The fact that Honda has an underpowered CR-V which has always been underpowered really bothers me. It is hard to tell an LX from an EX and could use some trim enhancements to tell the different models apart. And no V6 offering really does put a damper on those who may want some more power without having to go full size to a Pilot.The Tiguan review is exactly what my impression is of this car. Fast, handles well, but not by any means a competitor, whether it be in price or size or capability. I don't need my small SUV to handle .80 on the skidpad. Also the fact that the tester should have come with 18' standard instead of the 17's given shows me that VW was trying to help up their performance numbers by decreasing the weight and such. Shame.The Rav 4 on the other hand is just huge inside. It almost reminds me of the previous Highlander in comparison. Not to mention you can get a nasty V6 with over 250hp on tap. Plenty of power and space when it's needed. Best of both worlds as you get a decent performer, plenty of cargo, good price, and the optional V6 that is lacking in the CR-V.
