Wrap is more like substituting bread for tortilla or pita for something like sandwiches. So like deli meats, lettuce, tomatoes, chicken, turkey, eggs, etc. (sometimes it's like having a salad in a wrap). Burrito is more Mexican. It can have taco meat (beef), chicken, or beans, lettuce, tomato, shredded cheese, and sauces. Or at least for your basic burrito that is.

In my experience, a wrap can be rolled up in lettuce, are usually vegetable based, and usually served cold. Burritos are wrapped in flour tortillas, usually contain a meat, though sometimes only beans and rice, and are normally served warm or hot.
Wraps are lighter and daintier than are burritos, which are heavier, bulkier, and often deliciously spicier, and are almost always part of Latin American cuisine.
I think by definition a burrito usually has rice and beans. And its usually Mexican flavors and ingredients
while a wrap can be anything
It's folded differently. Mexican food is just the same thing folded a dozen different ways.

A wrap usually has the ends left open while a burrito has the ends closed. A burrito is almost always some combination of meat, beans and cheese while a wrap can contain any combination of foods.
Wraps are lighter and healthier choice. Burritos are yummy, bigger side, and Mexican cuisine.
There are things I'd put in a wrap that wouldn't put in a burrito. LOL Also, I think there's a difference in the thickness and size of them, plus burritos don't come in all the different flavors or herb/spice ingredients that wraps do.
A wrap is usually made with a tortilla but sometimes pita or flatbread. It's not folded like a burrito, but it's basically a burrito filled with ingredients that no self-respecting Mexican would ever put in a burrito.
Even though burritos are also made with tortillas, these tortillas are larger and thicker than those used for wraps. Traditional burritos use wheat flour tortillas, which are heartier and can hold more substantial fillings without tearing.
I think the only difference is Burritos are bigger than wraps.
Burritos are loaded with fats and salts. Think 20 year old Mexican woman. Fat and shaped lime a lunch box. Skinny white women eat wraps.
Wraps are usually reasonably healthy. Burritos are like something that comes out of your ass in the morning.
The way it’s folded and what they’re filled with. At their core, they’re pretty similar
Wrap is a salad put into a tortilla. Burrito is beans and meat in a tortilla and cooked.
If it tastes like crap, then it's a wrap.
The way the tortilla is folded
A different name for the same thing to me.
The biggest difference is the filling.
You can charge more for a wrap.
