Does anyone want to see a CROSS VS CHR video!? Let me know!!?

We have a 2021 RAV4 XLE and just purchased a 2022 Corolla Cross XLE and I can say that the Cross handles better. The cross feels like a mini Lexus and has less engine noise and excellent visibility at all angles. It looks like a mini Highlander from the back. The cross goes over big potholes and bumps much smoother than the RAV4. The RAV4 is bigger inside for both passengers and cargo and handles better in the snow with the snow mode option. The RAV4 is a great off-roader for a small SUV. I also like the sport mode on the RAV4, but that uses more gas than ECO mode. The RAV4 has more power than the cross and reaches speed faster, but is less smooth at high speeds and actually has a little bit of shaking when reaching 75 miles per hour or more. This shaking is how the RAV4 was from after reaching 500 miles on the ODO when we took it up to greater speeds, and is not due to alignment issues. Our RAV4 has the weather package with the heated seats, window, and steering wheel, and I love that package. The Corolla Cross does not come with a heated steering wheel, which I need. It also does not have lighted door lock/unlock buttons and at night you have to know where they are located by touch. The cross does allow you to remote start the engine and change the analog speedometer to digital because the analog display is default and you can't see how fast you are going. See KZfaq Corolla videos for info. Both vehicles are good for gas mileage, but the cross has a smaller gas tank and you will be filling up often. I like that the Cross XLE has all the new driver features for my son such as blind spot and rear cross traffic, as well as backup camera with parking gridlines. My 20 year old enjoys the RAV4 and would not trade it for a Corolla Cross and it still has all those new driver features. The RAV4 sits higher up from the ground and the RAV4 feels like it would be safer in a crash than the Cross. The RAV4 is more comfortable for 4 passengers and all their stuff, but for around town driving with just 2 people, I would prefer to drive the more luxurious-feeling Corolla Cross. The RAV4 feels more sporty and bumpy and I don't like the engine roar even though it has more power. The RAV4 has decent visibility and the blind spot monitor helps. Thanks for your video!

I love my Corolla cross ! It drives smooth , super quiet !! ;)

Wow when you put the Corolla cross and the RAV4 Side by side, they really look the same size

Wohoooo my 2023 Corolla Cross LE AWD just arrived today and sooooo in love with it! Thanks Scottsdale Arizona Right Toyota delivered after 2 days order! You’re amazing!!!👏👏👏

Thanks for the detailed video!

Thanks..Didn't know the cross existed until yesterday. Looks solid as was thinking about the rav4 for my daughter but cross hits all the boxes. Im waiting to upgrade my 2nd generation sequoia with the 2023 sequoia. One thing toyota does is last a long time.

Thankyou, I can't believe no one else has done this yet. The corolla cross is a welcome entry between the tiny C-hr and the slightly larger Rav4.

Thanx for the side by side. Ur correct, there ISN'T much difference. I'd like comparison of basic/top of the line AWD on both, PRICE-WISE. How much difference. This is what will determine popularity. I'm tryn to convince friend when she's ready.

i have the corolla cross with 2.0 engine. i use extreme driving style to get 5.0L/100km, which is 49 MPG. i never go over 100km/h, seldom let the engine go over 2500rpm when accelerating and hyper mill when ever possible. so l smile when i see the gas pump, and its a different kind of fun to squeeze for MPG.

Hey guys! You have all been asking me about a side by side comparison of the 2022 Toyota Corolla cross VS the RAV4! Here it is, let me know what you think!

This is great. I was genuinely curious about the differences.

Great work, thank you so much for explaining the difference between one of the most famous SUVs of Toyota. This video will give plenty of information for new buyers who don't know the difference. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

No wonder the Corolla Cross became South Africa's #1 selling passenger vehicle in November, the very first month it went on sale.

I’m getting a white Cross. I currently have a Corolla Hatchback in Blue Flame. I want more space as I’m traveling more. Nice video! Thx!

This is the video that Im searching for prefect thank you!

just heard about this model; its the rightful successor to the first corolla cross over, the Ontario made Toyota Matrix, discontinued >10 years ago. The other hatchback corollas are too small, and only the Rav4 was similarly sized inside both for people, trunk capacity, and ground clearance. Great utilitarian vehicle that won't break the bank. The matrix has niceties that make it hard for me to give up, like split rear window/hatch, and not having wipers in the base trim as in heavy rain or snow, you can't see out of the rear window without it clearing the view.

Awesome review , tremendous , thank you sir.

Great review, was waiting for this one. Thanks.

Excellent review! I was wanting. To see this side by side comparison😀👍

Thank you.👌 Nice video.

Both are fabulous

Love my Corolla Cross 2022 💕 I watched this video in order to help/guide my choice. Lately is really hard to find cars available for test drive (world after COVID). The video was really helpful and I liked your approach. The Corolla Cross is absolutely gorgeous and very, I mean truly, affordable. The technology put on this car is amazing and I was impressed on how spacious the car is. ✨✨✨ Team Corolla Cross!

I still love Rav 4, beautiful n macho...

When you showed the front view only I tried to choose which was which I got them correct, I liked the cross when I first saw them advertised but to be honest I’d go for the RAV4 to own

I have a RAV4 and I love both models

The CC is a beauty

I’ve owned my cross for almost 2 months which ai traded in my Subaru for (my first Toyota) and so far I love it my only problem no rear window wiper

Good comparison, thank you!

Thanks. Great review. The only knock in other reviews is the Cross engine is slow and the car is noisy on the highway. I think the Cross is going to be a big hit and fills a need..

Thank you for this

Nice side by side . cross looks just a little nicer

Thank you for this video ! I ordered a fully loaded cross XLE 2 days ago . Wanted a rav 4 hybrid d but with low inventory and my budget this was the best choice and after watching your video I know I made a great choice .

LOVE my Corolla Cross LE in red! Almost looks the same as the Rav and the cross is a tad bit smaller. I like compact cars so this is a step up for me. Cross is bit big for me to handle but just need to get used to being in a larger car and higher. The Rav and any other car that size is too big for me and it was an easy no to anything larger. I'm not having issue with road noise like some people said. And for the slow pick, who cares! I want gas savings, not a race car. No regrets at all getting the Cross. My sister is now considering one.

if the corola cross is 10K cheaper, i have no problem taking the corolla.🤭

Thank you for making this comparison, it was very helpful!

Can you please mention about the space on the second row seating for both?

Very nice and useful review 👍😊

Thank you .. I was waiting for this video

Thank you for comparison.

Most helpful video thanks!

Buying one today ♥️

Really detailed comparison. Nice job.

For the first time I have seen this new design of corolla. Nice car 👌. Greetings from Bangladesh.

Interesting! Thanks!

Wife just picked up her 2023 Corolla Cross and it's a great car. Only knock is the exposed exhaust when looking at it from the rear. That exhaust just makes it look cheaper.

Good video thank you bro.

Great job

Excellent review 👍

Thank You! I have been thinking about which of these two vehicles I should upgrade to from my current vehicle that’s on its way to 200K miles

Good video

This is interesting. I thought Rav4 would be much larger and longer

Very good comparison

I have a rav4. I am very happy with it. The cvt is the deal-breaker for me on the cross. I had a corolla le eco with the cvt n hated it. The rav is much more fun to drive and has better acceleration

Toyota Make good car,#1 world wide!!!!!!!!

Do you know the price difference for XLE vs XLE awd?

I remember when a rav4 was a Corolla w/ awd!!

I looked into Corolla cross because the msrp was very low at 23k, so I thought It was more affordable, but no it sells for 29k (cheapest I was able to find), I can easily find a rav4 for 30k with msrp at 28k. Those cross are marked up way more

Nice comparison, but wide angle really caused a lot of distortion, so it's kind of hard to understand the size difference

How come price wasn’t mentioned? It would be nice to know the difference

When you make the comparison, can you please compare apples to apples, meaning if one is LE than compare it to another LE unless they are equal to the price list of the cars which I believe you don’t mentioned. Which is a good information to have in front as well within the US. Thanks for your videos! ;)

Thanks for this!!!! So excited for my cross to come. I was a bit nervous it was significantly smaller than the rav

How about same color, park back to back or facing each others 😁 I like the CC’s front styling and Rav4’s rears

Gen 2013 - 2018 of the Rav4 is the winner in term of cargo capacities seat fold-down with 73.4 ft³ . Gen 2019-now lost some cubic feet at 69.8 ft³ & the rear opening is now narrower . No official number from Toyota for the Cross cargo , some source said 66 ft³ but I have big doubts about it .

The wide angle view on that camera doesn’t help with the size comparison. Otherwise a good review.

Does the Corolla cross have more cargo space than a Kia Soul?

I'm surprised that your comparison left out the all important price and gas mpg for each model

Need to wait for cross hybrid.

Not drastically smaller as you say, but the rav4 is not big to begin with. Any smaller it wouldn't be as practical.

Very good video but You forgot to mention the cubic trunk space on both

honestly, i don't get why Toyota even bothered. i know the CC starts at a lower msrp, but as a whole it just doesn't make sense to me at least. i can see maybe in different markets around the world where a Rav4 might not be available... just is confusing really to be in the same market. at least with the ford escape & bronco sport, there's a huge difference in aesthetics 🤷🏼‍♂️ maybe i'm just getting too old lol

Very good video

nice presentation

I feel like the taillights of the cross is a mix between the current gen rav4s and the ‘01 Corolla sedan.

A one Inch diameter difference in size is a lot. 4 inches in height is okay not bad, Happy Toyota came out with a Inbetween car.

Will the Corolla Cross GR Sport limited edition be available in Canada? in the near future?? It’s available in Asia…GR sport trim is nicer than the XLE.

I would rather pay AWD for the RAV 4. It would be pointless to get AWD on the cross in my situation.Thanks for the video.

Which do you think is safer? Theoretically the RAV4 has a bigger platform so this should be more safe maybe.

Is the Venza worth buying? Less units were sold and wondering if this crossover will be discontinued due to low sales!

Huh, I thought the Corolla Cross would be smaller. I have a 2021 Tacoma TRD Off Road, and a 1999 RAV4. The RAV4 may need a replacement soon, I like the CHR but it doesn't have AWD, and I like the current RAV4s but they can get expensive. Will have to check out the Cross.

A base model Cross would be great value even at MSRP .

If Toyota would/could put the RAV4 Hybrid (not plug-in) powertrain into the Corolla Cross, they'd have something interesting. As it stands, the car could use more power with less engine noise than the 2.0 + CVT provides when accelerating.

Offer the iMT manual from the Corolla SE!

I like the cross because of the size.

Cross Is my pick..I felt like the back seat of the cross was bigger.. while sitting at the back of the rav.. I felt like it was smaller even though it was not..I dunno.. cross felt more comfy to drive also

I have a 22 rav4 limited hybrid and I think it's pretty quiet... maybe the limited has better insulation?

Hi. How is the seated position compared to rav4 ? Is it the same height, similarly to an suv, or lower , similarly to a hatchback ? Does it offer that extra visibility of a suv ? Also how about led headlights ? Does it come with “matrix” adaptive ones or just led like rav4. Thanks.

I want a Corolla cross plug in

merci pour ce vidéo très bien, je prévois faire achat de la corolla cross

What you have done is great. I which if you add urban cross next to them 🤯. I feel all are the same

The AWD Corolla Cross has that strange raised floor in the rear cargo area to accommodate the suspension. The FWD Corolla Cross cargo floor is lower.

FYI, the current gen RAV4 is actually on Camry’s platform.

I❤ The Rav 4

Also, Cross has CVT transmission and RAV 4 has an 8 speed auto

What kind of camera are you using?

I only seen couple of the Corolla cross n I see more of the RAV4 since I got my RAV4

Ouch, way too much bass and volume on the music. Other than that, nice review. I drive a 2003 Vibe with 273,000 miles which is basically a Matrix. Looking for another car that will last 20 years and I think the Corolla Cross is it.

Maybe a CC hybrid coming late next yr.?

Could you compare the Toyota Cross hybrid and the Toyota Venza. Thank you

THe headlights are sleeker in front of the Cross and the rear light are bulkier in back of the Rav4s. The fog lights on the Cross are at the bottom very bottom, while they are on the side like of the headlights on the Rav4s.
