Toyota RAV4 VS Corolla Cross comparison // Which one is right for you?

#ToyotaRAV4
#ToyotaCorollaCross
#CoupleCarComparison
This is a Motormouth couple car comparison of the Toyota RAV4 compact SUV versus set new Toyota Corolla Cross subcompact SUV. Which of this popular crossover utilities is right for your family? Is it worth the extra money to buy the RAV4 over the Corolla Cross? The Toyota Corolla Cross is a sub-compact crossover and the Toyota RAV4 compact but, Toyota has built the Corolla Cross to be a spacious family option at an affordable price point. The wheelbase of the RAV4 and Corolla Cross are very close but, the RAV4 is almost 5” longer and wider by over an inch. The Corolla Cross has an extra 2” of front legroom and the RAV4 almost 6” more rear legroom. Overall cargo capacity is pretty close with the RAV4 only getting an extra 3 cubic feet. The Corolla Cross base AWD model is $4,800 CAD/$4,630 USD less than the RAV4.Both have FWD and AWD options however, the Corolla Cross has less power and a CVT instead of the RAV4’s 8-speed automatic transmission. The Corolla Cross has a 2L 4-cylinder with 169 horsepower and 150 lb-ft of torque. A hybrid option will be available later this year with 194 horsepower. The RAV4 has three powertrain options, a 2.5L 4-cylinder with 203 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque. A hybrid with 219 combined horsepower and the Prime, a plug-in option with a combined 302 horsepower. The top trim of the Corolla Cross for $33,990 CAD/$27,875 USD has all the extra features to keep you happy, a power rear door, wireless charger, 8” touchscreen, JBL audio system, a power driver seat, softex upholstery, 7” information display, moonroof, fog lamps, premium LED headlamps and 18” wheels. Features like heated front seats, a heated steering wheel and Apple Carplay and Android Auto are available on the lower trims. The RAV4 XLE Premium trim would be the most comparable trim to the top Corolla Cross model, it will cost you $37,690 CAD/$32,735 USD, an extra $3,700 CAD/$4,860 USD. There are some nice changes coming for the RAV4 and Corolla Cross for 2023, both will get Toyota’s multimedia system including wireless Apple Carplay and Android Auto. The RAV4 will get a standard 8” touchscreen, 7” multi-information display and a new 10.5” touchscreen and 12.3” multi-information display will be available on the higher trims. No pricing has been announced for 2023.

Great review folks! I got my '22 Rav4 Hybrid XLE from Thronhill Toyota in April after ordering it in December. I switched from a 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee and can't be happier with a 3 fold fuel saving. My Rav4 is averaging 5.6L combined ! I had a Corolla crossed pre-ordered and was on the fence between the two. I canceled my cross after it landed in the dealership.

[@Syrinx-Priest]

Would love to see more of these cross-category comparisons. It’s hard to decide between a sub-compact and a compact when you don’t have a big family. Oftentimes the sub-compact will do, but you get more available features with the bigger car, so it’s nice to see a comparison that addresses the pros and cons of each. Fingers crossed that when the new Niro is released you do a comparison between that and the new Sportage HEV/PHEV. Both of those look very compelling.

[@jasonettorre7114]

The cross is plenty big, if you don't need much room in the rear seat, or the trunk. A family with a lot of cargo would have to check if that's enough for them.

[@jaredmethuselah5813]

[@kellingtonlink956]

A brilliant comparison. I think the RAV4’s biggest competitor (formally the Honda CRV) is, in fact, now the Corolla Cross. And I predict that the Corolla Cross will outsell the RAV4. I think Toyota has drummed up enough press/attention/social media presence while providing quite the value proposition, especially because they are so reasonably close in size. They’ve got a winner. Thanks for the video.

[@richardharker2775]

Great informative reviews again Zack and Andrea. Engine noise? The hybrid engine utilises an Atkinson Cycle design. It is lower compression by design meaning less power but in its operation the camshaft closes the inlet valve after the piston passes bottom dead centre resulting in a quieter operation. This is why they get phenomenal fuel savings. The Aisin transmission also has a launch gear before the cvt kicks in resulting in better performance and further improving fuel economy and reliability. Win win and win.

I am not sure why hybrid wasn't offered right away since the Lexus UX250 is the same platform with that hybrid powertrain already for a few years.

[@keithallsop]

Nice review. Owner of both a 2022 Rav4 Hybrid and a 2022 Corolla Cross AWD. It's sort of a Corolla and Camry comparison really, what do you need? The Hybrid is nicer to drive for sure, ample power and great efficiency. The Cross is simpler and the proven mechanical AWD which can split 50:50 to send almost 85HP to the rear wheels is likely to be superior to the Rav 4 rear motor AWD system which is only 54HP maximum at the rear. No traction battery and associated motors + electrics on the Cross, but a complex direct shift CVT versus Hybrid's simple planetary gears. The Cross Hybrid will be electric rear drive? Hopefully if so the rear cable is better located and/or protected than the Rav4's. Cross is slower and typically noisier because there is no electric boost on acceleration. Plus, no engine cover or hood insulation on the Cross, but you could buy and add those yourself. Being Toyota, they should both be reliable and long lasting. The higher optioned Cross will cost more than entry level Rav4. Now that's a quandary.

[@jerrylitzza8842]

RAV4 XSE Prime with the Premium package is the best vehicle on the road. Very difficult to get now. I bought mine Nov 2021. Very Happy. I would have liked the height adjustable passenger seat. I will be looking at the concept to retro-fit the new 2023 entertainment system as the 2021-2022 version has some limitations and a few software bugs.

[@CalgaryGuy71]

Great review!

[@ghenry85]

Love the video. I actually cross shopped the Corrola Cross and the Rav4 hybrid. I landed on the Rav 4 because it's fuel economy and more proven platform. I found the Corrola Cross to be pokey even in city driving, but I liked the size, simple but elegent interior and driving experience otherwise from the slow poke engine. I think you have to be hammering the throttle to get 6l/100km. Take your timeline and you will easily beat the epa rating(especially in the city). I think I get around 6l per 100km doing about 110km per hour on a 4 lane with the cruise control on(never did an actual test). I do get 5.5l/100km or better driving 90km/h on country roads and some small town driving. And they only get better in the city. The vehicle does like a calm accelerator, but as I discovered it has lots of power when you ask for it. My engine was noisy when it was brand new, but now with 1300km it has quieted down noticeably. As far the cable goes, someone told me that they improved the cable for 22(no idea if this is true or not), but I'm still going to get annual Krown treatment for it.

[@rightlanehog3151]

When the day eventually comes to replace my Vibe, the RAV4 Hybrid is top of the list. As I have taken the Vibe to Krown every year and completed all the other preventative maintenance, the date of replacement is still some years away.

[@ghenry85]

@@rightlanehog3151 The Vibes with the 1.8 litre were a great vehicle. The Corrolla Cross is a very near miss in my view. If they offered the 2.4 litre from the Rav4, it would be really tough to say no to. I think it was a miss also not to use the Rav4 hybrid system in the Corrola Cross. It capable of getting better gas milage, as seen when it's used on the Camry Hybrid.

[@rightlanehog3151]

@@ghenry85 Yes, the 2.5 and 2.5 Hybrid system for the Cross is the obvious choice. I don't know how Toyota blew that one. As things stand, the RAV4 Hybrid just makes more sense. Having said that, I would like to see the upgraded 2.5 -245 hp Hybrid system from the Sienna/Highlander available on the RAV4. It seems like there is no penalty in fuel economy yet a nice boost in power. 😁

I have a 2020 Rav4 Hybrid and plan to get my high voltage cable inspected before my warranty is up. I'm in southern Ontario and while we don't get much snow here they do pour a lot of salt on the roads at even a hint of icy/snowy weather. Come on Toyota do the right thing! It's a high voltage cable that powers the rear electric motors of the hybrid system. It should be covered under the hybrid system warranty of 8 years or 160,000 km (in Canada).

I wish Toyota would take a lot more cues from their Mazda partnership... You get into a CX-5 from 2017-current comparing trim line to trim line to a conventional Rav4, and the differences are very obvious in Mazda's favor... Have owned plenty of both brands, worked professional Toyota service, but lately Toyota IMO and experience is using up a lot of their previous generally well earned reputation.

[@morgynwiththewhy9507]

Would like to see a comparison between cross xse and rav4 when it comes out.

[@jasonettorre7114]

I have the Corolla Cross and it has been great for suburban and urban driving. It's very good to those speeds, and gets to highway speed, but that's all it can do. Enough for its customers, if they're honest. A bit noisy above 80km/h but it's got quieter after 10,000km. Didn't want a car as large as the RAV4. I thought they'd have sold better if the hybrid was available right away. They should have had that available from the start. Lexus UX is the same platform but has had the hybrid for a couple of years already so there's no reason CC didn't.

[@Skyborn-]

The exhaust systems in Toyotas are usually set up to get noticeably louder after 4,000 RPM. I think they do this on purpose to discourage drivers from utilizing the higher RPM range, thus potentiating a longer life engine. Higher RPMs sometimes causing problems of overheating a very specific area in a head or engine block.

[@robertduklus6555]

toyota is cutting cost in sound deadening department, thats all it is.

[@joa8593]

The RAV is for the US market, but one thing I find interesting is Japan uses less corrosive salts for their roads than the US and Canada. Magnesium chloride in particular is horrible stuff, while Japan uses calcium chloride which is much less corrosive than even regular rock salt and in cities often carbonated sprinklers. This may be why Japanese cars often struggle with rust despite being engineered in a snowy country.

Well said Zack, the made-in-Canada RAV4 Hybrid is the standout in the compact CUV category. Toyota will figure out a solution to the high voltage cable issue and then drivers will go back to fully enjoying their more spacious, more powerful and more EFFICIENT RAV4 Hybrid. The comparatively poor fuel efficiency of the Cross can be blamed entirely on Toyota's decision to use the undersized and over-stressed 2.0 Corolla engine in a vehicle that weighs just as much as a Camry. Finally, the Corolla Cross Hybrid shown in last month's previews has no room for a space saver spare tire which is another major drawback. The RAV4 Hybrid can accommodate a full-size spare if owners are not satisfied with the temporary spare that comes with every model. 😁

@@jxmar_ Yes, I was fully aware of that. Did you know there are also places where the RAV4 and Camry come with the 2.0? Luckily Toyota knows better and put the right engine in ours. As the Cross weighs as much as a basic Camry and costs about as much, it too should have received the 2.5 for Hybrid and non-Hybrid applications.

OMG is Andrea saying ROV4?

Wish they wouldn't have put a CVT in the Corolla.

What is wrong with a CVT in the Corolla Cross ??

[@walnoremac]

I have the Cross which vin number beginning with 7, Made in Oceania . They interior quality same as the domestic car like 90’s, very bad. Never expect 2022 still has poor quality interior for Toyota and ship all the way from Oceania to canada

[@mikej238]

Canada gets theirs from the US , you still have the crappy 1.8l engine

The hybrids will be trouble free for 10 years. After that, the repair costs will be higher when they break

I live in South Carolina. I don't want a sun roof or 4 wheel drive. Let Scotty Kilmer start talking about that corrosion. They will fix it then

the grill of the regular corolla cross has lonely appeal......i like the grill of the hybrid better
