2027 Honda CR-V vs 2026 Hyundai Tucson: price, specs and what it costs in Frisco
Base trims, published figures from each brand’s own spec sheets. I show the starting price of both cars and the rows where the CR-V comes out ahead; the Tucson wins rows of its own, and its full sheet is on Hyundai’s site. What I can add that a spec sheet can’t is what the CR-V actually costs on our lot today.
| Honda CR-V LX | Tucson SE | |
|---|---|---|
| Starting MSRP | $31,520 | $29,700 |
| Horsepower | 190 hp | 187 hp |
| Torque | 179 lb-ft | 178 lb-ft |
| Combined MPG | 30 mpg | 28 mpg |
| Cargo behind the rear seats | 39.3 cu ft | 38.7 cu ft |
| Ground clearance | 7.8 in | 7.1 in |
MSRP excludes destination. Figures are each brand’s published base-trim numbers at the time of the last competitor refresh and can change with a model year.

The LX is about $34,546 out the door with Texas tax and fees, or about $734 a month for 60 months at 9.99% APR with nothing down. Every trim is worked out in the 2027 Honda CR-V price guide, and the estimator does it with your down payment and trade.
What I’d do before choosing
Drive both, back to back, on the roads you actually use. Numbers settle the budget; the seat, the sightlines and the way it pulls away from a light settle the rest. If the Tucson turns out to be the better fit for you, I’ll say so. I’d rather you buy the right car.
