How the Toyota Corolla Cross compares with the Honda HR-V, Kia Seltos and Subaru Crosstrek for drivers in Victorville and across the High Desert.
The Toyota Corolla Cross is a compact SUV that seats five and comes with a choice of gas or hybrid power. Gas models offer front- or all-wheel drive, and every Corolla Cross Hybrid comes with all-wheel drive.
The 2027 Corolla Cross is offered in L, LE and XLE gas grades and SE and XSE hybrid grades. This guide compares it with three popular small SUVs: the 2027 Honda HR-V, the 2027 Kia Seltos and the 2027 Subaru Crosstrek.
Fuel economy figures are manufacturer estimates. Actual mileage will vary.
For 2027, the Corolla Cross Hybrid lineup simplifies from three grades to two, the SE and XSE. Across the rest of the lineup, Toyota says features and specifications carry over from the prior model year. Highlights include:
The 2027 HR-V uses a 2.0-liter four-cylinder rated at 158 horsepower with a continuously variable transmission, and it is offered with front- or all-wheel drive. Honda does not offer a hybrid HR-V.
Kia's 2027 specifications list a 2.0-liter four-cylinder with 147 horsepower and an 8-speed automatic on the Seltos LX, S and X-Line S, with front- or all-wheel drive available.
The 2027 Crosstrek comes with all-wheel drive on every trim. Subaru offers a 2.5-liter gas engine with 180 horsepower and a Crosstrek Hybrid with 194 combined horsepower, both with a continuously variable transmission.
