2024 Subaru Crosstrek Consumer Reviews
Pricing
Do it all sub compact suv
Gets you from point A to B whatever the road conditions (off road capable). Easy to drive, affordable, reliable and safe. AWD standard. Quality Made in Japan. Best value and class leader. Resale value is one of the best. Subaru Crosstrek is truly the Swiss Army Knife of subcompact SUV's.

It lasted 2 weeks
The people who love driving this car either never go above 50 or always drive with the wind. Wind noise is crazy. Getting above 50 is not an easy task anyways, so I understand if that's the case. The 2.0L is wildly under powered. It's borderline dangerous. The plastic on the dashboard and sits is hollow and cheap feeling. That probably helps amplify road and wind noise. As for the tech. The screen is huge. Which also means the sun hits it at anytime that's not high noon. It's wireless android auto usually works, but when it doesn't connect there's a huge dance to do to get it back. I had a 2014 Outback and wish I had just kept it. The 2014s build quality was substantially better. The best part, my local Subaru dealership also has a Mazda lot right next door. The difference between the two brands is night and day. Plus, they gave me a great deal since they were getting the Crosstrek back.

Getting horrible mileage on my 2024 Crosstrek
My 2024 Crosstrek is getting horrible mileage. I only have 800 miles on it, but I got 21 MPH first tank, 22 MPG 3rd tank, 21.5 on 3rd tank and now on my 4th tank I'm getting about 21 MPG. I was expecting 27-28 combined, but I'm not even getting 25 MPG. What is wrong? This is horrible. I bought these car because it was supposed to get decent mileage and with the price of gas, this is not something I can keep. The dealer tells me it's due to the car being so new, but I find that hard to believe. Is it a lemon? Does an adjustment need to be made? UPDATE, I continue to get terrible mileage. The dealer says nothing is wrong. Best I've done with combined city and freeway is 23 MPG. I now have over 5K miles on the car and I am hoping it will improve, so far it has not.

2024 Crosstrek is a dud
I recently purchased a 2024 Crosstrek Sport in Alpine Green from Subaru of Kennesaw. I bought into the hype of “Subarus are so good! Subarus are so safe!” But after driving it for a few days, I realized I had made an awful mistake. It drives okay, yes, but the layout of the cabin is small, uncomfortable, and fittings look cheap. The dash is mostly taken up with an Ipad-sized display that is so laggy and difficult to use that I couldn’t stand it. On the fourth day, I dug out the phone holder I used in my previous car (a 2010 toyota) and went back to doing things on my phone instead of using Apple CarPlay. The “wireless charging,” a feature I paid for, does not work. My car charges about 3% during a 20 minute drive. I tried plugging it in with the provided USB jack but no dice, still doesn’t work. I imagine the useless and ginormous display is pulling all the available power. I turned the charging pad off and now use it as a place to put my sunglasses. Works great for that! My gas tank was also “loose” in its fitting on delivery, I have to take it back and figure out what that’s about. It doesn’t give me a lot of confidence in the build. I worry that the inoperable charger & glitchy display are signs they cheaped out other places too. Overall I’m very depressed that I’m now stuck with this car for at least 2-3 years. It’s the first new car I’ve bought in 30 years and now I realize how foolish it is to buy new. If only I’d known all these tech features I paid for would not work well! My car is green and I’ve named it Rue for the plant, and also all the sickening remorse I feel for my purchase. As soon as the money makes sense I’ll try to sell it to someone who hasn’t read the reviews for this car’s tech system. I just hope the rest of the car holds up until I can unload it without losing my shirt. In short, don’t believe the rah-rah Subaru hype. This 2024 Crosstrek is a dud. Wish I’d known before I gave them my non refundable money. Ugh.

I Made the Right Choice
I drive a 2024 Crosstrek Limited. It was the right purchase. Assembled in Indiana, it is very well put-together. All seams and materials are satisfying. IT is very quiet, rides very smoothly, has good handling and steering. While the interior appointments are not luxury, they are durable and tight. THe big infotainment screen can be a bit laggy, it is easy to master and offers many options. I do regret not having the option of a heated steering wheel (Canadians have that!), but no other regrets. If you want a great little vehicle that you will appreciate in the winter - especially, this is the one!
