The Subaru Crosstrek has a stylish and modern interior filled with soft touch materials with a dark color scheme. If you're looking for glitzy interiors you won’t find the Crosstrek. As with all Subarus, the Crosstrek is more sporty in its interior styling than dripping shiny trimmings.  

The Crosstrek comes in two variants: a petrol version; and a petrol-electric hybrid.  

Both variants use a 2.0-litre petrol four-cylinder engine. 

In the pure combustion variant the engine produces 115kW and 196Nm. In the hybrid the petrol engine produces 100kW and 182Nm, while the motor produces 12.3kW and 66Nm 

The Subaru Crosstrek is a five-seater small SUV. Upholstery ranges from cloth in the entry grade to leather in the higher grade cars. It’s a comfortable and spacious setting for even tall drivers and passengers. 

The Crosstrek isn't the quickest accelerating vehicle but compared to rivals it's not too sluggish with a 0-100km/h time other about 9 seconds.

The range of the pure combustion variant of the Crosstrek with its 63-litre tank is 875km while the range of the hybrid variant with its 48-litre tank is 738km.
