Comparison Review

Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Subaru Crosstrek than in the Toyota bZ4X. The Subaru Crosstrek will be popular with taller drivers and passengers in the front seat, due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Toyota bZ4X.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Clearly, the Subaru Crosstrek is a better financial choice over the Toyota bZ4X, when considering MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the Subaru Crosstrek is much slimmer than the Toyota bZ4X, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. The Subaru Crosstrek is slightly shorter than the Toyota bZ4X, which may make it easier to park.

Handling
The Subaru Crosstrek has a significantly smaller turning radius than the Toyota bZ4X, allowing you to much more easily maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
The Subaru Crosstrek has a little less horsepower than the Toyota bZ4X.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the Subaru Crosstrek does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Toyota bZ4X.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Subaru Crosstrek and the Toyota bZ4X. The Subaru Crosstrek has less cargo space than the Toyota bZ4X, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
