Speaking of performance, engine specs are just 1 part of the equation. If you’d like better control of your drives, you will love the fact that every Subaru Crosstrek model is equipped with Subaru Symmetrical AWD as standard. The Honda HR-V has 2-wheel drive (2WD) standard and offers the option for Real Time AWD™.
What’s more, if you’re an outdoor enthusiast, you will want a vehicle with generous ground clearance. The Crosstrek provides impressive ground clearance (up to 9.3 inches in the adventure-ready Wilderness trim) that competing models, like the HR-V and Mazda CX-30, cannot match up.
