These days, it’s getting harder and harder to choose the right car. That’s why it pays to do a car comparison. When you see how a few models match-up, you can make a more informed buying decision. This guide pits the new Honda HR-V against the Toyota C-HR and Subaru Crosstrek in two key areas:
Car Performance Comparison
The Honda HR-V is a pleasure to drive, as it offers smooth handling and peppy performance for a crossover. It also has a fantastic suspension system that ensures a smooth ride. The Toyota C-HR and the Subaru Crosstrek might offer slightly better performance under poor road conditions, but on paved streets, the Honda HR-V is the car to beat.
Cargo Space
If you want your SUV to have loads of cargo space, the Honda HR-V is for you. It offers 24.3 cubic feet behind the back row and 58.8 cubic feet when it’s folded, which are some of the highest totals for its class.
The Honda HR-V also comes with its Magic Seat, which makes it easy to store large items. According to Autotrader: "Its 'Magic Seat' lives up to its name in regards to cargo space and versatility. Nothing in the segment comes close to it."
The cargo space in the Toyota C-HR is lacking, as it only has 19 cubic feet behind its back row and 36.4 cubic feet when it’s down. While the Subaru Crosstrek improves on those numbers – 20.8 and 55.3 cubic feet, respectively – they still pale in comparison to what the Honda HR-V offers.
