2019 Honda HR-V Touring AWD

Though the CR-V is Honda‘s crossover darling, the subcompact HR-V’s attractive price point and just-right sizing makes it a winner in its own right. And starting with the 2019 model year the HR-V expands its appeal with the addition of new Sport and Touring trims, refreshed styling, new technology and the goal of a more refined driving experience. But, with an MSRP of $29,735, is Honda asking too much for the Touring while delivering too little?

MSRP as-tested: $73,040

2020 Nissan Altima

Looking more like a baby Maxima, Nissan’s bread-and-butter midsize sedan has recaptured its mojo to once again become an alluring choice for those still not enamored with the pivot towards crossover SUVs. Is the Altima a better car than the Accord?  No.  The Camry?  Very close.  Either way, they’re all solid selections and your decision will likely come down to intangibles and what you prioritize in a car.  MSRP of my tester is $38,840. https://testdrivenow.com/2020-nissan-altima/
