The Captiva factor

Buying an SUV is really a difficult task. My wife suggested me for a Honda CR-V and my son a Pajero. Most of my friends recommended me the Captiva. I need to travel 70-100 kms a day to visit sites; so fuel and all factors matter a lot. I checked the Captiva SUV fuel efficiency and also found on web that Captiva SUV compared to Honda CR-V performs better. Ultimately I went for the Captiva.
