2024 Subaru Crosstrek Review and Off-Road Test

Great job, but not everyone "needs" the 2.5

We wanted the sport but the horrible yellow accents outside AND inside with only one interior choice was a deal breaker

Do you know if the Subaru 2024 Cross Track can be retrofitted; modified or upgraded (with a off Road front bump-hangover reduction‼️🫤:) without disturbing the collision airbag sensors, or any other type of sensors that would make street legal.??? if that cross track had a more of a beveled or Canton upward nose-and forward protrusion reduction about 7 to 11,inches above the skid plate area.(the Ford bronco & the jeep wrangler.) would be history because what they have that most utility SUV vehicles DONT have IS.{Maximum forward angle approach. Or creep traction-capabilities)

That´s weird - here in Europe this engine is only available as a 2.0 L e-Boxer. It has 150 hp + 16,7hp E-Boost from a mild hybrid system (not plugin!)
that delivers also a additional torque of 49 foot pounds!

Hate the infotainment center

Might as well get the top of the line wilderness.

Just picked it up with the 2.5L. Had 2013 gen 1 before. Way way better.

Thank you for this comprehensive review. Actually, the 2.5 liter engine and the CVT are built in Japan and installed in Indiana. Way toooooo much touch screen tech. Way overboard. Good review brother.

Thanks for another highly informative Subaru video.

Just wondering what kind of mpg do you get with the 2.5?

Thank you

Все тоже самое кроме фар и Решетки радиатора

Hey Ryan, would be great if you could get every Subaru crossover in their Touring trims and do comparatives and reviews. I know Forester is being updated so would be great once that updated model is available. Your viewerbase seems to love the Subaru stuff so would be cool for you to show them Subaru at its most luxurious.

Great reveiw. I was wondering how this car handle in the snow and ice.... Since I live in Montana and not desert.

I like this color…what is it?

Built in Japan 🇯🇵👍👍👍 hell yes !! As a former skilled trades contractor at various GM plants throughout Michigan, I STRICTLY enforce a NO GM policy in my family !! Our Hondas, Toyota’s and KIAs have never let us down after hundreds of thousands of miles. Our LAST brand new GM vehicle left us stranded in sub zero conditions miles from nowhere after parts that literally were falling off it going down the road almost killing us when it swerved into oncoming traffic. That pile of “great GM feeling💩” nearly killed me. Moreover, it was in the dealer constantly for recalls and the for mentioned front end parts falling off !! NEVER GM, NEVER AGAIN !!

I have a '22 Crosstrek Limited, but I would NEVER, EVER take it offroad. Not built for that!

Is the 2.5 engine worth it? I like the premiums looks over the sport.

The trend has changed...people simply don't use vehicles like this for rugged off-road adventures. 93% of Crosstrek buyers are suburban females 34-47 years of age. They shop at Costco and don't change their own oil. And they sure as hell don't off-road.

🙏🏼

Good presentation! Thank you.

I have a 2019 crosstrek. At 6’1” I can just fit to sleep with the passenger seat push all the way forward and leaned forward.

super review as always :) pls tell me if plug-in hybrids are still available in 2024? Have they been discontinued in the US?

Thank you Ryan for your through and very informative review! I’ve always loved the Subaru crosstreck. Here in the Caribbean they are called the Subaru XV. I’m completely sold, I would like to buy one.

Very slow responding AWD even in X-mode. A way overrated AWD. VW/Audi and even Chinese Haval have more competent AWD and locks quicker than this ancient subaru with ancient engine, gearbox and living off their legacy of the mechanical AWD that they had but no longer have

I'm 5'3 and I fit perfectly in the back of my new 2024 crosstrek. I'll be camping this weekend..I'll let you all know how it went!😂❤

great review! I would add demonstration of how it drives in trafic jams. As I inderstand the car has this feature which the 2023 didnt have

Your title card should read "Crosstrek 3.0" - this is the third generation since its debut.

hello, could anyone tell me, where the vloger come from? USA or Canada?

Very simple road off roading to test this car, why not use the same roads to compare each SUV? My Crosstrek keeps giving me the overheating warning light, I think its the CVT thats just too weak for work like that. My old non-CVT Forester was much better off roading.

Ive got a 04 honda pilot. It only unlocks from the trunk, no radio (i use a wireless bluetooth speaker), no igniton cylinder wafers in the lock anymore and 170k miles on it. Starts up and gets me where i need to go. I dont have a car payment. With all that being said, I'll give many of you some advice. Dont grt caught up on the little things but focus on longevity and dependability. After a week, you wont give a shit, trust me.

Other than AWD why would you get this? Its small, they do not get advertised mpg(i know i own two subarus cause i needed cheap awd due to having a critical job) and was loaned a crosstrek during service. It also did not get mpg advertised. Has less features than other 30k hatchbacks. Idk all you get that is beneficial is the roof rack and awd.

I just got one in the same color. Thanks for a great demo and explanation of all the features.

The Eyesight module really blocks your view to the point that you have to duck your head to see under it. I wish it was still optional so that those of us who actually know how to drive could just do without it. I disagree that the benefit outweighs the reduced forward vision, because honestly it's really bad.

Booooo subaru sucks ass now..
Now I have to save a old ej impreza to get the car I want

Là fuori qualcuno condiziona le scelte che subaru fá per allestire i suoi modelli.
Anche da noi è scomparso il cambio manuale e il motore 2.0 turbo diesel .
Solo il 1.6 con cvt e il 2.0 cvt mild hibrid.
Speriamo che Subaru ritirni si vecchi
buoni tempi e abbandoni i cattivi consiglieri del mondo green

Thinking hard about replacing my 2021 Legacy with a 2024 Crosstrek Limited. The quieter, smoother ride plus the 10 way power driver's seat pretty much remedies anything that would have held me back.

Wth my former 2019 Crosstrek Sport 2.0L we would get 5,8L/100 on the highway and over 950 Kms autonomy before deciding to fill her up. That was the average on a 11 hour drive, with cruising speeds from 110 to 130 km/h. We would easily do 590 Kms on half a tank and cruise control set to 110 km/h. That was the only good part of it.

Road noise and hard seats killed my back, so I replaced it after 90,000 Kms with a 2023 OB Touring (non-XT), for which I regret for all the issues with the crappy infotainment and airbags/seat belt sensors.

Is that offshore blue metallic?

I don’t like that the manual transmission is dying 😔

Sounds like a nice vehicle with a need for some balls.

Does this vehicle have the 360 degree surround back up cameras like Nissan? I have had them in my vehicles since 2012.

Never, until they start to use actual gaskets on their engines, like th erest of planet earth does.

I read somewhere that they added more springs to the seat to make more comfortable.

The only thing I don’t like is they took away the mechanical brake and replaced it with electronic brake😖

As an owner of the previous generation trek I prefer the more masculine exterior appearance, the interior appearance and physical climate control buttons of the older model. Also not a fan of electronic parking brakes. Now that my 16 year old inherited my 19’ trek im really not sure what route to go for our next crossover.

Too expensive in Vancouver, got it mazda cx-30 instead 2023 GS

as usual, another great review. Can't wait for the Wilderness review.

I find it weird that a fully optioned out Premium is pretty much the same price as the Limited.

The interior for me just doesn't do it for this car......it looks like shit and really cheap compared to an older 2023 model. I had the 2021 model and the interior is way more premium looking...even in the base....Seriously subaru can't afford to put a few bucks into pleather cover for the stick shift? Why is the knob look like its plastic from 1990s with an exposed metal stick?
