Seeing that the Spring Festival in 2022 is getting closer and closer, the workers who have worked hard outside for a year are ready to go home for the New Year, considering the current environment, driving a SUV with a large space, full power and rich configuration to drive home is obviously a very good choice. If the budget is in the early 200,000s, then we recommend the Toyota Highlander and Honda CR-V, and then help everyone choose a satisfactory car through the two-car comparison. In terms of specific models, the 207,800-liter Willanda 2.0L CVT 4WD Deluxe Edition and the 217,800 Honda CR-V 240TURBO CVT 4WD Deluxe Edition were selected.
Appearance contrast: young sports vs rounded and full

The side styling looks more regular, and the windows, wheel eyebrows and D-pillar trim are further blackened to form a contrasting style. The most conspicuous tail shape is the large size tail lamp in the horizontal layout, which is connected by silver chrome in the middle, and the overall sense is stronger.
The cr-V's overall shape is rounded, with black trim on the upper grille surface and a silver trim strip extending to the headlights, and the lower grille is designed in a mesh layout with W-shaped silver chrome trim, which is the familiar Honda family front face. The side body does not use too many lines to modify, and there are slight bulges at the front and back of the wheel eyebrows, which looks more powerful. The tail shape is divided into upper and lower parts by a wide silver trim strip that runs through the brand logo, and the vertical large taillights can play a good warning role for the rear car when lit.

Space comparison: Veranda body size is slightly dominant
In terms of body size, the Veranda is more dominant in length and wheelbase, while the CR-V performs better in height. Overall, both vehicles can meet the needs of most consumers.
Wilanda's seats are made of imitation leather + leather material, which is good in coverage and support, which can effectively alleviate long-distance driving fatigue, support the electric adjustment of the main driver's seat, and facilitate passengers to quickly adjust to a comfortable sitting position.

The 2.0L engine equipped with Veranda has a maximum power of 126kW and a maximum torque of 209Nm, matched with a CVT stepless gearbox that can simulate 10 gears, and the comprehensive fuel consumption is as low as 6.3L, which saves a lot of car maintenance costs for later use. The performance of this powertrain is relatively soft, but daily driving has a certain enthusiasm, especially at the beginning, the CVT still shows excellent smoothness, and occasionally stepping on the accelerator will also bring a certain sense of pushback. Equipped with a timely four-wheel drive system, with good ability to get out of trouble, providing energy-saving, ordinary, sports three driving modes, self-driving travel can experience a good driving pleasure.
CR-V is equipped with a 1.5T engine, the maximum power is 142kW, the maximum torque is 243Nm, matching the CVT stepless gearbox, the power parameters have certain advantages, but the fuel consumption will be slightly higher.
