2020 Subaru Crosstrek vs. 2020 GMC Terrain
Topping the list of things to look forward to when buying the 2020 Subaru Crosstrek is the inclusion of a stop-start function for its CVT models. It is also a comfortable ride that has the technology features that you are looking for.
The 2020 GMC Terrain comes with more standard advanced safety features when compared to its predecessors. It also boasts of an upscale and comfortable cabin.
The 2020 GMC Terrain features an impressive set of standard safety features and a handsome cabin, but neither area is best in class. Add in moderate performance and a small cargo area, and the Terrain’s spot in the bottom half of our compact SUV rankings is understandable.
Design & Style
The 2020 Subaru Crosstrek will easily attract the attention of drivers looking for a ride that can accommodate up to five people comfortably. On top of that, the car has been praised also for the simplicity of its interior layout. It has all the high quality materials that you are looking for in a ride, plus there is plenty of headroom and legroom to move around inside the cabin during a long travel.
Having two rows that can also seat five, the 2020 GMC Terrain has been cushioned for comfort. While the rear seats do not recline or slide, there is plenty of legroom at the back. The back seats, however, are made to comfortably accommodate two adults instead of three. While most materials are of premium quality, there are hard plastic pieces that destroy its overall layout.
Technology & Safety
The 2020 Subaru Crosstrek combines a remarkable Starlink infotainment interface with a dependable 6.5-inch touchscreen. It also has a four-speaker audio, a Bluetooth interface, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. This car oozes with a lot of available driver aids on top of the standard rearview camera. Among them are lane keep assist, lane change assist, blind spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert, adaptive cruise control, and automatic emergency braking.
A user-friendly infotainment interface makes the 2020 GMC Terrain somehow equal the Crosstrek in terms of technology features. This comes standard with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay as well. Charging options are also found in this car. Safety wise, the car comes with a following distance indicator, front pedestrian braking, lane departure warning, lane keep assist, automatic emergency braking, automatic high-beam headlights, and forward collision warning. It also carries a Teen Driver system, as well as a rearview camera.
Performance
The 2020 Subaru Crosstrek is powered by a four-cylinder engine that is paired with a six-speed manual transmission. This allows it to produce up to 152 horsepower. The 2020 Blazer, on the other hand, carries a 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine that can generate up to 170 horsepower.
The Bottom Line
The 2020 Subaru Crosstrek definitely defeats the GMC Terrain in a lot of aspects. It remains to be one of the most enviable SUVs for smaller families that are looking for a budget-friendly ride.
