2022 Honda HR-V vs 2022 Toyota Corolla Cross
When it comes to buying a compact SUV, there are two on the market that particularly catch the eye: the 2022 Honda HR-V and the 2022 Toyota Corolla Cross. These two cars are exceptional, versatile, and fun to drive. So, which one should you buy? We're here to with a 2022 Honda HR-V review and 2022 Toyota Corolla Cross review that will determine the winning car.
Interior Comparison
These 5-seater cars bring joy to every ride, whether you're commuting to work or taking a road trip. The 2022 Honda HR-V interior is incredibly roomy and flexible. The 2022 HR-V has a standard 60/40 split multi-folding rear that allows for increased cargo capacity from 688 litres up to 1665 litres when the seats are completely folded. That kind of cargo space is breathtaking.
The 2022 Toyota Corolla Cross interior, in comparison, only has a max cargo capacity of 440 litres. That is a significant difference and a major win on Honda's side.
Both the HR-V and Corolla Cross have standard heated front seats and manual adjustment driver's seats, including height adjustment. Everything from that 'new car smell' to the roomy occupant space on the 2022 Honda HR-V interior makes it incredibly attractive and comfortable.
The 2022 Toyota Corolla Cross interior is not unique, since the design is similar to the Toyota Corolla sedan's interior.
Exterior Comparison
Dynamic, daring, and confident. These cars are as attractive on the outside as they are comfortable on the inside. The 2022 Honda HR-V exterior is complemented with a dark chrome front grille, 17-inch aluminum-alloy wheels, and body-coloured door handles and heated side mirrors. While the headlights are halogen, the brake lights and daytime running lights are LED.
The 2022 Toyota Corolla Cross exterior has fully LED lights, but its standard 17-inch wheels are steel rather than aluminum alloy.
Technology Comparison
Technology and connectivity features keep these cars modern and alive. They share some standard features such as the 7-inch touchscreen display, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, and the USB audio ports. They also both have remote entry as standard and available push-button start. That's where their similarities end.
The 2022 Honda HR-V provides Automatic Climate Control as standard, while the 2022 Toyota Corolla Cross has a standard Manual Climate Control. On the other hand, the 2022 Toyota Corolla Cross standard comes with a 6-speaker audio system and has a 9-speaker JBL audio system available, compared to the 4-speaker standard on the 2022 Honda HR-V.
Performance Comparison
On the performance end, these cars are quite matched. The 2022 Honda HR-V has a 1.8-litre 4-cylinder engine with 141 horsepower and 127 lbs-ft of torque. The 2022 Toyota Corolla Cross has a 2.0-litre 4-cylinder engine with 169 horsepower and 150 lbs-ft. Both have a continuously variable transmission (CVT), front-wheel drive (FWD) as standard, and are available in all-wheel drive (AWD).
The fuel economy is perhaps the best feature on both the 2022 Honda HR-V and 2022 Toyota Corolla Cross. The 2022 Honda HR-V has a combined fuel economy of 7.8 L/100 km, with 8.4 L/100 km in the city and 6.9 L/100 km on highways. The 2022 Toyota Corolla Cross has a combined fuel consumption of 7.3 L/100 km, with 7.5 L/100 km in the city and 7.1 L/100 km on highways. That is the kind of fuel economy you can rely on every day.
