Comparison Review

Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Honda CR-V than in the Volkswagen ID.4. The Volkswagen ID.4 will be a hit with tall drivers and their front seat passengers, since it has greater front head- and legroom than the Honda CR-V.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Clearly, the Honda CR-V is a better financial choice over the Volkswagen ID.4, when considering MSRP.

Dimensions
The Honda CR-V is about the same width as the Volkswagen ID.4. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Honda CR-V, which is slightly longer than the Volkswagen ID.4.

Handling
The Honda CR-V has a larger turning radius than the Volkswagen ID.4, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
In terms of towing capacity, the Volkswagen ID.4 is clearly the choice over the Honda CR-V for pulling heavy loads. When it comes to horsepower, the Honda CR-V has a lot less horsepower than the Volkswagen ID.4.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the Honda CR-V does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Volkswagen ID.4.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Honda CR-V and the Volkswagen ID.4. The Honda CR-V has a roomier cargo area for putting your bags or other items than the Volkswagen ID.4.
