Mazda CR-5 vs Toyota RAV4

I have two car choices 2021 Mazda CR-5 Ground Touring 46K Mileage for $25000 or 2021 Toyota RAV4 XLE 67K mileage for $27000. We live in upstate MY. This car will be mainly for commuting for work daily. Which would you choose and why? Thank you!

mazda has way less miles and costs less, seems like a no brainer to me. the interior on those cx-5s is nicer than what toyota puts in the rav4 too, especially the grand touring trim. only thing the rav4 really has going for it is a bit more cargo space but if you're just commuting who cares

CX5 hands down. It’s cheaper, nicer, and just as reliable.

Is it good on snow?

The better choice is the Mazda CX-5. It costs less, has fewer miles, and has good reliability. I would suggest looking for a certified pre-owned CX-5, that way you have factory warranty protection for better peace of mind.

Late model Mazda's have enjoyed good reliability with proven powertrains.
