BR-V vs Stargazer vs Xpander Cross vs Veloz: Subcompact seven-seater Big Test part two | Top Gear PH
  • 9 months ago
Finally, here’s part two of our subcompact seven-seater Big Test featuring the Honda BR-V, the Hyundai Stargazer, the Toyota Veloz, and the Mitsubishi Xpander Cross. Part one, which covered acceleration and braking, cargo space, and extra features, ended with the Stargazer in the lead. We now have five more tests to go to determine which contender takes the win.

This second and final installment will cover ride comfort, handling, interior space, maneuverability, and value for money (including fuel economy). Just to remind you, all the competitors here are in top-spec trim. The BR-V, priced at P1,390,000 for the VX trim, makes 119hp and 145Nm. The Stargazer, selling for P1,288,000 for the GLS spec, generates 113hp and 144Nm. The Xpander Cross, valued at P1,328,000, puts out 103hp and 141Nm; it’s also the only contender still equipped with a four-speed automatic, while the rest have continuously variable transmissions. Finally, the Veloz, with an asking price of P1,250,000 in V form, boasts 105hp and 138Nm.
