TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2014 Honda CR-V isn't exactly sprightly, but it nails efficiency on a few levels and finally brings more features to the family-wagon fight.

The 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander isn’t the distinctive, sportier outlier that the previous version was, but it’s now a better pick for frugal families who want seven seats and lots of features for the money.

TCC Likes

Simple and tasteful, inside and out
Cabin is refined, quiet
Best seat-folding mechanism

Three rows and 25 mpg City
Good cargo versatility
Pleasant ride, quiet cabin

TCC Dislikes

Styling isn't adventurous
A bit plasticky inside
Steering feel lacks proper feedback

Bland, unassuming look
V-6 model doesn’t compute
Bluetooth isn't a standard feature
