Finding the right vehicle for your lifestyle can feel like information overload. Compare the top Kia models to their Honda counterparts to guide a smart selection.

Subcompact Crossovers: Kia Seltos vs HR-V

The small Seltos SUV provides more power than the HR-V thanks to its available 195-horsepower turbo-four. The HR-V has a single powertrain that gets 158 hp. Both crossovers offer available all-wheel drive. The Seltos provides up to 34 highway miles per gallon compared to 32 highway mpg for the HR-V.

The Kia provides more cargo space. You’ll have nearly 63 cubic feet in the Seltos with the second row folded, with just over 55 cubic feet in the HR-V. In addition, the Kia has a dual-level cargo floor that gives you even more room for gear. Each SUV comes with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, with a standard 7-inch touchscreen in the HR-V and 8 inches in the Kia. The Seltos also features a distinctive look with an exclusive two-tone roof.

Hybrid SUVs: Kia Niro vs CR-V Hybrid

Kia gives you the more efficient option in the hybrid SUV category. The Niro delivers class-leading fuel economy of up to 53 city miles per gallon, compared to a maximum of 43 city mpg for the hybrid version of the CR-V.

The CR-V has a 7-inch touchscreen with wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, while the Niro has an 8-inch screen that supports wireless smartphone connectivity. The Niro also adds a few extra standard safety features like pedestrian detection, lane trace assistance, and vehicle exit warning. It also has optional ventilated front seats and a digital key system, neither of which are available for the CR-V.

Three-Row SUVs: Kia Sorento vs Pilot

Like the Niro, the Sorento comes out ahead for fuel economy. It gets up to 31 highway miles per gallon compared to 27 for the Pilot. The latter has a standard 7-inch touchscreen while the Sorento features a 12.3-inch infotainment screen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto across the lineup. Only the Kia SUV offers an available 24-inch panoramic display.

Exclusive standard safety features for Kia’s midsize model include parallel exit assist, intersection assist, lane centering assist, driver attention monitoring, safe exit assist, and pedestrian and cyclist detection. The Sorento is also the more capable off-roading vehicle, with up to 8.2 inches of ground clearance compared to 7.3 for the Pilot. The Kia offers exclusive comfort features like ventilated front seats, heated rear outboard seats, and the Digital Key 2.0 app.
