Wheelbase 109.3 vs 106.3 inches (TCH vs HCH2)
Width 71.7 vs 69.0 inches

Interior space:

Shoulder (front) 57.8 vs 53.6 inches
Hip (front) 54.6 vs 51.9 inches

EPA volume:

Passenger 101.4 vs 90.9 cubic feet
Cargo 10.6 vs 10.4 cubic feet

Personally I don't see the TCH and the HCH2 as real competitors. They are too different in size and type. If I was looking for a high-mileage commuter I'd compare the Prius with the HCH2.

As mentioned in the other thread with this question, with stop and go driving, I'd get the Toyota hybrid in a second.
