If you’re in the market for an adventurous, rugged, off-road-capable subcompact SUV, the 2024 Subaru Crosstrek has you covered.
4 Key Features That Make the 2024 Subaru Crosstrek Stand Out from the Pack
1. A Fuel-Efficient Power Plant With a Massive Fuel Capacity
The Crosstrek comes standard with a 2.0-liter DOHC Subaru Boxer engine that cranks out a very respectable 152 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 145 lb-ft of torque at 4,000 rpm. That engine allows drivers to enjoy 34 mpg on the highway and 27 mpg in the city. An enormous 16.6 gallon fuel tank comes standard, which can allow driving ranges exceeding 500 miles per tank.
2. Excellent Driving Dynamics
It’s no secret in the automotive community that Subarus are exceptionally stable on the road. That stability starts with standard, symmetrical all-wheel-drive, and is only enhanced by the layers of technology Subaru has built into the Crosstrek. X-Mode optimizes engine output and gear ratios, tunes engagement of the all-wheel-drive system, and reduces individual wheelspin, optimizing traction on slippery surfaces.
Features like Hill Descent Control, Vehicle Dynamics Control, and Active Torque Vectoring all combine to keep the vehicle stable in unpredictable terrain. The Crosstrek also features 4-wheel independent raised suspension, electric power-assisted rack and pinion steering, and an all-wheel, all-speed Traction Control System to maintain excellent stability.
3. Safety Comes Standard
The NHTSA rated the 2024 five stars overall, including five stars in all frontal and side crashes. Additionally, the four-wheel disc anti-lock brakes are augmented by Brake Assist, a technology that detects and augments emergency braking. If a driver accidentally presses the brake and the accelerator at the same time, the Brake Override System engages to reduce throttle input and maximize brake input to prevent accidental acceleration.
But the most impressive safety feature by far is the Eyesight technology, which uses multiple cameras to detect changes in traffic conditions to automatically respond when the Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control is engaged. It offers everything from pre-collision braking to lane departure and sway warnings, and even an Automatic Emergency Steering feature.
4. A Comfy Interior and Great Cargo Capacity
The Crosstrek sports a roomy 56.8 inches of shoulder room, 42.9 inches of legroom, and 39.8 inches of headroom in the front seats, with almost as much for rear passengers. A total of 100.5 cubic feet of passenger volume makes the Crosstrek a great ride to haul friends, family, and pets wherever you’d like to go. If cargo takes priority and the already-roomy 19.9 cubic feet of storage isn’t enough, simply fold down the 60/40 split back seat and let the hatch compartment soar to 54.7 cubic feet.
