Toyota Corolla Cross vs Honda HR-V: Performance
When it comes to choosing your next SUV, you’ll want to be sure it has enough get-up and go to properly tackle your everyday errands as well as your great escapes.
The Toyota Corolla Cross makes a great choice, powered by a 2.0L 4-cylinder engine that provides a capable 169 horsepower and 151 lb-ft of torque. Although the Honda HR-V also sports a 2.0L 4-cylinder engine, it falls behind in terms of power output, delivering just 158 horsepower and 138 lb-ft of torque.
However, when it comes to traversing various roads and conditions, both models have your back with available all-wheel drive configurations for extra traction and control.
Toyota Corolla Cross vs Honda HR-V: Mileage
When planning your next journey, knowing how far you can go before needing to refuel is an important consideration. While both the Corolla Cross and the HR-V are efficient vehicles, one does take a slight edge when it comes to going the distance.
With an impressive EPA-estimated 26 city/32 highway MPG, the Honda HR-V certainly makes a case for itself in the fuel efficiency category. However, the Toyota Corolla Cross once again comes out ahead with up to an EPA-estimated 31 city/33 highway MPG.*
Not only does the Corolla Cross boast improved mileage, but it also manages to go farther with a 12.4-gallon tank. When compared to the HR-V’s 14-gallon tank, the Corolla Cross shows that less really can mean more!
