Best vehicle I ever owned

I own several American cars in the past and I'll never buy another American car again after buying this Subaru. I feel a lot safer and a lot more comfortable in the Subaru Crosstrek than I ever felt in any American car built that I ever drove

From a 3 row SUV to hatchback

I’m 6 foot 3 and always felt that I need a big car to fit me and my family. This car shocked me though! I fit wonderfully in the driver seat and my teenage son fits comfortably in the back as well. I hope this little Subaru lives up to its reputation.

Great! Car!! Super happy with it all around!

This vehicle meets all of our needs and then some. It’s gas efficient at 34 miles to the gallon, plenty of leg room, fully loaded with headed seats and great sound system. Love the little details like alloy wheels and sunroof included. We do a lot of outdoor activity - so the all wheel drive and good space capability is a plus. Love Subaru’s .... drives super smooth and is very comfortable for long trips ! Wouldn’t want any other vehicle. Great visibility and feels safe and secure while on the road !

Another great Subaru

This is my second Subaru. I had a 2005 Forester for 9 years before purchasing this in October of 2020. So far, it is great. The technology is easy to use and helpful. It is comfortable, has great storage, and runs like a champ.

Great all around car

We bought this car for our son in college. He has driven it from Texas to Washington and it performed perfectly. Great value and good gas mileage. A solid car!

Comfy, Great Milage, AWD, All around awesome cross

Amazing gas mileage. Comfy seats. Plenty of leg room. I'm 6'2" and a solid big dude. Definitely recommend the Crosstrek for anyone who wants reliable, AWD, safe and small family ( one 105 lb Italian Mastiff ) friendly rig. Depending on how much hwy I drive. I'm averaging 29.4 mpg and I'm not even trying to keep my foot off the skinny pedal or use the paddles in Manual mode.

Glad I Bought it

Just a fun car to drive. Fantastic in snow, especially fun in the mountains, very comfortable, simple to operate. The only suggestion would be to beef up the engine, although there is no problem cruising past anyone once you tax the engine a bit. Great gas mileage.
