Owning one
An estimate, for the EX-L AWD trim: fuel on its EPA figure and a dated national price, upkeep on a per-mile average for the kind of car it is.

This HR-V started life as a concept literally called Urban SUV, and Honda sold it as the Vezel everywhere that mattered at home.
The original HR-V's four-wheel-drive system came straight off the CR-V, Honda's Real Time 4WD, shared between an SUV and this odd little three-door coupe-crossover.
Rivals
Same body, same money, other badges — tap any card to flip.
This Tucson isn’t one car worldwide — Hyundai builds it on two different wheelbases so different regions get different amounts of room.
GM tried a CVT in the FWD version of this Equinox generation, then quietly dropped it for 2027, putting every model on the 8-speed automatic instead.
In China, this RAV4 generation doesn't even wear the RAV4 name — GAC Toyota sells it as the Toyota Wildlander instead, with its own front-end styling.
This Crosstrek broke a decades-long pattern: for the first time, Subaru builds the 2.5-liter Sport and Limited trims in the US, in Lafayette, Indiana, instead of shipping them all from Japan.
For 2022 Nissan dropped this Rogue's engine from a 2.5L four-cylinder to a 1.5L three-cylinder — and somehow came out with more power, 201 hp versus 181.
This Sportage generation isn't one car — Kia built two different body lengths and wheelbases for different world markets under the same name.
The SK Forester's hybrid battery doesn't hide under the floor like most hybrids' — Subaru mounted it above the rear axle specifically to improve the car's front/rear weight balance.
Mazda promised a US diesel CX-5 for 2017 — it didn't actually arrive until 2019, and only for a single model year on the top Signature trim.
