With both vehicles having long-established fan bases and being extremely popular, it can be difficult to choose between the two. Here’s a breakdown of what the base model of each vehicle offers:

The i-MID system features a 8-inch screen, Bluetooth, Radio Data System (RDS), SMS text message function, Speed-Sensitive Volume Control (SVC), HondaLink and more.
