2024 Subaru Crosstrek VS Toyota Corolla Cross || Which Is The Best Small SUV?

[@BusterKitten]

Our family likes both companies however we are all Subaru owners... and zero complaints, our cars have been trouble free.

[@grayman618]

My 2.0 crosstrek has never labored at highway speeds..it will easily cruise above legal speed limits and still clear 30+ mpgs..

[@bepowerful2160]

Test drove limited Crosstrek. You can control AC via voice control. although 2.5 liter, 178 lb torque, get up and go had that lag when accelerating from stop. Also the local dealer added just under 4,000 fee. They called it a Market Adjustment because of a limited supply. I am not getting either but I like the Crosstrek dash more, it’s built in. I don’t care for the stuck on elevated position of the screens in Toyota vehicles.

[@A_A_J.]

The elevated screen doesn't block the view... from the height of the driver's eye, it's below the top/back of the dash.

[@bepowerful2160]

@@A_A_J. I don’t argue with that in general except the new Prius gauge cluster absolutely does. I’ve been in one and was surprised and disappointed. I should clarify I referring to the stuck on screens that look like an afterthought.

[@abonnie1]

You should find another dealer, I hate it when they jack up their prices, like Toyota, Honda, and Kia are famous for. I ordered my Crosstrek sport at sticker price through the same person who sold my mom her car. Tell them you will not pay a dime more and walk out.

[@A_A_J.]

@@bepowerful2160 I'm sure it does. I sat in the new Prius. It looks sleek and fast, but internal visibility is poor. One sits upright in the Corolla Cross so the angles are better. Sitting low in a car like the Prius would give the result you experienced. The Crosstrek screen, while large and somewhat distracting to my mind, doesn't block the view and sits flush, which is a plus.

[@ericpizarro3084]

I owns a 2021 Crosstrek Sport. My son owns a 2022 RAV4 Hybrid. As much as I love the economy of the RAV4, the Subaru handling, seats comfort and the symmetrical AWD are better. We drove our little car through a heavy rain storm and we felt much safer than any other car that we have ever driven.

[@flippino35]

looking at the crosstrek sport as my first car purchase

[@walltiger6603]

i have the corolla cross with 2.0 gas engine. i use extreme driving style to get 5.0L/100km, which is 47 MPG. i never go over 100km/h, seldom let the engine go over 2500rpm when accelerating and hyper mill when ever possible. so l smile when i see the gas pump, and its a different kind of fun to squeeze for MPG.

[@TheSonicSpectrum]

I have to agree, my 2023 Corolla cross LE front wheel drive gas version can do easily 5.6L/100kms. Drive it nice in the backroads, use adaptive cruise control, and don’t rev over 2200 RPM and it’s easy to get hybrid numbers on the regular Corolla cross. 100% agree with you.

[@r3sp3ctall]

Thanks for the video. I agree on the conclusion. Though the Corolla Cross hybrid price is close to Rav4 hybrid which makes the comparison further difficult given the RAV’s more interior room and stronger engine.

[@harrahphotoman]

I would opt for the Crosstrek with the larger engine in the Sport model. We have a 21 Forester Touring and I am looking for a replacement for my daily commuter (a Jetta sedan).

[@Tonga2]

We bought the Onyx model and just love it. First thing I noticed on the test drive was the Dual pinion steering rack right out of the WRX that is on the Crosstrek, it makes the car feel solid on the highway. The engine power is more then enough and fuel economy is excellent plus the Crosstrek seats are super comfortable and visibility is great. Can’t say enough positive remarks, just love our 2024 Crosstrek Onyx.

[@garethdavies1779]

Excellent comparison review Shari (as always!). For clarification- Did you not recently post a video that confirmed that the Crosstrek's reliability was a little sketchy? Regardless-over three decades- I have almost always preferred the Subaru over the equivalent gas Toyota. But- I have always bought the Toyota because of the overall lower cost of ownership and (at least in Canada) better Toyota financing. And with my personal commitment to reducing Carbon emissions- we have been buying Toyota hybrids for more than a decade now. We have a 2021 RAV hybrid- incredible power and fuel economy. I have a Corolla Cross Hybrid arriving next month (ordered in June)- I am selling/trading in my 2014 Prius C. The Prius C was so cheap to drive that it saved my ass during a period where my family lived on a very tight budget. Toyota's hybrid system is incredible- they must be truly committed to the ecosphere if they are willing to share it with anyone! (Unless we consider Toyota's partial ownership of Subaru...) Thank you again Shari! Excellence.

[@carhelpcorner]

No problem thanks for sharing! I believe in one video I mentioned that the previous generation Crosstrek had an underwhelming crash test score for one of the tests. The new generation has improved that so now there are no real concerns.

[@A_A_J.]

Consumer Reports rates the Crosstrek extremely well for reliability.

[@hypotenuse314]

@garethdavies1779 I enjoyed reading your insight on the two vehicles! Though it’s a bit of a different comparison, my Crosstrek Hybrid (which essentially runs the same system as a Prius) is great for saving on gas and lowering emissions despite what some skeptics say about it having a horrible range. More on topic, I have had the opportunity to drive a Limited 2024 Crosstrek too. I cannot say too much for Toyota. However, I liked how Subaru incorporated many technical upgrades on the Crosstrek with very little change in pricing. While I personally thought the quality of interior materials lowered and I was disappointed by the lack of power-train change, I think the car is very well valued. The Subaru, in classic fashion, also is more capable for challenging conditions than the Carolla Cross by the sounds of it. Word has it that Subaru will return with hybrid versions of the Crosstrek and Forester around 2025 (at least for the U.S) and I think that should help them a lot. I know that when purchasing my Crosstrek Hybrid we were able to get a tax credit upon purchase.

[@rickeles7333]

We have 2024 Crosstrek Wilderness built in Lafayette, Indiana

[@STRIKER520]

The Crosstrek out of the two if you do anything off road. It actually has a thicker steel on the bottom for strength. It's not just a lifted Impreza the body is stronger.

[@kats1978]

100% agree about Crosstrek is not lifted Impreza. “X-mode” is all I have to say why.

[@Michael-ur5qb]

As always the Toyota is efficient and reliable and the crosstrek is sportier and more safety goodies. I heard from other reviewers the Corolla Cross handling is a mess so my pick would be Crosstrek. My only issue is that its so close in price to the Forester its almost worth considering that.

[@filmster1981]

Your comment is more valuable than this entire video review.

[@bonniel4325]

I compared Forester and Crosstrek. Forester has a bit more wind noise, maybe because it''s taller and has taller windows. Regarding power, I easily passed semi-trucks on the highway at 85+mph in my 2.0 L Premium. I honestly think it is a better buy. And the yellow trim and leatherette seats in the Sport are not the greatest. You get that plasticky smell from the fake leather seats. I agree with the review about the disadvantage of touch screen climate controls. You have to take your eyes off the road, which goes against the grain of Subaru's claim to valuing safety. Stay away from Honda HRV. Dealerships are inflating/eye gouging the price by 3-4 K. They will not budge. Subaru will go to MSRP if you really push.

[@A_A_J.]

@@bonniel4325 I believe the Sport has cloth seats... the leatherette comes with the Limited.

[@jerrytom3514]

Nice video but comparing the cross track with the cross hybrid you’re talking about a $6000 comparison at least so it’s not really a comparison … I would like you to just compare both of the ice models. Otherwise great video.

[@chch8993]

I'm a big fan of Subarus and loved my Forester--but wanted a smaller SUV with AWD and a hybrid. No options at this point from Subaru, so I bought a 2024 Corolla Cross hybrid. Yes, it was difficult to find one, but I love it! Down the road I'd return to Subas if they have several hybrid options...

[@lillyleroy4830]

Im in the same situation. Im leaning towards a hybrid, but Subaru discontinued them, so Toyota might be what I choose. The only subaru hybrids are used, and almost the same price as a 2024 model

[@paulandres8979]

I've wanting to see a true comparison between these two vehicles for awhile. Thank you for creating it. My wife and I have been semi looking at the Crosstrek for a bit but that new infotainment system is a deal breaker. Much prefer the previous generation's system. I'm kinda old school as I like buttons vs touchscreen. I was liking the Corolla Cross but wasn't too pleased initially about hearing how underpowered it is until I heard about the introduction of the hybrid. So now we're leaning towards the Corolla Cross hybrid for a our next vehicle.

[@A_A_J.]

It takes a MAJOR effort to get one, or a long wait. If you want one, request it now, and it will be available for you in the next 4-8 months, depending on how specific you are about the configuration. Took me 2 months and about 200 phone calls to dealerships all around (not kidding).

[@fjg2896]

I have the new Crosstrek. The infotainment system is not bad especially when using your phone. There are enough physical controls to please most folks, including me. Anyway, the Corolla Cross is ugly.

[@mmmmmvodka]

As someone who was considering both, good luck with your Cross. DONT GET STUCK AT A RED LIGHT IN THE RAIN! Google if you don't know. Now you know.

[@A_A_J.]

@@mmmmmvodka Thanks for the head's up. I'm hoping that the software will be quite different with a hybrid since the engine start-stop is constant and very different from a gas model stopping when the car is stopped.

[@abonnie1]

@@mmmmmvodka what happens when you get stuck at the light in the rain??

[@kingkiril]

Subaru crosstrek. Visibility is better. Dashboard too high in Corolla cross. Seats more comfortable in Subaru. Smooth and plush ride. Larger info screen. Better awd system. Great value for money and great car for daily driving.

[@abonnie1]

Visibility helped me make my decision, I’ve driven only Toyotas to this day and just ordered my first Subaru Not to mention the comfy seats in the sports trim

[@Flying-Fox19]

I test drove the Cross gas model and what you said was the exact opposite lol.

[@A_A_J.]

@@Flying-Fox19 There's no way the cross has a better AWD than the crosstrek. Not to mention X-mode, which the cross doesn't have. Other issues are subjective.

[@Flying-Fox19]

@@A_A_J. ok not the AWD sorry I didn't see that originally. Let's say both are great cars but I need the rear AC vents more then AWD for bad weather or off roading. Gas savings will be great for the Cross when I have it. Another good thing is when there might be short supply of fuel for certain situations and you can keep going.

[@A_A_J.]

@@Flying-Fox19 Agreed. I chose the Cross Hybrid over the Crosstrek for the same reasons. If I lived in areas with really bad snow/ice, I'd have chosen the Crosstrek. As it currently stands, the Crosstrek is more capable than I need and I'd rather spend money on the hybrid system than the X-mode system.

[@fjg2896]

The extra $3000 for the Corolla Cross Hybrid is a bit much (not to mention the added state sales tax). Even at $3.50 a gallon, I would have to drive it more than 4 years to break even! It might be worth it if you drive a lot, but not otherwise. What's more, Toyota has to get rid of their ugly grills!

[@A_A_J.]

3 year break even is reasonable... unless you keep cars for less time than that. You get your money back and more, the longer you keep the vehicle, so why is it a bit much?

[@t.soares1125]

I'm looking at the 2024 base models (with four-wheel drive) of the Toyota Cross, Subaru Crosstrek, and Honda HRV. Difficult choice. I'm in Canada and only put on about 7,000 km or 4400 miles annually of mostly city driving (rarely going over 40 mi or 60 km per hour) with occasional summer day trips and one longer annual road trip for a family of three, including a teen.We have harsh winters. I've been driving a sedan for years with little problem but a little extra clearance would help on occasion. We live in a fairly flat land of the prairies and aside from our winters, don't have much rugged terrain, nor do we do a lot of camping. I'm looking for the best value proposition out of the three over a 10-year period. Anyone have any advice opinions?

Same here, what did you end up going with? I was thinking Subaru!

[@ClarenceLumsey-ik4vh]

I like both of them but I just got the Subaru crosstek. N I like it🙂

[@tgchism]

Nice comparison video! Both seem like nice cars in the category. My biggest issue with hybrids are higher insurance and the fact that if you keep the vehicle for over 100,000 miles, you can expect a hefty battery replacement cost! up to $6000 depending on which vehicle and model you have. That's straight from Toyota but I'm sure is industry wide. Add that to you initial higher initial cost and you are eating up your gas savings!

[@115swer]

I am wondering why everyone is missing one point in comparison. Subbie is at least $40-$50 cheap to insure as compare to any other Japanese company as per my observation. so at the end of 5 year of ownership you are at least saving $3k to $5k which is huge...

[@andrewelburton1]

As always, great review Shari -- thank you! A comment about Crosstrek availability: a conversation yesterday with a Canadian Subaru dealership revealed that Crosstreks have relatively long waiting periods (6+ months) because they're cheap compared with bigger Subarus (e.g. the Outback); the Outback is available either immediately or with a delay of only some weeks. While I can easily believe that the Corolla Cross hybrid is especially hard to get, I bet that high general inflation (e.g. food prices), expensive financing and rising car prices are making any relatively affordable, high quality car in very high demand.

If you want a(n) (almost) full safety suite from the Crosstrek Sport, it’s only $100 or so more to upgrade to the Crosstrek Limited which comes with additional goodies, (including collision prevention, not just warning, in reverse). Reason being, they package that safety upgrade on the Sport with a moonroof. So the Limited makes more sense if you don’t want a moonroof and do want all the safety options.

[@devinbyrnes8058]

The cargo space in the Corolla Cross is much better than the Crosstrek. I just cross-shopped both of them. My mountain bike (With the front wheel removed) fit easily into the Corolla Cross. The handlebar was well over the centre console in the Crosstrek.

[@TNAN007]

If you visit mountainous areas or snow regions you'll most likely see Subaru, 4WD, and 4x4 vehicles. Subaru dominates those region markets because of its superior snow-handling capability and reliability. Also, Subaru is a bit more expensive than other cars in these heavy snow regions since they're in short supply and more in demand. I own Toyota, Honda, and Mazda and my last 3 cars are Subarus. Subaru will be using the Toyota HYbrid engine next year, so I'm leaning more toward future Subaru models.

Last year I replaced my 12 year old RAV Limited 4WD with a Forester Touring. I would have been happy with the Forester Sport, but I couldn’t get it with Tan or Brown leather interior. I love the heated steering wheel and rear seats. The only reason why I bought the Touring is because of the Saddle Brown leather interior. After 34 years of gloomy, depressing, drab, outdated, coffin like, boring Gray and Black interior colors being shoved down everyone’s throats from all automobile manufacturers as the standard interior colors, we’re sick and tired of it. My wife’s Outback has beautiful Ivory interior and the saddle Brown interior is gorgeous in my Forester. Our 11 Ford Ranger XLT super cab 4WD pickup has gloomy gray and boring black interior, so I had it reupholstered in Red with black trim and stitching to match the custom 2 tone paint, (factory Silver over Red metallic). If our Ranger wasn’t mainly used for work around our property, I would have had it reupholstered with leather and added heated seats.

The best fuel economy that I get from my 182hp 2.5 4cyl Forester Touring is 26mpg on the highway with the cruise set on 75mph. I only bought my Forester because I thought it would get better MPG. Heck our 2011 Ford Ranger XLT super cab 4WD with the 4.0L V6, 5spd automatic transmission and 3.55 gears in the rear gets 23mpg on the highway with the cruise set on 75mph, after I added a K&N cold air intake and a 3” FlowMaster exhaust.

Two years ago my wife was needing to replace her 18 year old Camry because where we built our new house is in a very mountainous area of north central WA state. We get 5-7 feet of snow every winter and live on a private road that we have to plow and maintain ourselves. She would have to park her Camry 4 months a year (because of the snow) and drive my 4WD RAV4. I would then have to drive our 4WD pickup. We looked at a new RAV Limited AWD hybrid, but it was subpar over my 11 RAV Limited 4WD. We looked at the Venza and Loved it but it doesn’t have Tan or Brown interior. Ultimately we chose a Subaru Outback. Even though her Camry was 18 years old (we had full coverage on our insurance) and the Outback was 16 years newer, we still pay $600 LESS per year for full coverage on the Outback. Because the traction is superior in her Outback, we started looking around for a late model Forester Touring for me. In December (2022) I found a 2019 Forester Touring with only 4,700 miles. It’s a Certified Subaru. I’m a maintenance nut, but the previous owner of my Forester is more of a maintenance nut than I am. He had the oil changed 7Xs in 4,700 miles. I had prayed and asked the Lord for either a Bronze, White or Red Touring with Saddle Brown interior. Mine is Bronze with the saddle Brown interior. I now have only 11K miles on it. My wife’s Outback is Cinnamon Brown Pearl with Ivory interior. In 2026, we’ll be selling her Outback and our 11 Ford Ranger XLT super cab 4WD, (currently only 36K miles), so we’ll have enough money to pay cash for a new Toyota Tacoma Limited 4WD hybrid.

I have the CC hybrid AWD LE. The display is horrible when you turn the vehicle on. Eventually it's not, after all the ads, and reprogramming to get it back to where you had it when you turned it off! Obviously it's Chinesium. Mental health issues with Toyota's executive management. Love the mechanics, electrical, software sux. Reflects millennials. The fact of reliability rating makes the CC easy choice.

For me….it’s Subaru

Not liking the toyota bodys style.

Bought a Toyota Corolla Cross on July 20, 2022. I still haven't received it! Maybe, just maybe, I will receive it from August 11 to the 21st 2023. To say I am 'underwhelmed is an underwhelming' statement. It is to be an FWD LE version. Financing has doubled/ price raised in January last, $1,750 CND. Ya, that is where this new car romance has taken me. Toyota Canada? Get your act together or stop advertising this vehicle that you can't deliver on. I tell all my friends that are out shopping to 'not buy a Toyota' based on my luck.

The Toyota looks boring on the outside and inside.

Mazda CX 30!

Subaru is overrated and overhyped. They are not as reliable as their marketing would have you believe. Look around at various sites from mechanics. You’ll see a different picture. Not saying they’re bad, just not nearly as reliable as Toyota, or Honda for that matter.

Stay away from CVTs

subaru serious headgasket issue

[@richardbolitho]

They fixed that a long time ago

[@fjg2896]

Where have you been? Subaru has not had head gasket issue for years now. Do your homework!

[@williambo5989]

if subaru would have just put turbo head gaskets on all their engines that would have been an easy fix but the gasket they have on now is good enough to last until the warranty expires so they probably do this on purpose. just like home appliances now.

[@paulkoller8104]

You are WAY behind the curve on that.

[@DanielField2023]

Seems like they put the Outback engine in the Crosstrek with some modifications.

$50k for a Jap subcompact in this poor Obiden economy??? No thanks.
