A Great Car!

I love the car, it has come fully loaded & we are still learning it. It is the best Christmas gift I ever got before!

Just purchased used

We do a fair amount of winter travel so wanted an all-wheel drive. We also wanted something economical. So far this fits the bill on the fuel efficiency. My highway and city driving have surpassed the rated mpg. Having owned a Subaru before, I’m certain the winter driving won’t disappoint either. We purchased the Limited edition, so this has all the fancy stuff (Apple CarPlay, moon roof, heated seats). The Eye-Sight safety features are worth the upgrade. The low-end torque is great so you can accelerate from zero with ease. However this 2.0 liter does not have the best power above 45 mph. If you want that, perhaps try the hybrid. They are hard to come by around here. Also the 2021 Crosstrek has an available 2.5L with much the same fuel economy. Way to go Subaru.

I love all of the safety features

This car met all of my needs. I love the eye sight, blind spot monitor, back-up camera and Bluetooth features. It is the perfect size for me

Love my Crosstreck

I'm very active, do lots of sports pluss I live at 7.700 feet so lots of snow, car is perfect, NEVER gets stuck (has snow tires for winter) unreal gas millage (I get about 33 MPG) Has great cargo space for two people, campimping, golf, climbing, skiing, us a hitch bike rack. Before this I had a Lexus 330, wanted a new lexus 350, but could not afford, I'm thinking the subaru is a better car and much better value.

New to me car

This car had everything that I was looking for in a safe, reliable car for my daughter that has recently received her license. It has plenty of room, pick up and sporty looks, but also numerous safety features that are very important for a new driver and her parent.

You can't beat a Subaru

Subaru is a great brand. They are safe and reliable. I have never had an issue with the car not starting in super cold weather. It always starts. I drive a manual transmission and sometimes it's a bit stiff in really cold weather, but otherwise it's great.

Great automobile

Love this car. Has most of the latest technology, great gas mileage, and a pleasure to drive. Had a 2014 Crosstrek and just had to have a newer one.

Great car with all the features I was looking for

Just bought my certified pre-owned by Subaru Crosstrek Limited, 2018. I love it! All the safety and convenience features I was looking for, and low mileage. Plenty of room and good visibility. It will last me a long time!

Most reliable car I have ever owned.

This car is what we needed. We love driving out Subaru every time we go out town. It's great on gas. I highly recommend it to anyone else that drive far away from home to work.
