If you want a car with excellent visibility, height in traffic, clearance to prevent pothole damage, consider this vehicle. You won't believe the smooth ride that Subaru has engineered in this compact SUV. My favorite parts, though, are the excellent safety features provided by Eyesight drivers' assist technology which has a high rating for crash avoidance. It monitors traffic blind spots, adapts cruise control, warns of upcoming obstacles or lane drift. It will even apply brakes should you not react in time. And don't let me forget to mention how cool navigation is with Apple CarPlay; you can run the whole system with voice commands. I appreciate features that will keep me safely driving longer, so that is why I choose the Subaru Crosstrek. I am a committed Crosstrek driver. This is an automobile that I look forward to driving and usually look for an excuse to go for a drive.

I've owned this car for about two weeks and couldn't be more pleased. I replaced a 2015 Chevrolet Colorado that was developing constant problems. The Crosstrek is really a nice car, certainly smaller than the truck. I'm six feet tall, the interior has plenty of room and the seats are comfortable. The power is fine, especially with a manual transmission, the automatic works very well, I just wanted a car with a manual. The manual transmission works smoothly, without any slop . It rides very well and isolates rough road very well. The steering is easy, and fairly quick, for electric steering it actually has some feel. I really enjoy driving it, and honestly couldn't be happier with it. I come from a family that's made it's living from GM, this is a very good car.

Con: The navigation system is bundled with the upgraded entertainment system. The Navigation is based on Tom Tom and you only get updates for 3 years. Using CarPlay you can get very similar results. The Eyesight technology is fantastic! It will save me from many potential accidents from congested traffic and poor drivers. I love the cargo space and how easy it is to load and unload. Performance around town is great.

2019 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)

I drove a 2013 Ford C-Max Energi for six years, but wanted a PHEV with all-wheel drive and higher ground clearance. Enter the 2019 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid. On the plus side, in addition to its all-wheel drive and generous ground clearance, the Crosstrek has solid handling, and its standard Eyesight safety features work well. Yes, it could use more power, but if you push it hard enough, the Crosstrek Hybrid will still accelerate sufficiently to get out of its own way. On the negative side, I've read that Subaru quality control has suffered a bit as of late and sure enough, my Subaru has some minor examples of this. There is an annoying rattle coming from somewhere in the overhead center console and a section of blue trim on the passenger side was loose from day one until I was finally able to force it into place. Speaking of noises, the pedestrian alert warning sound is excessively loud. This was confirmed by a mechanic at the dealership I bought the car from. He claims that the sound level is adjustable, but when he tried to decrease the volume, he said it would always default back to the maximum setting and no one in the service department seems to be able to figure it out. (A side note: my wife and I test drove another 2019 Crosstrek Hybrid before buying this one and the other one was so relatively quiet that neither we nor the salesman could hear anything to speak of. If I had known ahead of time that the pedestrian alert warning was going to be this loud, that might have been a deal breaker in itself.) Since the Crosstrek is based on Subaru's entry model Impreza, it lacks certain features such as dual zone climate control, power rear hatch, rain sensing wipers, fully automatic speed sensitive door locks and ambient noise sensitive radio volume that are found in other Subaru models. At the price point of the hybrid model, it would have been helpful to at least have these features available as options if not standard equipment. Anyway, the Crosstrek Hybrid will do for now until something better comes along.

Why consider this car? I compared it to the other cars of its class, but ultimately, I really enjoyed this one for some key reasons. It's Eyesight technology is top notch, and it also makes highway driving a relaxing affair to and from work. I do mostly long highway commutes with a little city driving, so MPG is also excellent. I wanted a car that I could rely on for safety and comfort, and I didn't really care about the "slow acceleration." Honestly, it's not as bad as the other reviews might make it sound. You're not going to 0-60 in 3 seconds--it might take you 7 or 8 seconds. That's not terrible--in heavier traffic on acceleration ramps, keeping up and merging into lanes has not been a problem like I initially thought. The engine noise also isn't as loud as I thought it'd be during the initial test drive. At 80MPH, I hear more road noise and air than I do the engine (barely audidle). It has a satisfying hum to it during acceleration.
