Subaru released the Crosstrek earlier this year and it quickly became a standout in the segment.

Some of the thing I like most are:

• the huge vertical central touch screen that is easy to use and has excellent clarity.
• 360-degree cameras for better visibility both on and off road
• Class leading safety features.
• Symmetrical all-wheel drive with twin mode X-Mode and 220mm of ground clearance, and
• Little things like heated front seats, electric sunroof, and steering responsive LED auto headlights.

The Crosstrek Hybrid comes with a 2.0L petrol boxer petrol engine with a 4.8 amp hour battery. It provides a little extra power and torque and improves economy by about 10%

Subaru Crosstrek gives buyers a choice of three different models with the normal boxer engine or two models with the hybrid e-boxer engine. Pricing is from a little under $40,000 through to about $50,000 drive away depending on the model.

Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid S final thoughts

I like the Subaru Crosstrek. Perfect size for an adventure based urban AWD SUV.

As this is a hybrid, I was looking for more fuel benefits, but its good for a mild hybrid.

The Crosstrek hybrid ‘S’ model is packed with features and is easy to drive and live with.

There is a hefty $3500 price premium over the petrol version. That’s a lot of fuel I could buy.
