Performance and Efficiency
When it comes to performance, the Mazda CX-80 stands out with its robust engine options. The model comes with a choice between a plug-in hybrid and a diesel MHEV, providing power outputs of 327 HP and 254 HP, respectively. These are complemented by torque figures of 500 Nm and 550 Nm, ensuring that the CX-80 doesn't just look powerful but also feels it on the road.
In contrast, the Honda CR-V offers a more modest power output with a maximum of 184 HP from its full hybrid and plug-in hybrid engines. Torque-like figures, at 335 Nm, are respectable, promoting smooth and reliable performance suitable for everyday driving. The CR-V falls slightly behind in acceleration, with times ranging from 9 to 9.5 seconds to reach 100km/h, whereas the CX-80 can accomplish this in as little as 6.8 seconds.
