Shopping for a new SUV means stacking it up against the obvious rivals. At Dobbs Hyundai of Columbus, we've already done that legwork across two of the most cross-shopped Hyundai matchups on the market. Below is the quick take on each matchup, with a link to the full breakdown.

 

Hyundai Tucson Hybrid vs. Honda CR-V Hybrid

The Tucson Hybrid pairs a lower starting price with more power than its closest Honda rival — and it comes better equipped, too.

Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid vs. Kia Sorento Hybrid

The Santa Fe Hybrid and Sorento Hybrid are close on paper, but the Santa Fe Hybrid pulls ahead where it counts: more power, more torque, and nicer materials on upper trims.
