Subaru has officially confirmed pricing and specifications for the all-new 2023 Crosstrek, the replacement to its popular XV SUV. With pre-orders now open, the five-model line-up will be available in showrooms from April this year at prices ranging from $34,990 to $45,090 plus on-road costs. Let’s take a look at what the new Crosstrek has to offer.
Powertrain Options
The 2023 Subaru Crosstrek range includes three petrol models (2.0L, 2.0R and 2.0S) and two hybrids (Hybrid L and Hybrid S). It offers an impressive 220mm of ground clearance and is based on Subaru’s latest Global Platform which provides 10% more stiffness than previous models.
It is also almost identical dimensionally to its predecessor at 4495mm long, 1800mm wide, 1600mm tall.
The two Boxer flat-four engines deliver reliable performance with symmetrical all-wheel drive and an efficient CVT transmission.
The 2.0 L petrol engine provides 115kW of power, 196Nm of torque, and a fuel consumption rate of 7.2L/100km; whereas the innovative e-Boxer Hybrid combines combustion technology with electric assistance for 110 kW and 196 Nm plus improved efficiency that reduces 6.5L/100 km fuel use – creating a smooth driving experience every time you get behind the wheel!
Safety Features
The safety features of the new Crosstrek are also impressive with standard EyeSight Driver Assist Technology across all variants which includes Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) with pedestrian/cyclist detection, adaptive cruise control with lane centring assist, lane departure warning and sway warning.
Other safety features across all variants include blind spot monitoring with lane change assist, rear cross-traffic alert and hill start assist plus much more depending on the trim level chosen.
Note that different trims have different levels of safety features included so make sure you check out what comes as standard in each variant before you make your purchase decision!
Interior Design & Technology
Inside the cabin of the new Crosstrek you’ll find plenty of creature comforts such as heated front seats with lumbar support (on higher trims), leather upholstery or cloth seat surfaces depending on trim level selected as well as an 11.6″ touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto compatibility across all models.
There’s also an array of driver assistance systems including adaptive cruise control with lane centring assist which makes long trips much easier by keeping your car within its own lane automatically!
The dashboard design has been updated too giving it a much more modern feel than its predecessor while still being comfortable enough for everyday use without sacrificing style or sophistication!
