Exterior Styling

There's nothing wrong with the way the Honda CR-V looks, but it's not very inspiring and it's not going to stand out in a crowded parking lot. The Nissan Rogue isn’t perhaps as daring as some of its current Japanese rivals, but it looks just the way most buyers want their SUV to look. It's attractive, modern and a little rugged. It looks like an SUV, which isn’t something you can say about every model in this segment right now.

Features and Equipment

The base CR-V comes standard with power features, 17-inch alloy wheels and a Bluetooth infotainment system with a 5.0-inch screen. However, the Rogue S gets all that, and also comes with blind-spot monitoring, automatic emergency braking, active lane control, and a larger 7.0-inch infotainment touchscreen system that's Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatible.

In The End

Both the 2019 Nissan Rogue and the 2019 Honda CR-V are outstanding crossovers, and both have their adherents.  But when you examine each model closely and compare their features head-to-head, the 2019 Nissan Rogue emerges as the better of the two. It's the more attractive of the pair, and it also provides better value for money at all trim levels.
