Swiss Army Knife of cars

Versatile, reliable, comfortable, fuel efficient. just a great car all around. Only slight con is that there is a bit more road noise than my previous car (Acura TLX).

Pros

  • Weather Versatility: Rain, ice, snow, gravel… doesn’t matter. nothing seems to faze this car. it’s a tank.
  • Technology and Entertainment: The upgraded sound system (HK I think) sounds fantastic. Apple Car Play and Sirius XM capabilities are a big plus. The Sat radio antenna always provides a clear signal. I’ve had several BMWs before and the signal was always unreliable. The Eye Sight system is far superior to other automated cruise control systems I’ve had in other cars.
  • Fuel Economy: 30+ mpg on the highway as long as you don’t mash the accelerator constantly.

Cons

  • Cabin Noise: A bit more road noise than cars I’ve had in the past but that is to be expected on an AWD vehicle with grippy tires.

Great car at a fair price

For the money, the Crosstrek has a great combination of value and practicality. It’s also fun to drive, has great room inside and is great on gas.

Pros

  • Value: Great value for the money.

Cons

  • Power: The Crosstrek has adequate power but could use a little more.
