2023 Subaru Crosstrek Specs & Fuel Economy
Get out and explore in the 2023 Crosstrek. Featuring 8.7 inches of ground clearance, Subaru symmetrical all-wheel drive, and active torque vectoring, this compact SUV delivers big confidence when you need it. Active torque vectoring assists you with cornering by monitoring your vehicle and applying braking power, when needed, to your front wheels. It also works with the vehicle dynamics control system to enhance steering control and handling.
Two gas-powered engine options are offered with the 2023 Subaru Crosstrek. If you choose the 2023 Crosstrek Hybrid model, enhanced efficiency is realized through the use of electric motors working with a SUBARU BOXER® engine that are optimized by Subaru StarDrive technology. Thanks to this advanced system, you can head out on a long road trip and not worry if you’re running low on electricity without a plug-in station in sight. The gas engine charges the electric battery.
The Crosstrek Sport trim adds power-optimizing, dual-function, X-MODE® traction control that features deep snow and mud drive modes to help keep you out of trouble when you’re in challenging elements.
