2021 Subaru Crosstrek vs. 2021 Toyota C-HR

The 2021 Subaru Crosstrek boasts of a remarkable interior and exterior design, making it appeal to the eyes of car buyers out there. The overall refreshed look in this cushioned ride is matched by an equally reliable set of technologies.

For the 2021 Toyota C-HR, expect that there is a comfortable ride that awaits you and your group. A long list of standard features is worth looking forward to as well. Road sign assist is now standard for this car model.

Design & Style

The 2021 Subaru Crosstrek gifts its users a total of 20.6 cargo space which can yield up to 55.3 cubic feet when the rear seats are folded. There is enough room to carry your belongings for that weekend getaway. The cabin can accommodate up to five passengers, regardless of size. It has a standard cloth upholstery setup, with orange stitching, and soft plastics that make the cabin look and feel modern.

In the case of the 2021 version of the C-HR, expect that there is 19.1 cubic feet of cargo space which can only reach up to 37 cubic feet when the second row is folded flat. That makes the area smaller when compared to the Crosstrek. Promising to seat up to five people, the front row impresses, but things are not the same at the back. This area is limited, and rear-seat passengers will feel claustrophobic considering that it has small windows, thick pillars, and dark color designs. Hard plastics add up to the disappointment in this aspect.

Technology & Safety

The 2021 Crosstrek has a reliable set of technologies to boast to its users. First on the list is its responsive 6.5-inch touch screen that displays crisp graphics as well as responds quickly to user inputs all the time. The Starlink infotainment system also has Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, four speakers, Bluetooth, and a USB port. The rearview camera gives users a safer driving experience too.

The 2021 C-HR comes with an eight-inch touch screen display that is equipped with logical menus. This setup is high-mounted, making it easy to see and use. Physical controls are added to make accessing climate and audio controls easier. It has Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Amazon Alexa, voice recognition, Wi-Fi hot spot, satellite radio, six speakers, and a USB port. It has a long list of safety features which includes pedestrian detection, forward collision warning, adaptive cruise control, and a rearview camera, but these ones need refinement for user to appreciate them better.

Performance

The 2021 Subaru Crosstrek has a 2.4-liter, four-cylinder engine which allows it to hit up to 152 horsepower. The other engine version is an inline-four, 2.5-cylinder, which gives it a maximum result of 182 horsepower. In the case of the C-HR, there is a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine under its hood, which powers 144 horses only. Stepping on the gas produces noise for this ride.

The Bottom Line

The 2021 Subaru Crosstrek gives you a lot of amazing features, with a modern touch to its interior and exterior. Its engine options make it defeat the 2021 Totyota C-HR more.
