The compact crossover SUV is one of the most desirable options out there for a growing family around Hackettstown and Newton, and the 2018 Honda CR-V and 2018 Chevrolet Equinox are two of the most popular options in the segment.

Find out which of these crossovers is better suited to your daily driving needs, and come test drive the CR-V at Sussex Honda in Newton, NJ.
The base engine on the Honda CR-V is a 2.4L four-cylinder that generates 184 hp. Compare that to the 2018 Chevy Equinox, which comes with a base turbocharged 1.5L four-cylinder engine that only generates 170 hp — it’s a difference you’ll notice on the commute or the family road trip.
While both of these vehicles have seating for up to five passengers, the Honda CR-V far outsizes the Chevy Equinox; check the numbers for yourself.
