Subaru Crosstrek - Review, Specs, Pricing, Features, Videos and More

Subaru is a company that always seems to find a niche. Twenty years ago, everything the brand made had a bit of rally racing baked in. But sadly, times have changed and so have consumer tastes. Crossovers and SUVs are all the rage now, especially those that are ruggedized and exude an active lifestyle. Subaru has jumped right in on this trend, finding a new sub-market with the Wilderness line of vehicles.

For those unfamiliar with these models, Wilderness is the term Subaru uses to designate the more off-road capable versions of the brand’s SUVs. Already on the market is the Forester Wilderness and Outback Wilderness. Now those vehicles welcome a third member to the family, the Crosstrek Wilderness.

Buyers sure do love the Subaru Crosstrek.

Not only is Subaru’s smallest SUV the sales leader in its class, it shifted enough units to be the 15th most popular vehicle in America in 2022. A whole new Crosstrek arrives for the 2024 model year. No really, even if it doesn’t look like it, this latest model arrives with a new platform and a raft of interior upgrades.

We grabbed two of the highest ’24 trims to compare: the Sport (Onyx in Canada) and Limited. Is the latter worth the extra outlay? Let’s find out.

Subaru is a brand that embraces evolutionary updates opposed to revolutionary ones. The company is very conservative when it comes to model redesigns and some consumers have a hard time telling the new vehicle apart from the old one.

Case in point, the 2024 Crosstrek. All-new this year, it’s very similar in appearance to the previous generation model. Subaru has a loyal customer base, so the brand doesn’t want to alter the formula too much. But there are differences, and more importantly, improvements, in the new Crosstrek.

To highlight these changes, we grabbed a 2023 Crosstrek and put it side by side with the new model. Both are top of the line, fully loaded versions for a true apples-to-apples comparison.

The American and Canadian automotive markets are very similar. The vehicles sold in both countries are near identical, but there are a few differences, usually dictated by climate and geography.

There are, however, other variations between the two countries which is more manufacturer specific. Some brands do sell basically the same vehicles in both countries, using the same trim names and more or less, the same features. Other manufacturers, like Subaru, allow each country to specify their own model lineup.

The third-generation Crosstrek holds steady on pricing too, starting with a $24,995 MSRP.

Subaru on Thursday morning unveiled the 2024 Subaru Crosstrek at the Chicago Auto Show. As we suspected after the model’s Japanese reveal late last year, the third-generation model is largely based on the also-new 2024 Impreza, but with the added ride height and cladding that has made the model Subaru’s best-seller in the US and Canada.

The Crosstrek sits on the Subaru Global Platform once more, though the Japanese company has improved torsional rigidity by 10 percent. Measurements are all but identical to the outgoing model, which was one of the more spacious and capacious options in the sub-compact class. All 2024 models feature 8.7 inches (221 millimeters) of ground clearance along with Subaru’s symmetrical all-wheel drive system.
