First Take

The Crosstrek delivers very good fuel economy and impressive ride comfort, along with competent handling that makes it enjoyable to drive on curvy roads. A plug-in hybrid provides a 17-mile mostly-electric range, and 33 mpg when operating as a regular hybrid, is also available. But the mileage improvement and the price premium don't make it a good value over the regular Crosstrek. The standard 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine is mated to a continuously variable transmission; this combination works fine and gets 29 mpg overall, which is among the best for small SUVs. A more powerful 2.5-liter is available and has stronger acceleration. The front seats are short on lumbar support, but the rear seat is roomy. The infotainment system is easy to use. FCW and AEB with pedestrian detection, BSW, and RCTW are all standard for the hybrid.

Model History

2026-Present

Current Generation

For the 2026 model year, the Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid returned as a regular hybrid powertrain. It is powered by a typical Subaru 2.5-liter 'boxer' engine, augmented by a 1.1-kWh battery pack. Like the regular Crosstrek, it too has a continuously variable transmission. The total system output is 194 horsepower, which is 12 horsepower more than the non-hybrid 2.5-liter engine. Naturally, all-wheel drive is standard. The cabin sees the analog gauges replaced with a digital instrument panel. The hybrid's exterior is distinguished with exclusive colors and wheels, plus obligatory badging. The Crosstrek Hybrid comes with the latest EyeSight driver assist features, adding a driver re-engagement system that can bring the vehicle to a stop if the driver becomes unresponsive to warnings while using adaptive cruise control. Additional active safety features include RCTW, reverse AEB, and BSW with lane change assist.
