Purchasing Power Parity

In a comparative review, we included the most popular modifications of these SUVs with gasoline engines 2.0. It’s not so easy to bring the trio under one transmission comb. Mitsubishi Outlander is offered exclusively with a variator, the Mazda CX-5 and Honda CR-V can be purchased with a manual gearbox or a hydro-mechanical “automatic”. Honda SUV implies all-wheel drive - no options, its two rivals also provide, as an alternative, a more affordable front-wheel drive modification.

Mazda CX-5

Of today's trinity, the cheapest ticket to the world of crossovers is offered by the Mazda CX-5 - prices for front-wheel drive variation with a 6-speed "mechanics" start from 949 000 rubles. The basic version of the Mitsubishi Outlander (also 2WD) comes out 20, 000 more expensive, but many will find this an adequate mark-up for the CVT.
Honda CR-V

There are only two equipment options in the Honda CR-V price list, and the initial version of Elegance (if you take this SUV with automatic transmission) will cost a little cheaper than the Mitsubishi Outlander in the Instyle top configuration. But for the "inner world" of the Honda CR-V you don’t have to blush anyway, and his emergency contraception is initially at the highest level: a full set of air bags and window blinds, a lot of electronic guides, including assistance systems when starting up and stabilizing the trailer. Outlander also acquires convincing bodyguard skills (nine pillows and curtains) on the third step of Intense. It should be recognized as quite suitable for connoisseurs of comfort - among other things, there is a dual-zone climate control, rain and light sensors, cruise control.

Mazda marketers made sure to please potential buyers with different income levels: the gap between the extreme configuration levels is 395, 000 rubles, and from version to version the equipment grows evenly. The average option called Active can be considered one of the most successful in the framework of our trio in terms of price - equipment ratio. This crossover also allows you to buy interesting packages of options, including bi-xenon headlights with automatic corrector, electric sunroof, advanced Bose audio system with nine speakers.

- If we discard the front-wheel drive modifications of SUVs, the cheapest will be the Mitsubishi Outlander in the Invite configuration with a good comfortable component, but with spaces in the contra-set. Traits of asceticism slip in the initial version of the Mazda CX-5, but the level of equipment Active looks quite harmoniously. But in general, rivals have approximate parity in the arrangement of cost - a set of options. In terms of emergency equipment, the Honda and Mazda crossovers are especially convincing. The real feast begins closer to the “two hundred million” boundary: expensive furniture, smart electronics, concern for the comfort of the driver and passengers.
