2026 Subaru Crosstrek Premium

The 2026 Crosstrek is Subaru's compact crossover, slotting below the Forester and Outback with a rugged, lifted stance. It competes with the Honda HR-V, Toyota Corolla Cross, and Mazda CX-30, but stands apart with standard all-wheel drive. The Crosstrek's boxer engine keeps the center of gravity low, making it feel planted and confident on twisty roads. The ride is composed and absorbs bumps well, though the suspension is tuned firm to support its off-road capability. Inside, the Crosstrek offers a straightforward cabin with comfortable seats and a decent amount of cargo space for its size. Its 2.5L DOHC Subaru Boxer Engine W/ Auto Start Stop makes 180 horsepower and pairs with a CVT that mimics an eight-speed automatic when you use the paddle shifters. Option Package 13 adds a power moonroof and the 10-way power driver's seat with memory settings.
