Compare the Renault 4 E-Tech vs Toyota Yaris Cross
AI generated from our expert reviews
If you are weighing up these two compact cars, both the Renault 4 E-Tech and the Toyota Yaris Cross are easy to steer down narrow streets, and neither body leans too much when you tackle twisty roads. Under your right foot, the Renault is the more powerful choice. Day-to-day practicality brings different trade-offs in each cabin. You can fit a child seat quite comfortably in the Renault, whereas securing one in the back of the Toyota is a bit of a faff because its rear doors do not open very wide. However, the Yaris Cross claws back ground when it comes to cabin storage, as its door bins will take a big bottle with ease, while the door bins in the Renault 4 are a bit tight and struggle to hold larger water bottles.
