The Crosstrek is the fastest-selling car in the United States, meaning it takes only 12.9 days on average to sell once it arrives on a dealer lot. Every Crosstrek comes standard with legendary Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, Active Torque Vectoring, and 8.7-inch ground clearance, making it a highly capable compact SUV. The Crosstrek Base and Premium are powered by a 152-hp 2.0-liter 4-cylinder Subaru Boxer engine. Both trim levels are offered with either a standard 6-speed manual transmission or optional Lineartronic CVT (continuously variable transmission).
The CVT models achieve EPA-estimated fuel economy of 28 city / 33 highway / 30 combined MPG. The 6-speed manual models are rated at 22 city / 29 highway / 25 combined MPG. The Special Edition comes standard with the 2.0-liter BOXER engine paired with Lineartronic CVT. The 2023 Crosstrek Sport and Limited come standard with a 182 hp 2.5-liter BOXER engine paired with a Lineartronic CVT. Both models achieve an EPA-estimated fuel economy of 27 city / 34 highway / 29 combined MPG. Standard on CVT-equipped models, except the Base, is an 8-speed manual mode with steering wheel paddle shifters.
The Crosstrek Limited and Crosstrek Hybrid further bolster driver assistance with standard High Beam Assist; Reverse Automatic Braking; and Blind-Spot Detection with Lane Change Assist and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert. Standard Steering Responsive Headlights on Hybrid and Limited illuminate curves as the vehicle steers into them. All 2023 Crosstrek models include seven airbags. The Rear Seat Reminder (standard with CVT-equipped models) is designed to help prevent child or pet entrapment by alerting the driver to check the rear seat before exiting the vehicle.
The 2023 Crosstrek Base trim has a starting price of $23,645 and comes standard with the Subaru Starlink 6.5-inch Multimedia system; automatic climate control; power windows with auto up/auto down on front windows; 60/40-split fold-down rear seat; power door locks and side mirrors; multifunction display with fuel economy information; tilt and telescoping steering column; keyless entry; security system with engine immobilizer; USB A input/charge port; carpeted floor mats; and more. ■
