Limited with 2.5L Engine is Sweet Spot

I'm about 6 months into my fully loaded 2004 Limited trim Crosstrek and am very, very happy. The engine feels just right for the car, but I still somehow get 37+ MPG highway at about 70 MPH. Compared to my previous 2017 Impreza sedan, it's a huge upgrade: quieter, peppier, more buttoned-up, and rides and handles beautifully. The CVT is more refined, and the sound of the Boxer engine is more muted and pleasant when pushed. The upgraded X-Drive AWD options are terrific to have, and the EyeSight system is upgraded. I also like the added ground clearance and build on our increasingly rutted roads-- the Crosstrek just soaks everything up without any fuss in most any weather. I highly recommend test driving the Limited trim in the redesigned 2024+ Crosstrek to see how far Subaru has come in the last several years. While it isn't a powerhouse with the bigger engine, it can get out of its own way without a problem and feels incredibly solid and a pleasure to drive. For a non-hybrid AWD, I find the MPGs quite good (you do take a hit in purely city driving, but even then it meets the sticker estimate). In the past I drove Audis and VWs: I enjoy this Crosstrek even more. The new larger touchscreen console is just fine and includes physical buttons for temp adjustment and other common tasks. The only quibble I have with the electronics is the upgraded Harmon-Kardon stereo: the speaker set up is very forward-centric. If you're used to stereos with beefy rear speakers, you'll find the Crosstrek reversed: the front speakers carry most of the sound, even when you equalize it to push the center back. It's not bad, but it does take an adjustment. Otherwise, I really can't find anything to complain about!

18MPG city driving 2024 Subaru Crosstrek Limited

bought this car last year , got disappointed with ave16mpg on city driving on its initial gas filled from the dealer. Next gas full thank we we use Costco brand, it gave us anywhere from ave 16 to 18 mpg city driving. brought it back to Timmons dealer, the service guy told us to use different brand of gas. we did what the service people told us. The next gas we use was Chevron, and still gave us the same 18mpg city driving. This is very disappointing, sticker says 27 on city 33 on highway. One factor why we bought this car is mpg 27/33, but we are getting 18.

I have to say that I love my new Subaru Crosstrek Sport. I went to the dealer wanting a Forester Premium or Sport, but there weren’t any. The Crosstrek was my 2nd choice so there was one I could test drive. I ended up buying it. The seats are so comfortable and the ride is so smooth. I’m coming from a 29-year-old Geo, so it is like night and day. There’s a learning curve, at least for me, but I’m enjoying all the features. It has all the safety features I was looking for, 7 airbags for starters. The blind spot monitors on the mirrors are helpful. I suppose most of the things I would bring up aren’t really new to most people reading this. So, I’ll just say that I now really understand why all the people who I know that have Subarus, love them. My only downside is there’s no power lift for the back hatch available on the Crosstrek. That’s why I was hoping for a Forester.

Broken down twice within a year

Will never buy a Subaru again. I’ve broken down twice & had to get it towed. First time was 6 days after I got. Dealer said it was loose gas cap that shut off all safety features..? Second time, the battery died. Original battery that didn’t last a year. Wouldn’t jump either

I was looking for a smaller SUV than my Rav 4. I found it! Love the way it feels on the road as is all wheel drive. Seats are so comfortable. Just the right size for this mature lady.
