I have a 2007 Ford Focus 115k miles. Auto
My friend has a 01 Honda CR-V unsure of mileage.
I was considering trading.
But I use my ford for doordash and Uber and MPG is very important
Is the MPG on the 01 CRV really that bad, online says 19/25. But I have a friend saying it's way higher.
Without looking at the official stats, my guess is that the Focus would have better gas mileage than the CRV. The focus is a sub/compact car, the CRV is a sub/compact SUV. The focus seems to have better aero dynamics. The SUV is more utilitarian. The focus is lower to the ground. The CRV is up higher. The engine technology inside the Focus is slightly newer, hinting at better engine efficiency.
All these clue in, suggesting that the Focus would have the better gas mileage. Obviously, a deeper dive would be necessary to determine the specifics, but this is a good general guideline.
MPG is very important
Just drive it for a couple of days to check the mpg, using the full tank method and find out for yourself..
Vehicles with 4 cylinder engine generally get good gas mileage than 6/8 cylinder ones. The CRV's are decent on gas.
