Subaru Crosstrek Customer Reviews

Pros

• Fuel Economy

  Visibility, fuel economy, comfort.

Cons

• Interior Space

  Cup holders are a bit awkwardly placed.

Pros

• Value

  We already owned a Forester, so we were familiar with Subaru. I purchased Crosstrek for commuting. It has been reliable, easy to drive, and economical.

Cons

Pros

• Braking

• Power

• Dashboard

Cons

• Cargo Space

Pros

• Power

  It has a lot of power. Runs great up the mountains (haven't had a vehicle I don't think ever, that did not huff and puff up a hill)

• Ride and Handling

  Great ride and very easy to handle.

• Interior Space

  Nice and roomy

Cons

• Fuel Economy

  Don't care for the button that saves on fuel, shuts down, it is backwards, it should not be the default, should be able to select it when you use it.

Pros

• Value

  a great all around vehicle for Colorado!

Cons

Pros

• Ride and Handling

  This SUV drives so smoothly, and accelerates really nicely. Sometimes I have to slow down because I realize I’m unintentionally speeding. It has a nice ride to it in that I don’t feel bumps too much. It has great steering range for an SUV.

• Interior Space

  This SUV is so spacious inside without it being a large model. All of my passengers have complimented the space.

• Fuel Economy

  I drive more than the typical person, and I still feel like it has great fuel economy. I fill up maybe once a week to a week and a half. No complaints here.

Cons

• Technology and Entertainment

  It’s not necessarily a “con” but there is a lot to learn with the dashboard technology and it can be overwhelming, even to someone who is tech savvy. Do not attempt to learn while driving. Read the guidebook also for extra tips.

Pros

• Ride and Handling

  The car handles very smoothly, even over some of the bumpier roads in the valley.

• Fuel Economy

  Excellent fuel economy for a crossover. I've been maintaining an average of 33 MPG.

• Reliability

  Subarus are known for their reliability and good build. The direct fuel-injection system helps with gas mileage and longevity. Maintain it as you would any other car with oil changes and the like and it should last you a long time.

Cons

• Seat Comfort

  The seats are comfy, but the fake leather causes for static build-up with certain clothes.

• Weather Versatility

  You may have to replace the windshield wiper blades soon, as they go out fast.

• Cabin Noise

  Accelerating and at higher speeds on some roads makes a lot of noise, and the Subaru doesn't do an amazing job drowning it out, but it's not a big deal.

Pros

• Fuel Economy

  haven't been on any long trips but around town I average 29.8 mpg I'm sure it would even be better.

• Technology and Entertainment

  this is my first car with things like back up camera and such.

Cons

• Cabin Noise

  the road noise is very loud. for as sturdy as the car is I was surprised that it is so noisy.

Pros

• Ride and Handling

• Reliability

• Styling

Cons

• Interior Space

• Cargo Space

Pros

• Reliability

  Subaru has a great reputation.

• Ride and Handling

  Rides nice and turns on a dime...my wife says "it's zippy".

Cons

• Cabin Noise

  Road noise seems to transfer into the cabin but it may be caused by the tires...we'll see.
