Core Specifications and Design Philosophy

This model year continues to prioritize functional design with an emphasis on safety, comfort, and practicality. Equipped with Subaru’s Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive as standard, the Crosstrek Base is tailored to provide confidence on both urban streets and off-the-beaten-path trails near Fenton and Chesterfield. Powered by a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated boxer engine producing 152 horsepower and 145 lb-ft of torque, it ensures sufficient response and smooth acceleration with a CVT transmission exclusively, offering an effortless driving experience.

Key Technical Specs Summary

Living spaces within the Crosstrek Base extend generous front legroom of 42.9 inches and rear legroom of 36.5 inches, supporting comfort during trips between Concord and Richmond Heights. The cabin design favors durability and straightforward layouts, equipped with materials chosen for ease of maintenance and family practicality.

Distinctive Styling and Practical Exterior Features

While embodying Subaru’s rugged but approachable aesthetic, the 2025 Crosstrek Base features clean, purposeful lines that blend utility with a refined presence suitable for upscale neighborhoods of Ladue or Maplewood. The dimensions measure approximately 176.4 inches in length and 70.9 inches in width, creating a footprint that balances maneuverability with interior spaciousness.

Functional Elements for Everyday and Adventurous Life

The Base model rides on sturdy 17-inch alloy wheels with a dark gray finish, paired with tires designed for all-weather traction. The 8.7-inch ground clearance ensures readiness for both city roads and intermittent unpaved trails in areas like Valley Park or Oakwood.

Additional exterior features include:

• Aerodynamically optimized design for improved fuel efficiency
• Integrated roof rails (available on higher trims) for additional cargo options
• Standard LED lighting for enhanced visibility during evening commutes or weekend excursions near Crestwood

This balanced exterior design grants drivers confidence throughout Missouri’s diverse terrains and seasons.

Performance Insights and Driving Characteristics

At the heart of the 2025 Crosstrek Base lies a powertrain engineered for reliable daily use combined with economical operation. Its 2.0L boxer engine paired with Subaru’s advanced AWD system delivers consistent traction in rain-soaked roads of St. Louis and on winter days around Maryland Heights.

Optimized Power and Smooth Transmission

The engine’s horizontally opposed cylinder layout lowers the vehicle’s center of gravity, enhancing driving stability and cornering capability, especially appreciated by suburban drivers from Sappington and Glendale. The CVT transmission further refines acceleration by maintaining an optimal engine speed for efficiency and responsiveness, resulting in an approximate 0-60 mph time just over nine seconds, which suits the practical nature and intended use of the Crosstrek Base.

Balanced Suspension and Safety-Oriented Braking

The chassis features front struts and a rear multilink suspension system tuned for a supple ride, affording comfort on daily drives into Maplewood or the occasional off-road outing near Twin Oaks. Disc brakes, equipped with vented rotors up front and solid discs in the rear, ensure reliable stopping power, with braking distances around 175 feet from 70 mph, supporting confident control.

Performance Attributes Overview

These specifications contribute to a driving experience that favors reliability and predictability, valued highly in the communities surrounding Sunset Hills.

Interior Comfort and Practicality for Everyday Use

Stepping inside the 2025 Crosstrek Base reveals a thoughtfully designed cabin focused on usability and family comfort. While prioritizing straightforward functionality over opulence, the interior remains welcoming for passengers traveling between Richmond Heights and Creve Coeur alike.

Ergonomic Seating Layout and Passenger Room

Generous front seats offer 42.9 inches of legroom ensuring comfort for drivers and front passengers, while 36.5 inches in the rear accommodate children or adult passengers with adequate space. The seating surfaces use durable upholstery designed to handle the wear of active family life.

Ample Cargo and Smart Storage Solutions

A cargo area of 19.9 cubic feet behind the rear seats effortlessly manages groceries, sports gear, or weekend trip luggage. Folding the rear seats expands capacity up to 54.7 cubic feet, comparable to subcompact SUV standards, enabling transport of larger items while supporting lifestyle variety across Webster Groves and Fenton.

Interior and Cargo Dimensions

Thoughtful storage compartments and straightforward controls enhance daily usability, tailored to address practical family needs.

Smart Technology Tailored to Your Lifestyle

Keeping families connected and informed while driving through the St Charles region, the 2025 Crosstrek Base delivers user-friendly infotainment options that complement active days and busy schedules.

Clear and Responsive Touchscreen Interface

Equipped with a 7-inch touchscreen embedded in the dashboard, the system supports Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, allowing intuitive smartphone integration. Though more advanced 11.6-inch screens arrive on higher trims, the Base model’s system provides reliable connectivity needed for navigation or media streaming on daily drives.

Convenience Enhancements for Smooth Journeys

While keyless entry and push-button start are standard on Premium trims and above, the Base model’s essential tech setup ensures solid operation with traditional key systems. Multiple USB ports provide ample charging options for front and rear passengers, especially appreciated during family trips between Valley Park and Richmond Heights.

Safety Features that Prioritize Family Peace of Mind
