (this is key for me)With AI technology the screens will be partitioned to provide more useful information than we have today. Larger screens are easier to read for older drivers and are more 508 accessibility compliant.
I really like that the CRV does not have a transmission. I drive a 2024 Honda Accord EX-L Hybrid. I get 60 mpg to a full tank of gas when I baby it. I would buy a CRV if I wanted a crossover.
2023 Rav4 hybird limited 989 miles $39500 just bought in Indiana @ Criags Toyota 🤩
If you can a venza even though it is the last model year for it ,you will be good
If you don't care about less overall space no spare tire and less features then, the entry level NX could be considered.
Can you fut a bike in the cargo area of the Lexus?
Looking at the CR-V and NX. Also, considering the UX and even though it is a subcompact, I wonder how it would compare in this review. Any thoughts?
The UX is an excellent vehicle but very small. It's really more of a hatchback, but if you don't need the space, it's a great choice.
I own RAV4 Limited. My son has the CT which was the UX predecessor. The UX and CT are not really SUVs. They are more like wagons than SUVs. With only a slight improvement in mileage (3 MPG) over RAV or NX, it has less features, has MUCH less room, is much slower and has no off road capability whatsoever. (Front wheel drive only and over 25% less ground clearance). The UX is the Lexus entry vehicle and should be considered only if your budget won't support the NX.
After this specific video, and minding that I used to own a 2016 rav4 and 2013 Lexus RX 350 before, ... I'm certainly going to the 2024 Honda CRV this time .
Thank you
CRV over Lexus? No sane person would do so. You must be a Honda salesman...
I am a honda fan as well i would choose honda over lexus. Rather go for bmw over lexus
I purchased a 2024 Honda CRV touring six months ago. I thought I loved it until that air conditioning broke six months in. Dealer kept saying they fixed it but they were not fixing the problem. I ended up trading it in for a 2025 Lexus NX. So far love the Lexus!!
Can I get a Diesel RAV4? I could run BioDiesel as well. This would get much better MPG and not be a complicated Hybrid System and have a Large Battery that would be a Expensive Replacement when the Hybrid Battery goes out.
You will spend $10,000-15,000 more for the NX, with smaller carry space, and utility value. If you need to feed your ego, the NX is the way to go, but if you want the Best Buy, go for the CRV Touring Hybrid. We bought 2, first time we have not bought Lexus. They were available on about 2 weeks wait time.
Best buy for me is likely the RAV4 Prime. Beats all in all around specs. Has way to get $6500 off price as well. Doesn't look like a oversized mini van either like the CRV which is nice. Also has more all around features including plug in the back and quieter and MUCH QUICKER electric motor. 0-60 in 5.7 seconds vs probably 8+ on the slow CRV.
NX isn't for me though as I don't care about a bigger screen and supposed "better" interior when I get plenty with the Prime already.
Honestly, my biggest advice is if you can wait, wait one year. 2025 rav4 is probably a new generation.
bet❤
Nope, no redesign for 2025, it will be in 2026.
Lol current one which has been out for ages has been impossible to get hold of.. a new one prob be 10
Year wait
✅💯
Oh no, 2 years 🤔
I was going crazy deciding between the Audi Q5, Toyota Rav4( I already have a 2015 Rav4) and Lexus NX350. I pick up my lexus NX350 tomorrow. I chose that because I've always wanted a luxury vehicle and I love it because I work so darn hard, and have the long grevity because its gonna be my retirement car.
CRV Hybrid for me. It strikes the perfect balance between driving dynamics, size, and quality/resale value.
No spare tire
RAV4-Hybrid awd xle at invoice for the win 🏆
Looking at a couple different cars under $45,000. Thoughts on Genisus gv70 base model, Audi Q3, bmw x1, and Hyundai Tucson limited hybrid? Thanks for thoughts.
Hyundai has a issues with their hybrid , read many reviews of it just getting 26mpg , the gv70 is electric only or the gas engine so doesn’t really help u , the Audi and bmw if you’re only going to lease it or keep for 3 to 5 years
The Lexus is very pricey in Canada around 84K for premium after taxed and the rav4 had a super long wait list. So I went with model y eventually.
I would choose a Subaru Crosstrek Sport over the options explored here.
We looked at everything and then bought the 2024 Toyota Rav4 LE for $31,677 with all wheel drive in silver paint. Practical, reliable, great resale, roomy, great handling, quick, and 31 mpg. Everything we need and nothing we don't ! Plenty of horsepower and on regular gas. Now my son and daughter both want one of their own ! It's the smart buy. It took us eight months to decide and then...it was a no-brainer !
I think you made a wise choice. That would last you forever.
What happen too Subaru, Hyundai, Kia?
Mark ups, dealer add- ons have stop me from purchasing one.
Sounds like you’re not negotiating very well lol
Next time, if you compare those with rav4, atleast get a Limited .. it’s the best looking multimedia system and gauge cluster.
I got an NX. It is amazing.
The crv is definitely the best
The Rav4 and NX350 h are made in the same plant in Cambridge Ontario. Quality of construction should be the same and pros and cons of Toyota hybrid drive vs Honda hybrid drive will be the same. Price difference is pretty high between the Lexus and the other 2.
Lets hope Toyota sort out the easy to steal in less than 2 minutes problem when they launch the new model. Hopefully the CAN bus will be less exposed and easy to plug into. No more thieves ducking under the near side front wheel arch and gaining access to the car.
Awesome comparison ✅
CRV wins a close one ✅
Rav 4 phev was my choice.
The CRV sport FWD comes with blind spot monitor, sunroof, leather wrapped steering wheel, and touch start button, none of that is included in the Rav4 LE, and it's cheaper than the latter. With FWD, you get better mpg and you don't have to worry about the drive shaft. I'd go for the CRV basic trim when it gets a refresh for more reliability, since the Rav4 will be redesigned soon.
RAV4 LE is very basic and it still has AWD and it starts just $29k. CRV hybrid sport starts 36-37k. If you spend the same money you can get XLE premium which will have everything that you need. RAV4 even gives ventilated seats and a spare tire which CRV doesn't have even on the higher trims.
@@Gopinathk17 Realistically, you're not going to find them at 29K. Rav4 hybrid LE sell for 34K plus add ons and taxes, just check any car site, and you can find CRV sport hybrids for 32K or 33K. Both are still great choices. I'd wait for the redesigned Rav4 to do another comparison.
@@cesargarza1393 where in the world they are selling CRV hybrid for 32k? It starts $36.5k in MA ( the place where I'm living in) plus markups upto $2-5k.
I bought my 2024 RAV4 hybrid XLE (without any packages) for $32.5k on a deal with $2.5k discount as I financed through Toyota finance. Actual sticker price is $35k.
@@Gopinathk17 In Houston you can find CRVs for 32K if you're patient, they even have a sport L for 26K right now, which is crazy.
@@cesargarza1393what!! sport L hybrid for 26k? Is it 26 or 36?
CRV all day
@12:00 looks like that $90k CRV buyer took this point very seriously 😂
Correction: the hybrid Lexus NX costs about $500 less than the turbo gas version. Made going hybrid a no-brainer for me. I bought a 2024 NX350h and I LOVE it! I've owned Lexuses for 20 years, and this is my favorite so far. It's a true pleasure to drive, nice ride, plush. The 14" screen is awesdome, as is the heads-up display.
Not sure about the Lexus, but the CRV hybrids are only rated to tow 1,000 lbs. The RAV-4 hybrid is 1700 from data I found. Does anyone know how the AWD systems stack up? It is clever to convert FWD RAV-4 (and I presume Lexus) to AWD by putting electric motors for the rear, as opposed to the CRV, which has the mechanical connection to the rear. Is one type of system significantly superior in low traction conditions or deep snow? The lack of a spare in a "SUV" is a little disappointing. Yeah, you get a "tire repair kit" with the CRV, but if you gouge a sidewall, that repair kit won't help. Then you have to ensure you've broken down in an area with cell coverage and roadside assistance, which you might wait hours for. Obviously if you are going to go far off road, you're going to have to think about an after-market spare, and a way to anchor it down so it doesn't fly around in a crash. The 1.5 turbo CRV does have a spare and tows 1500 lb. But for some reason, the NHV mitigation is more robust in the hybrid. Thanks for the video! I'm in beginning stages of research and shopping to replace my '14 Forester XT. Seems like the Lexus is likely to have the smallest cargo space of the 3, and maybe the smallest back seats too. Curious how much. (I'll look up the data.)
j
The jack that came with our 2020 rav4 hybrid, is poorly designed; so having a spare tire was not a plus for us. I compared it to our 2017 Camry hybrid and the jack was more structurally sound than the rav4's
Here in San Diego, Both the Venza Limited and the RAV4 limited are around $45,000, making the Venza the better value. I think it should have been included in your comparison even more so than the NX.
I would have included it but Toyota is ending Venza production in a few months.
I believe 2024 model year is the final one for the Venza!
The likelihood that the current iteration of the RAV4 will also see its final year in 2024, makes the argument even stronger to have included the soon-to-be defunct Venza at the end of 2024 in this comparison. Will the Venza's replacement, the Insignia, be as good a value against the next RAV4 model, or a better value against the NX ? Hope you'll do a video on that. Glad to learn you did at least consider including the Venza in this comparison. Good video and an interesting take on the vehicles you included.
That nx is noisy on highway....why?
I like the color of the Rav 4
Y,a, actually all Colors are good in RAV4.
Lexus hands down
Crv for me.
RFTs is a no-no. Lack of Spare tire is a deal breaker
Lexus Nx
For me I would have chosen the CRV but not having a spare tire or a temperature gauge just ruined the whole thing for me. I’ll take the Rav4. I know it’s a proven and very reliable SUV and it beats the price of the other two.
Hmmm. I've got a temp gauge
Crv would be my choice
Rav-4 all day long 😅
I purchased a CRV hybrid 2024 after test driving the Toyota.
The CRV quality of fit and finish was superior to the Toyota.
The CRV drove and felt like higher end vehicle.
Has Honda solved the problem with oil dilution?
It was never a problem on the hybrid version
The Infotainment System needs to go. The Infotainment System is not a Upgrade. This is a Expensive item to repair if is goes out. The Infotainment System is also a Detraction when Driving.
Hybrids are still in short supply
Your conclusion is dealership marks up, adds on and lack of availability will destroy all RAV4 and NX benefits and advantages 😂
❤ Honda the Power of Dreams ❤
NX..ALL DAY LONG..
When are you gonna talk about manufacturing defects?
You're looking at the wrong brands if you want that. I suggest looking at GM or Dodge if you want defects. These brands are literally some of the most reliable of all car brands in existence.
Venza. CRV if it has the 360 camera.
CRV has 360 camera on higher trim
@@Gopinathk17 The 2024 Touring Hybrid CRV doesn't have 360 camera in canada.
Lexus is $10, 000 more! For the money CRV Hybrid Sport Touring. A little bit of extra money is NOT $10K.
Two problems with CR-V (we considered and test drove it before ending up with the Lexus NX hybrid):
1. Carbon build-up potential (it has direct injection only, unlike Toyota/Lexus hybrid injection.
2. No ventilated seats (and when we tested it only black interior was available). That rules out faux leather interior in California. So cloth only (lower trim, smaller screen), and black seats only too!
I have seen reports of 35mpg for the CRV Hybrid. Not even close to 40mpg that Honda claims.
true .
2 of my friends have ‘em
Tested all 3. Honda passenger seat even highest level has no height adjustment. Plus the NX 350H was much higher quality feeling and substantial. Rav felt like a rental car compared to other two. NX number 1, distant 2nd CRV and Rev last place. At least for my wife and I and hour long tests.
Lexus all the way!!!!
rav4 > crv ask me why
Why?
The CRV is one loud vehicle on the highway.
I like the Honda Hybrid the best except I do not like black wheels and that is all you can get on the Honda CR-V Hybrid offerings... they don't even offer a choice... makes no sense to me.
Asking for a Like and/or Subscribe is like asking for a tip--there’s a presumption that the delivered content is worthy of the requested gratuity. So asking at the beginning of the presentation assumes I will like what I’m about to see. Really? How would I know if I’m going to like it if I haven’t even seen it? Besides, just asking at all is reason-enough to not-like the video or not-want to subscribe to future offerings. If you’re going to beg for approval; at least wait until I have an opportunity to view the content, then decide if it’s worth-while.
🎄👏👍🙏
RAVA 4 is the best❤
Lexus is ONLY premium brand here. End of story.
Meh, for 20k more it ain't all that. I'd rather just get my RAV4 Prime. More premium in all around features, range, space, speed, efficiency, etc. It's the better all around vehicle.
Why the hell is Toyota Rav4 is even in the list? 😂😂😂 look at the interior and you know its over!
Because it's a great reliable cars with some great features inside and higher reliability than even the Honda. I'm going for a RAV 4 Prime that beats all these out in terms of value and has an additional $6500 off you can apply via a loophole.
@@kerrydaniels8460 is rather enjoy the premium scale interiors and pay for gas and upgrade after 5-7 years than drive that industrial basic boring interior of your rav4
Jesus Christ is the only way to heaven ❤Psalm 23:4😊
You never bring up battery replacement cost...which is a component of total cost of ownership! Very disappointing
I've covered this topic in a few hybrid videos now, and I have another coming in January. Stay tuned.
Toyota / Lexus give 15y battery warranty
In the UK
You claimed easily just look that up my guy. Data has shown thus far they last incredibly long and have 10 yr warranty on the Toyota and I don't think any are out under 8 minimum though they last longer than that.
The CRV hybrid drives like my change, loose af. Rav4 looks cooler, is cheaper, and more reliable. EZ W
Tell me you didn't drive without telling me. Drives loose? Hardly. I have Touring 24 CRV hybrid and it drives great. Better and more fun than Toyota. Better looking vehicle too
The rav4 interior is a dump
Yea I was never a Fan. But hopefully the Rav4 redesign looks great
RAV4 is not meant for interior luxury
