2019 Subaru Crosstrek vs. 2019 Honda HR-V
The 2019 Subaru Crosstrek now comes with the EyeSight safety suite, carrying a comprehensive range of advanced driver aids. It also offers a smooth ride, and a dependable infotainment system. A well-polished interior is one of its great attributes too.
As for the 2019 Honda HR-V, you will see a refreshed styling in its exterior, plus it has new touring and sports trims. Sadly, its Honda sensing safety features is now optional.
Design & Style
The 2019 Subaru Crosstrek just knows how to combine rugged components with modern elements. This mixture gives the SUV a more upbeat vibe, one that will pass the taste even of the most discriminating drivers out there. Inside it, there are plenty of eye-catching styles as well, the most notable of which is the use of upscale materials to construct the cabin. Those soft-touch materials are irresistible, thus adding to its overall appeal.
The 2019 Honda HR-V seems to have revamped the look of its exterior, which makes it look similar to its brother, the CR-V. Inside this car, you will find a lot of high quality materials used in its construction. It is simple verging on boring, though, which makes it miss some points to tickle and ignite the interests of car buyers.
Technology & Safety
Part of making the 2019 Subaru Crosstrek a real standout is the presence of technologies that give it some character. There it is equipped with the StarLink infotainment system, which is made even more reliable by its 6.5-inch touchscreen display. It has a four-speaker audio, and it also integrates Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. For its EyeSight safety suite, you get to enjoy rear cross traffic alert, adaptive cruise control, blind spot monitoring, and a whole lot more.
For the 2019 Honda HR-V, you will find it kind of disappointing to see only a few technologies in it. It has a USB port, and a Bluetooth interface for its base model. The 5-inch audio display screen is also standard for the base trim. For your safety, you can only use the multi-angle rearview camera. Other driver aids come with a price.
Performance
Giving the 2019 Honda HR-V a kick for its 141 horsepower is a four-cylinder engine. This is way lower than the performance promised by the four-cylinder engine in the 2019 Subaru Crosstrek which can score up to 152 horsepower.
The Bottom Line
A great body, a beautiful interior, well-equipped technologies, a full suite of safety features, and a remarkable engine performance – all these things describe what the 2019 Subaru Crosstrek can offer. This car definitely gives the 2019 Honda HR-V a hard time catching up with it in the world of subcompact SUVs.
