2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek first drive | Consumer Reports

The Subaru XV Crosstrek is basically a raised-up Impreza Sport hatchback. Added ground clearance might appeal to Subaru’s outdoorsy buyers, and the car’s unique styling will probably attract others as well.

When will you take the CR-V 2013 for a spin?

Very good first family car cuv thing.
رائعه سيارات سوبارا عموما
I heard about asia that car market is lesser compared to US(due to vast mass transit systems, 2 wheelers, etc…)..so for a given model they cannot offer several trim levels like in US but rather they put everything in one trim or 2 trims at most and sold as luxury..for example, honda accord is priced in luxury range in Asia and some of its features are not available even in highest trim in US. basically comes down to limited but growing market and hence luring in customers and establishing bus
the smarter buyer that just needs AWD for snowy winters would buy the Impreza hatch.
That car looks like it came out 6 years ago, it doesn't look like it belongs for 2013 more like 2005
For those who miss the Old Subaru Outback Sport — this is your vehicle.
WANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
all the cars in this segment looks weird, this should be called weird class!!!
I hate the fact how CR journalist has basically already made up his mind on how he feels about the CrossTrek and says they're going to purchase one for full testing. Save the money and buy something else seeing you already hate the CrossTrek and what it stands for. I say it looks great and it's a great idea seeing Subaru's are already 4X4 vehicles.
Love these reviews, thanks very much for them.
i refuse to answer your question lol however I will recommend that you think on it a bit 😛
I really like this XV CrossTrek, nice ground clearance wonder what's the powertrain and some rough numbers as to fuel economy.. i am in a market for an upgrade from my Matrix but need something that can pull a bike trailer. I was looking at the Juke but friend that has it showed me on paper how many time's her CVT went sour, i guess Nissan should refine it..
Tom, you're a great reviewer but PLEASE work on your diction and word choice.
Even in Canada it comes with HID headlights, dual climate controls (compared to single), rain sending wipers and a more comprehensive multi-function display. Plus, you can get the manual transmission on all trim levels. Grrrr…
Love my Crosstrek with the manual 🙂
Love me some subaru 🙂
Crosstrek would be way cooler with a bit more power. With a vehicle that's supposed to go offroad, and with that height it should be quite a bit torquier
Cost. Options like that would put the price of the XV too close to the Outback.
Rav is also almost 2 inches lower to the ground
Unfortunately, the US is not the test market of choice, our market is not as well receptive of new technological advances, nor are most people looking for an entry-level vehicle wanting to pay for features most companies charge extra for. Europe and other markets have specifically embraced the hot hatch market, because you get the versatility of an suv without sacrificing so much on gas… America is still a very small niche in hatches, and introducing one is hard… Id expect these feats. later
With any luck Subaru will eventually offer the 2.0 turbo from the new forester in the xv and legacy… The death of the 2.5 turbo was sealed with the death of their 5 speed auto option
Its what they discovered most possible owners in the US would want, launching variable options in different countries involves a vast amount of research, I guess people in the US want a more simple product.
If you don't like the CVT, wait for the DCT in 2014
I would buy this over the regular Impreza wagon, looks cooler, but it does need a lot more power. It's too slow.
It gets 'loud' inside? yes, but not enough to be a problem and most Subaru owners ( I have owned 8 over the last 30 years) ….Love that 'Boxer' sound…..non Subaru fans don't/won't get it!….but that's OK.
