Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the backseat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Hyundai Tucson than in the Honda HR-V, due to its greater head- and legroom. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between front seat comfort in the Honda HR-V and the Hyundai Tucson.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Honda HR-V as you will with the Hyundai Tucson, as they are both able to travel similar distances on a tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). When looking only at MSRP, the Honda HR-V will have less of an impact on your bank account than the Hyundai Tucson.

Dimensions
The Honda HR-V is a little narrower than the Hyundai Tucson, so you'll have an easier time getting in and out of the car in a tight parking spot. When looking at overall length, the Honda HR-V takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Hyundai Tucson.

Handling
The Honda HR-V has a smaller turning radius than the Hyundai Tucson, allowing you to more easily maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
The Honda HR-V has a little less horsepower than the Hyundai Tucson.

Powertrain
The Honda HR-V has much lower torque than the Hyundai Tucson, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Honda HR-V and the Hyundai Tucson. The Honda HR-V has significantly less cargo capacity than the Hyundai Tucson.
