Zeigler Subaru Subaru Crosstrek vs. Toyota C-HR
How Does the 2020 Subaru Crosstrek Compare to the Toyota C-HR?
When you start shopping for a small SUV, it can be easy to take for granted that it offers a capable level of performance. It is an SUV, after all! Sadly, many of the market's small-bodied SUVs and crossovers fail to deliver on the versatile performance the segment's best known for.
That's not a problem you'll experience when you're driving home in a 2020 Subaru Crosstrek! While its subcompact size makes it ideal for drivers in cities and with more casual needs, its Subaru pedigree still shines. With standard all-wheel-drive and a rugged-touched chassis, the Crosstrek is perfect for people who need something just as adept at every day as it as at weekend adventure.
The best way to show off just how much the 2020 Crosstrek brings to the table? Comparing it to one of its chief competitors. Let's take a look at how the 2020 Crosstrek compares to the Toyota C-HR.

What makes the Crosstrek great, however, is how much it offers beyond those essentials. Its rich feature-suite includes impressive media options, advanced active safety technology, and more! Even when you just consider the value of standard all-wheel-drive, the Subaru Crosstrek paints an impressive subcompact picture.

The 2020 Toyota C-HR
Toyota is a beloved brand thanks to its focus on value and dependability. The Toyota C-HR is a great example of that! Even at the base level, the C-HR provides a rock-solid package that's well worth your time and money. When you factor in its efficient performance and last-for-years reliability, it's not hard to see why it's an attractive SUV to many drivers.

Why is the 2020 Subaru Crosstrek the Better Choice for Me?
The 2020 Toyota C-HR definitely has some attractive qualities. Its base model is more affordable than the Crosstrek's, and its gasoline-only engine gets better mileage. Its standard safety suite is also top-notch.
The 2020 Crosstrek wins out in several important categories. It's more spacious and comfortable, has a more impressive level of output, and offers a hybrid electric powertrain. Standard all-wheel-drive and its rugged chassis design also leave it far better suited to things like weekend camping trips and bad weather, areas where the Toyota C-HR could struggle. These, in our opinion, make the Subaru Crosstrek a better for people who want an SUV that can actually do things!
