The 2025 Subaru Crosstrek is a subcompact SUV that crosses all boundaries. It's as capable off the beaten path on a weekend camping trip as it is picking up groceries in town. Adventurous styling, ample cargo space, and generous ground clearance all help the Crosstrek stand out. Flat-Four Engine The SUBARU BOXER engine is a signature throughout Subaru's lineup. Instead of a "V" configuration, all four cylinders are opposed on the same horizontal plane. This balances the opposing forces of the firing cylinders, requiring fewer, lighter parts to compensate for vibration in the motor. Continuously Variable Transmission Another signature Subaru feature is the Lineartronic continuously variable transmission with Adaptive Control and Incline Start Assist. By adjusting properties of the transmission, engine control unit, and throttle, Subaru Intelligent Drive provides two driving modes. Different modes provide greater fuel efficiency, more power and traction, or a smoother ride for you and your passengers. more Versatile All-Wheel Drive Subaru's X-MODE electronically controls the transmission ratio, engine output, brakes, and Vehicle Dynamics Control (VDC) systems to keep all four tires connected to the road without spinning free. This fine traction control, along with the 8.7" ground clearance, lies at the heart of the Crosstrek's off-road performance. It also enables several other performance-enhancing features, like Hill Descent Control, to help maintain a constant speed when going downhill. Active Torque Vectoring, in combination with the VDC, applies the brakes to the inside front wheel when turning for tighter cornering, more neutral steering, and better handling. Towing and Cargo Capacity The Crosstrek boasts 1,500 lbs of towing capacity and 54.7 cubic feet of internal cargo space with the back seats folded down, 19.9 cubic feet with the seats up. There are two grocery bag hooks and four tie-down hooks included in the cargo area to keep everything secure. The front doors have pockets deep enough for water bottles and other loose items you may want close at hand in addition to the driver's and passenger's cup holders. EyeSight Driver Assist Technology Subaru's driver assistance suite includes Automatic Emergency Steering and Braking, Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Departure and Lane Keep Assist technologies, and Pre-collision Braking. There's also a rear-facing camera combined with Reverse Automatic Braking, Blind Spot Detection, and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert for maximum safety while backing up or changing lanes. Fuel Efficiency The 2.0-liter, four-cylinder SUBARU BOXER engine rates 27 mpg in the city and 34 mpg on the highway. The Crosstrek boldly crosses boundaries, providing a seamless driving experience from the city to the mountains.
