Key Features

The 2022 Honda HR-V and 2022 Subaru Crosstrek both offer fuel efficiency, a comfortable ride, and features and technologies that keep you connected to the people and entertainment you love. Where they differ is in what you want to experience with your vehicle.

If you’re planning to take to the trails for rugged off-road adventures, the 2022 Subaru Crosstrek comes equipped to support multi-terrain journeys. The Crosstrek offers a raised suspension and a higher ground clearance than the HR-V. All Crosstrek trims come with all-wheel drive.

If you’re looking for a daily driver that’s ideal for cruising city streets or highways and picking up or dropping off people or cargo, you may want to look further at the HR-V. You can choose front-wheel drive (FWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD), and you’ll find slightly more cargo space that is further maximized by flexible seating solutions that let you slide in an eight-foot-long item or a piece of furniture that stands nearly four feet tall.
