2016 Honda HR-V vs. Its Competition

2016 Honda HR-V
Martin Padgett Martin Padgett Editorial Director

The number of subcompact crossovers is expanding.

When the Honda HR-V hits the streets this year, it'll be met head-on by the Chevy Trax, a less expensive version of the Buick Encore already on sale in the U.S.

Two other brand-new entries are coming as well: there's the daringly styled Mazda CX-3, derived from the new Mazda 2 hatchback, and the Fiat 500X, a smoothly rounded, Audi-like crossover that shares its running gear with the Jeep Renegade.

The Renegade itself can be put in this group too, though it's undoubtedly going to appeal to a more off-road-oriented shopper.

Quick Specs
7.8
The 2016 Honda HR-V smartly trades a little of the Fit's fuel economy for exuberant styling, more headroom, and optional all-wheel drive.
7.6
With its useful hatchback shape and thrifty fuel economy, the 2016 Chevrolet Trax is a smart package for city dwellers who value practicality over power or style.
7.6
The 2016 Jeep Renegade has something to please both off-roaders and commuters, but its performance can seem dull compared to its engaging styling.
8.0
The 2016 Mazda CX-3 is stylish, well-equipped, and one of the most fun-to-drive vehicles in its segment.
7.6
The smartly styled 2016 Fiat 500X is no off-roader, but it might be the most useful vehicle from the brand yet.
