- Опубліковано 14 чер 2024
- We know you guys are crazy about crossovers these days, so for this Big Test, that’s what we’re serving up-with a twist. The theme of this video? Past versus present versus future.
Representing good old internal combustion and forced induction is the 2022 Honda HR-V V Turbo, which marries turbo thrills with an extremely sleek exterior and a well-curated selection of features. Waving the banner for tried-and-tested hybrid technology is the 2022 Toyota Corolla Cross GR-S Hybrid, which also comes fully loaded with safety kit and driver aids-but at a premium that would still take a while to offset with fuel savings. And finally, leading the way to the future is the 2022 Nissan Kicks VL, which features a more novel form (at least in our market) of hybrid electrification and easily beats its rivals in terms of pricing.
Anton, Leandre, and Niky put these three crossovers in a series of eight tests to determine which offers the best package. Click play on the video above to see which one takes the win.

Excellent comparison. It's still a matter of priority. If you have lots of money, and appreciate the joy of driving, the HRV will beat the 2.
I disagree with the boot space comparison I think the Nissan should be in first place because the boot was in place with all the items stored while in the Toyota the boot cover had to be retracted
Your 1st test, the 0-80 kph is invalid since you revved the HR-V so that the turbo would be spooled before starting, that's not how it would be used in the real world. Just floor the throttle from idle RPM for all 3 cars, using it's sportiest accelerator mapping. And why the arbitrary 0-80, just make it the standard 0-100 kph test. If you want to test in-gear, highway overtaking then test the 80-100 or 80-120 kph acceleration as well.
For me the back seat comfort is a tie.
Cross elbow space is lesser while kicks has more while leg room the otherway around.
For the fuel economy, the other 2 are in eco mode while kicks is in normal mode. This one is clearly not fair regardless if kicks is using regenerative braking which should be part of the equation.
Kicks may have even beat hrv in terms of braking if set in eco mode due to regenerative braking assistance as well.
Especially when the kicks is in B mode.. the breaking would be mush better .. rigged!
They felt cramped most in the cross but still got 3 points???!!!???
Maybe because it has the best Head room n best hip room, 2nd best leg room, but with ac.
You should have included the Mazda CX-30 Hybrid instead of the Honda HR-V.
Finally. Toe to Toe. This will prosper my friends. Looking forward to other variants/model/brand
Why do i get the feeling na the cross was rigged to win? 😢
Hi, just noticed the remark at the end “even w/o double points, TCC would have won by one” computation actually without double points is TCC = 20-3, Kicks = 19-2, and HRV = 17-1 which makes the TCC and Kicks a tie. And honestly, there was very lil diff between the two’s consumption 27:25
definitely rigged to win
im looking at ths 3 ths year but how about NVH (tire & wind) driving above 90kph .. its very helpful if u considerd ths.. thanks
Interesting test, however you never covered the driving experience at all. The Kicks being 100% electrically driven, would have a hugely different driving experience than the other two. Examples of which would be NVH levels, 1 pedal Driving, instant torque of 280nm, ie all the benefits of a 100% electric drive train. This plays huge to anyone that enjoys driving.
Agree. Now they have the Kicks hybrid, maybe need to revisit this comparison test
If the TCC would have not been granted an extra point for braking, Kicks and TCC would have been tied overall. For the price point, power to fuel efficiency, guess who wins
This is really good video and insightful. this video is part of my purchase process of the three. thanks a lot.
Can you add the Seltos for this year's comparo? If ever you decide to shoot a new video like this one.
The Yaris cross hybrid is more equivalent to the kicks. The TCC is next level up.
Will you be doing a new comparison with the HRV HEV?
Does driver weight counts on braking and accelerating?
The Cross has low speed follow, it's just not advertised. Try to trigger the adaptive cruise control in traffic and it will do a low speed follow ;)
"And i'm Anton." Man, your falsetto is the winner.
Another thing I saw... For the corolla cross, you had to remove the cover for the trunk right? For the kicks, you didn't really remove the cover? How is that the corolla cross was better than the Nissan Kicks?
Wider, with a bigger opening and less intrusive wheel arches, so it was easier to do all that, even if the Kicks technically has more space.
Mas malaki ang HRV di lang naayos ang lagay inuna Sana ang child anchor seats bago yong ice cube ang haba nyan saka pang mabigat ang HRV na Cargo.. lahat naman nagkasya di lang pinakita ng malapitan kong my space pa.. sa paglagay ng gamit discarte.
@@BoyHonda2.0 it is around 1-2 cu.ft smaller than the other two. It is a noticeable difference
Veloz, BR-V, Xpander and Stargazer next comparison please. :)
I really like the TCC, for me the looks are superior compared to the two. I got a chance to test one last year and didn't really take a seat on the 2nd row. I was surprised that it has less shoulder and elbow room despite its size. But for a point difference versus the price tag, I think the Kicks and TCC Hybrid are a tie.
the 3-2-1 point system gives each category relatively equal weight regardless of how much better or worse the other cars performed, making the results seem closer that they probably are. the 21 and 20 km/l performance is 66% better than the 12.1 km/l performance but this isn't reflected in the 6-4-2 points. same goes for the other quantitative categories like acceleration and braking.
i definitely think HR-V could have fared much better.
Yep there needs to be weighted tabulation because consumers place more value on particular parameters
I think the hrv rs does not have the rear cross traffic alert for the Ph spec.
How about maneuveribility on tight streets, i guess its part of us here in Philippines, day to day living, 3 points as max where it can access tight streets, great Comparison Top Gear!
do this more !!!
always mentioning the kicks being stripped with leather seats etc to say its value for money. how about the non turbo hrv? compared to lowest variants of kicks nd corolla cross
This is such a joy to watch! Keep making these type of comparos. I hope u compared 3 hybrids though😊
How about NVH?
value for moneybahould be at keats 3-6-9 points and not 1-2-3 points only....its the most important for buyers.
Hrv definitely looks better in term of design, and not to forget it had magic seats that can tall, fold, and flat mode which tcc and kicks dont have.
You missed to add the paddle shifters in the HRV 😊
CVT transmission 🥱
Thanks guys! Hope next would be the Veloz V, Xpander, BRV all their high end models. The last time you did this is you used the Veloz g which is basically an Avanza. Hope you got this idea.
Yeah, agree with this! Include the stargazer also
dagdag nyo na rush
These guys have the charisma of a rock
Anyare sa TG Phils, secluded area nalang test location nila. Collecting TG mags when Sarne is the EIC nito. Maganda yung concept pero yung location.
One category missing out - maintenance and battery cost. This should have been considered. How much is battery replacement for kicks? 250k?
297k
I'd still go for the Honda HRV👍👍
id choose the kicks amongst the three haha
altho the guy with the glasses was really defending the hrv
and when speaking of cargo space i would think the kicks won that round
Kicks managed to fit the entire luggage without removing the top cover. In Corolla Cross they removed the cover
This was a fun review :D
Don’t you guys have a circuit to test?
i'd like to get an update on the toyota's android auto issue if ever you guys can test it again or if they mention a fix for it. sounds like a huge deal breaker that i haven't heard from other reviewers since most of them use iphones
Just got a 64.1 km/l on kicks today.
Maintenance and Durability. Id go for HRV.
With that unrepairable CVT that costs 300K at the casa? Lulz.
@@Tleilaxu_MentatThis is Honda that we're talking, not Nissan, lol.
@@troy5568 They're both using CVTs, both are unrepairable.
For someone who is upgrading the Kicks is very attractive.
Include head light visibility in the next review
Thank you guys. The best preview...now i'm thinking of buying the Corolla Cross😊
Did you buy? How is the experience? I’m thinking of getting one 😊
@@noski33No😂, i think i'll still to Isuzu MUX
Safety in modern cars is a must, however, I am going to rate the safety better in the Nissan as it packs the features that are most practical for not so developed roadways.
Is nissan kicks better for bad road conditions?
can you explain po how? I'm still learning and eyeing the Kicks as our first car
great comparison ut the yaris cross is a better choice vs the corolla
wow i just love the challenges
I've seen the Kicks and it is too small... if Nissan brings the Rogue, I will pick that over the other 2, even over the CRV, RAV4 & CX5, best seller sya sa North America market
which car had the most airbags for safety?
Walang curtain airbags yung HRV. Parang sinayang nila yung honda sensing
This test is why I'll get the rav4 hybrid.
Why 80KPH?
Tests are usually 100kph
omg. Calax at balibago complex sta rosa!
Kicks should lead in fuel economy, Hindi Naman pansamatagal Yu g fuel economy ng cross.
It is not fair to compare hybrid with normal petrol engine for fuel economy. Compare toyita corolla petrol engine with HRV and then make video
Great review!
is the fuel efficiency test a combined city and highway drive? I can't believe toyota cross is still better, although just a little.
Btw, Nissan Kicks VE variants (non-leather seats) not only gives up leather seats and fog lights, but also 360 camera view. right? So VE vs top variants has a hit in safety. and considering Kicks has the worst in safety features between the three, that is a big hit.
First time I learned that the Toyota Cross is a much safer car, my mind is set for Kicks. But still, budget wise, Toyota Cross is a bit too expensive for me.
My dilemma now is Kicks Ve or VL.
Leather seat is better. But my butts gets hot easily (experience in gaming chair even in an aircon room)
Fog light is not really a concern for me honestly.
360 camera view is actually the biggest concern for me. So can you clarify that one? is 360 camera view only for VL?
Yes it is. I'm also debating whether to shell out the extra 200k for the VL's 360 degree camera
Its VL only. Im a VE owner and the driving experience is just great. You know you could be faster than anyone if you need to overtake. handling is very good. Its just a different experience. A friend of mine who drove an EV said, it drives exactly like any EV. super quiet. I personlly think the VE at that price is tough to beat. regarding 360. Never really had an issue without it. I personaly dont find it necessary, but I understand some do want that luxury. But in any case you could always buy a third party 360 cam/dashcam less than 10k which has better quality video wise, If you really need it. wont ruin warranty as it can be done without cutting any wires.
@@ChelseaandCo. you can always buy a third part dashcam, which has a better camera. I dont know if it helps, but today I just got 64.1 km/l on kicks duel efficiency today. yup city drive during heavy traffic, i could get 17 km/l. all of this with a very much fun driving experience with kicks e power system, the handling, e pedal and instant torque is just awesome.
For the acceleration contest, driver weight should have been factored in.
aesthetically and engine wise...nissan for me! wala napa english lang ako 🤣✌️
okay, toyota wins here. by 1 pt. I don't mind the 9.8secs for 80kms.
2nd is KICKS
3rd is HRV - bad fc 12.1 km/liter vs 20-21 kpl for both electric/hybrid x-over
Dapat sinama yung cx30 ng mazda.
Design is a make or break. Should be the first category even if it’s subjective lol HRV all the way!
Rear ng HR-V parang si E.T.
Corolla cross, hrv 10 month wait. No units available even if we want to buy these vehicles
Hmmm... Good test overall :) one thing to point out. I saw that the FE test used Eco mode on both the HRV and Corolla Cross. The Nissan Kicks was on Normal mode. I think you should do a retest using same modes :) other than that, fairly fair testing! :)
It's a difficult choice. Eco mode on the Kicks uses fairly heavy regen braking, which isn't most efficient on the highway. But in traffic, we did toggle between the modes.
Yes, I would like a rematch.
Eco/Sports mode (with B-mode) can be efficient in highway drives. That's what I use. You have to get the hang of applying appropriate pressure in the pedal though. It requires a day or two to get used to which I understand that this review might not have.
@@cmp10 true! We did get the hang of it later on. There's a narrow window in the pedal travel in which you can coast without losing momentum. Hope that Nissan makes that window a little wider in the future. One pedal driving is quite convenient, but needs to be a little easier to master.
@@cmp10 same here, I actually use Eco + B mode, because you can actually feel the usefulness of e-pedal Step. Eco mode can be useful also in the highway, you just have to maintain at a cruising speed :) Normal is good for coasting but, if you can't coast continuously in a highway, better switch it up to Eco or Sport :) you'd get better FE either way.
@@nikytamayo it's pretty easy to get used to :) just 1 or 2 more drives and you'd be using it effortlessly 😁
The Toyota corolla cross is a great car, better from the others in everything (you can check it more)
Plus you can have it hybrid and awd
Kicks for me 😁
I want a terra e-power 😢
I have to say.. in the fuel economy run.. they never mentioned if any of the vehicles were in certain modes.. like if all of them are on eco or of different modes like sport or just ordinary drive..Like if one is in eco and other in sport.. logically the later would be thirstier.. the most economical, in their test , is the heavier, less powered and bigger displacement? Come on…
Value for money category, ang nanalo yung Nissan Kicks na maraming kulang na features na meron sa Cross at HR-V.
Sana cheapest nalang yung category mas akma pa. Hahaha
You guys missed the charging ports on the Cross as a plus 😊
Ford Territory andaming features for only 1.3M for the top of the line
Golf bag at the back?
Honda for engine/drivetrain, performance/stopping distance, very good price. Only downside is slightly less luggage area.
2nd for Toyota Corolla Cross and 3rd for Nissan Kicks
still go for honda
They forgot to include that Nissan kicks epower is excempted for coding... Damn!
All hybrids now exempt from coding 🤣
@@noski33 talaga? Sabi ng suzuki ertiga unfortunately hindi kasama hybrid nila... Correct me ha baka na fake news lang ako.
I would pick HRV S and not the turbo. No EV or Hybrids in our fleet.
The Honda looks way better than the other 2.
True and more than what was discussed i think the appearance has to have a deal breaker point!
Yes.. mazda na din yung design ng hrv 😂
Lol
Subjective. Ok sana HR-V kaso yung rear parang si E.T.
Way better indeed
The HRV wins this test on looks alone.
18:47
You should use a Vbox instead on relying on the speedometers
Liking the seat test
Kicls is the clear winner here.
0 to 80 the corolla cross almost 10 secs already
Sa Nissan kicks ako dreamcar ko yan
For bigger adults, you can always consider Hyundai Tucson. Hyundai always prioritize comfort, style and space comparing it with RAV 4 or if CRv as a 7 seater Hyundai Santa Fe has the same comfort. 🇵🇭
Wait for the tucson hybrids.
@@tonyrock5313 true awarded SUV in US and in Australia even in EU
You guys are unbelievable until this time you only look at Toyota.
Hrv pa dn panalo sa lahat, after 5 yrs pag palitan na battery nyan 6 digits dn presyo halos papantay na sa presyo ng 2nd hand car.
Nice Giugiaro!
I like this segment.
Same here, want more of this
Honda is the King
If the Kicks braked even just 1m shorter than the HR-V, it would be granted 3 points, and 2 pts for the Honda and only 1 point for the Toyota Corolla Cross. The Nissan Kicks would have won this comparo
Where is the points for fuel consumption? Lol
HRV VTEC TURBO. MY TOP CHOICE!
TCC all the way
How come the Kicks wins the Value for Money category when in fact it lacks lot of safety features compare to the 2. You are talking about the value for money not being the cheapest. Whew!
Toyotas and Hondas generally are more reliable and easier to service.
Why only 0-80 not 0-100?
Speed limits.
Plus 80 is the optimum cruising speed.
Plus space.
Yeah, very arbitrary. Speed limit in PH highways is 100 km/h, not 80. In-city speed limit in primary roads is just 60 km/h, so I dunno where they got that 80 figure.
@@Tleilaxu_Mentat The official speed limit on open roads is 80 km/h. 60 km/h on radial roads. It's only the paid, privately managed tollways that have a 100 km/h speed limit.
80 km/h is also the speed used in Car of the Year Philippines back in the day as an alternative measure to 0-100 km/h.
@@nikytamayo You were testing in private roads right? If the roads were long enough and there's no other traffic then I see no reason why you didn't just make a standard 0-100 test. The HR-V also had an unfair advantage in that test since the engine was revved high enough to spool the turbo before starting.
@@Tleilaxu_Mentat That's the rub. The road was not long enough.
To safely test 0-100 times, you preferably need at least 400 meters of straight road (though a 1 km strip is preferable), to give yourself at least 100m of space if there are issues.
I have alternate areas that are closed off to traffic, but neither of them were available during this shoot, so we made do with what we had. ;)
Yes, that would definitely be an advantage, but the HRV's CVT doesn't allow you to torque brake effectively, so it's still a slow take-off, especially when you compare it to the Civic with the exact same powertrain.
We often debated "take off" techniques in COTY before, but the conclusion was that "gentle" and "aggressive" were highly subjective, so just do what you can without destroying the car.
Still, noted on that. We were discussing simply measuring passing power (like from 40-60 kmh). But we are still threshing out what is the most useful x-y metric.
honda hrv the best
I feel nissan is much better then toyota.
Kahit anung gawin Honda is the best!!
What a bad comparison video.. lets be honest
