I drove hybrid compact SUVs from Honda and Mazda. Here's how they compare and which one I'd buy.
Briefly

The Honda CR-V and Mazda CX-50 are both attractive options in the hybrid SUV market, starting around $34,000 and $40,000 respectively. The CX-50 stands out in design, showcasing Mazda's Kodo design language that blends curves with a rugged look. While the CR-V features a sophisticated hybrid system offering 204 horsepower, the CX-50's Toyota-sourced parallel hybrid system delivers a more robust 219 horsepower. Both vehicles are fuel-efficient, but the CR-V is described as pleasant yet unexciting, while the CX-50 provides a spirited driving experience.
The Honda CR-V and Mazda CX-50 are similarly priced hybrids, with notable differences in design, drivetrain, and driving dynamics.
