One of the first things that Broomfield drivers will look at when shopping for a new SUV is the sticker price. The entry-level Honda CR-V LX 2WD with CVT has a starting MSRP of $25,150*, while the base-model Subaru Forester with CVT starts with an MSRP of $24,495. Both SUVs offer four unique trim levels, and even though the introductory CR-V LX is slightly higher in price than the corresponding Forester model, the top-of-the-line CR-V Touring model has a starting MSRP of $33,350* compared to the $34,595 MSRP of the range-topping Forester configuration.
When considering the Forester or CR-V, you’ll also want to know which delivers more powerful and efficient performance on Longmont area roads. Although the Forester comes with a larger engine, the new Honda CR-V has stronger overall performance specs while providing better fuel economy. Review the specs for both models below:

The appeal of an SUV is its roomy and versatile cabin space. With either the Forester or CR-V, you’ll have enough room to seat up to 5 passengers. However, the Honda SUV comes with 39.2 cubic feet of available cargo space to store and protect your belongings, while you’ll only have 31.1 cubic feet of cargo room in the Forester. The flexibility of the CR-V interior is largely due to its 60/40 split folding rear seats, which allow you to configure the cabin space to accommodate all of the sports gear or camping equipment you need for your next adventure to Rainbow Lakes.
