Yep i got the HRV. Thanks for confirming my choice..

Great comparison video. Thanks a lot.

I went with the Crosstrek because I already own a Subaru. I bought the first Subaru because the people I know that own a Subaru, love it. I was looking at both of these. Ironically, Subaru’s rates are lower than Toyota, despite Subaru in Canada being financed through Toyota? Also, there are some things that reviewers have mentioned or I’ve seen in the comments that I can’t seem to notice when driving my Crosstrek. The Wilderness is a little bit louder than the other models from what I’ve heard. I’ve never had a problem with a lagging screen. In fact, the first thing I said to the dealer during delivery is “what are people talking about, the screen is fine.” I had a Mazda 3 prior to my ‘24 Crosstrek and got used to the screen pretty quick. You can still manually lower and raise temps with the manual buttons on either side of the screen. I’m very happy with my Crosstrek.

Our take is: If one liked to drive in the Off-Road and know that the Price of Gasolines = High at the Pump is temporarily then CrossTrek will give one better "High Clearance" 8.7" or 9.3" for Wilderness Version. It is 2025 Model coming of all Small Cross-Over, we only need a Good Vehicle that can drive 10 years Free or Low Cost Maintenance = the Subaru is the one. I have own a Subaru Legacy 1992 Model L and since 1992 until 2006 cost me one set of Tires and Oil Changes = which I did them myself. And Toyoda and or Honda can't be compared with a Subaru with Snow and Terrain Driving. (Or Snow -- We worked in the Oil Patch and Subaru Matched the Quality of RAV4 and Better, and ways cheaper... Only that our Subaru 1992 Model was stolen in May 2023 last year, otherwise the Car was everything Original including Brake-pads...

I drove all three when looking for a new vehicle. I ended up with a Corolla Cross hybrid ( i know, the one you tested is not hybrid ). It's not the fanciest of the three, but it's plenty nice for me, and the mileage is way better than the other two.

Last year I bought a Corolla Cross hybrid. It rides very smoothly, easy to turn corners, and it has wireless android auto in all trims. I average 46 mpg, instead of the advertised 42 mpg. Overall it's a great utilitarian SUV. If you want to take long road trips with the family, cargo space may not be enough but other than that, I have no complains. EDIT: Today I computed my REAL mpg, by using the actual miles traveled and gallons at the station, and my mpg is actually 48 mpg, very impressive.

Are the Honda seats hard and flatter, on the HRV? Is Honda still side stickering? One thing to like about our local Subaru deal is no side stickers.

I bought a 2023 Toyota corolla cross hybrid after years of subarus and won't go back. This car should last longer than my subarus with no oil burning, and super gas mileage. (Better than the 42 mpg rated.) The car is good quality, solid, quiet, and the sound system (JBL) in the top model is great.

I live in New Zealand and have a H-RV Hybrid. Pity it didn't get to North America. Absolutely brilliant car averaging 4.3l/100ks or 53m/gal. Sport mode does take that up slightly but the fun factor is worth it. The hybrid system is different to the Toyota in that it is built in to the transmission rather than added on and is virtually indestructible

Don’t know if it’s in the works, but if the H-RV gets a hybrid motor, coupled with your accolades, it would definitely be atop my list. Thank you. Also, I understand why you didn’t include it, but the CX 30 I believe would have bested all of these in most categories, had it more interior space.

I own 2 subarus currently and i came from driving these cars. A 02 Buick century(piece of crap) a 00 land cruiser, 01 mustang gt, 05 expedition, 99 suburban and a 01 Fronteir. All were either my parents, or me and my 3 siblings shared when we started learning. My 2 subarus have been dramatically more reliable. The buick was my official first car that i meticulously followed maintainence schedules for and the thing needed an entire cooling system overhaul because the thermostat died twice, the radiator was failing and all the piping was cracking. Also there was a pretty servere oil leak. And garbage fuel economy. Averaged only 23mpg for a small displacement fwd v6

How do they compare in terms of blind spots? I test drove a Corolla Cross and didn't feel confident changing lanes with an over-the-shoulder glance. Does the Crosstrek have better visibility, or are all of these small SUVs about the same in that regard?

Would love to see your review on Hyundai Santa Fe 2024. Is it worth buying ?

Hrv or corolla cross for me. Since I want save gas, corolla cross hybrid is my choice. Thank for this review!

Subaru Legacy limited edition 2010 owner here, It has 198k miles on it, needs to start doing research for my next car 😊

Absolutely the best reviews!! Saw all three at the car show. Without driving one the Honda HRV was my absolute favorite. The interior is much more classy, upscale and much roomier than all 3. The Toyota has a very cramped and closed in feeling. It also seemed a little cheap inside. The Subaru interior to me was the worst. That huge screen is God awful ugly!! The Honda HRV sport I think is the sweet spot. I have been told that the EXL leather seats are not very comfortable especially on longer trips. It also looks beefier with the 18” wheels. The EXL wheels look like low budget rental car. If Honda would just get rid of the CVT and replace it with a 6 speed auto, it would last 300,000 miles or more!! Time to test drive but good luck finding a Toyota!! Once again great reviews !

From the price details given, I couldn't understand why the Honda HRV is costlier in Canada compared to the US. (Corolla Cross - USD 35,565 and CAD 38,880 for the highest trim and HRV - USD 30,590 and CAD 39,910 for the highest trim). Americans should buy the HRV since it's the cheapest of the three. However, Canadians should buy the Corolla Cross since it's the cheapest of the three. Sadly, no takers for Crosstrek unless you want to use it for towing or offroad.

Interesting choice of music playing on the Forrester don't you think? No Country Western in this car folks! YEHAW!

Corolla Cross M20A engine gravelly and a bit noisy when you're pushing it hard? Well. You have never driven a 2007 rusty Dodge Caravan ( I actually love it) with 300,000 km on it. Compared with my 2023 Toyota Corolla Cross engine it is definitely a 'little more gravelly and noisy! So it is all relative to what you're used to I guess. The Hybrid Cross only comes with the 4-wheel drive train, as a combo of an extra 1,000 lbs of weight to the whole vehicle. Plus the eventual cost of owning a vehicle with 2 motors and BIG BUCK repairs down the road. Mine is the plain old M20A FWD LE naturally aspirated version. Yawn ... Fine with me.

The HR-V is out of the question for me regardless of how refined it is; it's simply too slow, almost dangerously so. Some tests have clocked its 0-60 acceleration time in the 11+ seconds range, and that's with only the driver on board so I can imagine how much slower it would be with a full load of passengers and luggage on a family road trip, for example. My ancient Corolla is much faster than that, and I consider it borderline safe on the highway! Of the remaining two, I'd pick the Corolla Cross, whether gas or hybrid (but the latter is preferred, obviously); the CrossTrek may have good reliability scores but Subaru's engines/transmissions don't have nearly the longevity of Toyota's engines/transmissions and I'm someone who keeps my cars for 15 years on average, so that's important to me. Also, maintenance cost is markedly higher on Subarus (a friend of mine was just hit with a $1600 bill for 'regular maintenance' on his 2019 CrossTrek!), which is a good reason by itself to steer clear from Subarus regardless of any other consideration imo.

If you like black on black on black you're either into driving a funeral hearse or a Toyota Corolla Cross LE No option available sir. Take it & shut up. The good speakers? NO Poor old LE version gets you nothing more than black, and shades of black. And it shows up all dirt/ hair/ potato chips, you name it, you will be vacuuming that sucker every week and within a year it will just look grubby. Spending well over $3,000 as we speak changing out the black seats to leather seats by Katzkin in a much brighter colour scheme to make it seem like a half-normal vehicle. Toyota must be saving a fortune in buying parts in one colour. Black. They cross-use parts from the Crown to the Corolla & everything in between. They are, to say it nicely, CHEAP! Anything but black I would take. Greys. beige, hell even creamy vanilla, but not black. Driving at night if you drop something it is gone till you arrive at your destination, or in the hospital after scrounging around on the floor and looking you look up and find a dump truck in your face! Seriously, it isn't a good thing. No moon roof doesn't help either. The cheapest & the best give you two tone something. The middle LE gives you ... black & the middle finger salute! That is why most people will do a RAV because the top-end EX version Cross will put you in RAV territory anyways, and they are much more available, and in better colour choices overall. Outside and inside. Top-end Cross? Buy a cheap RAV instead. Just sayin'
