The Car Connection's Take
TCC Rating

5.8
TCC’s Bottom Line
The 2020 Honda HR-V oozes with practicality, though gas mileage and safety equipment have room to improve. The 2020 Mazda CX-3 is stylish but impractical for a crossover SUV. The 2020 Subaru Crosstrek puts safety first, with capability a close second.
