Dude, the steering responsive headlights are awesome. They're so good that when you don't have them anymore, you really miss them. They just work so well they kinda fall out of mind.
If the headlights are left on AUTO setting, there will be welcome lighting at night when pressing the unlock button on the keyfob. It will be headlights and taillights. If equipped with exterior auto dimming mirrors, the approach lights will come on when you come near the car along with the interior lights.
other drivers keep high beam flashing me in this car cause the normal headlights are so bright lol. After finishing the video OMG it happened to you too
This is a great sedan for hitting the roads. Thanks for this video, Mike! Subaru has really made some awesome improvements in their cars this time around! 😃👏 Edit: Sorry, I mistook an Impreza for an SUV.
The hatch lights are lacking. There is an optional interior LED light kit. Hopefully it includes the hatch light. There's an optional auto dimming rear view mirror with compass and homelink and outside mirrors with those lights that cover the ground outside. I heard that even if you can turn off the auto start/stop on the center display, you have to keep doing it everytime you start the engine. Just like the Honda Civic. But Sport, or S mode does not disable it. You can also disable the adaptive mode on the headlights on the center dysplay, but not sure if that also defaults to on when you shut off the engine.
3 main gripes I have about this car: wish they gave this the brz engine/auto trans, or at least give that RS trim a turbo. The infotainment is a bothersome, slow tablet following a trend I wish didn't exist. Lastly, I would've liked leather seating option as it's easier to keep clean and smell-free. I still like this car because I have fond memories with my current 2013 Sport Limited impreza, and the current gen body looks good, but I'm heavily considering a Civic ST hatchback instead. Better infotainment, leather seating, pulls better off the line, better mpg, all for a trade-off of awd, which isn't really needed unless I live in the northern side of the midwest or go offroading more than campgrounds.
I almost completely agree with you, you lost me at leather seating… imo when the sun is blazing I prefer my fabric seats and same in the winter, I don’t want to feel like I’m sitting in a block of ice. But everything else is spot on!
@@X_BrokenxAK_X Honestly true, I just prefer it as an option available to people who want it. I've been fine with leather seats where I live in NC before the "extremes" aren't as hot or cold to become unbearable. (That and my current vehicle has heated/ventilated seats.) If it were like AZ/TX, I'd totally stick to fabric.
@@ryaiariot yeah I get where you’re coming from, the only thing I regret is not getting the sunroof option :( I didn’t know about it until a couple days later :( now I’m stuck with a sunroof less car
@X_BrokenxAK_X I wouldn't be too regretful, I've heard and seen some bad stories concerning sunroofs (the ones that are powered and can open) about parts breaking or seals getting water leaks. That being said, sunroofs are still nice, and I'm glad I went with a VW GTI trim that has it.

I been wanting a really good video of how this car does in the night. I love to drive

Sounds like the headlights need to be adjusted like this vehicle did. Low beams should not be shining in the eyes of other drivers.
My rs has approach lights. Gotta buy the packages!!
I believe there is an option to approach lights but it is an upgrade

It's not an SUV!
@@2lovebeer Sorry about the mistake. Thx for the heads up.

HOw do you turn on the illumination on the steering wheel on the 2022?
My Crosstrek lights appear to have little dots on the top of the light stream is that normal?
The 2024 Crosstrek might be pretty similar?
Not bad
deserve the price ?

Approach lights only work in auto

I like how the civic sedan looks but the rear end of the hatchback is so ugly to me. Looks like the head of a bloated caterpillar.

Impreza is a bit plain for me
