- The Subaru Crosstrek is a subcompact crossover SUV that has been on sale since early 2012. The top-notch ride quality and unmatched off-road performance made it an excellent proposition for the segment.
A Special Edition model joins the Crosstrek family for 2023. It's based on the Premium trim and comes exclusively with Desert Khaki paint, 17-inch wheels, and dark gray exterior trim.
So let's look at ten things you need to know before buying the 2023 Subaru Crosstrek. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Just purchased the 2023 limited coming off an 03 vw Jetta vr6 and the ONLY thing I can “complain” about comparatively is it’s not quite as peppy. Handling and visibility feels very similar which I absolutely love. The fact that there are still physical buttons for most everything is great. I love the old school feel to the interior. Pretty slick overall.
I want one so bad. I drive for work 1 of 3 Subaru Foresters and Imprezas and each has over 150,000 miles. I'm hooked.
I just purchased last week. I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT IT. I purchased the Premium
Excellent review, very helpful and nicely put together, Thanks!
I have the 2021 limited and I love this car. Just went on a road trip and averaged just about 34mpg. Great overlanding capabilities and an all around fun car to drive. The lane keeping assist takes a little getting used to but the car almost drives itself.
Awesome video)
Got the 2023 sport literally last night, they sold out at almost all dealers in CA after 1 day of delivery, 3 people were at the dealership purchasing when we arrived, really popular here/. Seems like allot of power
Hi!! Very good report! I LOVE the Crosstek, a truly car, XV in Europe. Regards from Spain/Europe of my Subaru Levorg 1.6T and me.
Good to see the smaller, dedicated, infotainment system over the all encompassing ones that take out the tactile buttons and create safety hazards for the driver using a touch screen to try and adjust everything while driving. Hope they keep the option of having this smaller screen available in the upcoming years!
Nope - starting in 2024 the entire center of the dash is one ginormous screen.
I prefer the utilitarian interior on the Crosstrek over the other ones that you think are better.
MY WIFE IS VERY HAPPY WITH HER CROSSTREK SUBARU ❤2023 💃
Purchased my 2023 Subaru Crosstrek today Love it
I also just got a new 2023 Crosstrek and I also love mine.
I have a 22 sport and it's a beautiful buy. Oil changes are easy to do at home along with most maintenance. The gas mileage is great and the ride quality is awesome. Would definitely recommend to friends that want a AWD without breaking past $40k
is your wheel trim molding on sport have indents in it ? shows a lot in sun?
dents out ward !
I disagree about the Interior. Basic, Functional, and Reliable.
Was looking for the Corstrek...
i have a 2016. if they had a feature where you could lock all 4 wheels for 4WD, it would be perfect.
I can't wait for mine to come 2nd week of October......Limited edition, white......
Haha! Me too! Limited, white, 2nd week of October...hope we're not waiting on the same one. ;)
I received my built 2023 sport
Halloween of 2022. This is my third Crosstrek. I had the 2014 hybrid in the beautiful plasma green. My second one was a 2019 premium, which I bought on close out. And then my 2023.
Do you think I love my car and this model?❤️
I do some off-roading and so far so good!! Did I mention my dog also loves Subie too? Best road trip companion.
IMHO, the most important thing to know before buying a 2023 Crosstrek is that in 2024 the totally redesigned next-gen Crosstrek is coming out with several improvements at a similar price point, and they're supposed to begin arriving this spring and summer.
Too bad no more manual transmission models.
Yes, the interior is not flashy, the outside is okay, its the overall driving, handling on the street is FANTASTIC, along with the FACT its unstoppable on the STREET. I could not get stuck, and i tried everything on the street to include a seven inch sidewalk, walked ontop like a KING:) Its considered to be the top sexiest vehicle to a woman! Like a tiny dog is to attract a woman (it worked very well for me!
I bought a 22 limited recently, and I love it. The contrast stitching is gorgeous, and the biggest draw for me as well as the accelerator response, which was better than the vw taos
Yeah.....but l would have liked better selection of colors .
What the HELL with that "BABY SHIT COLOR!!!???
4:45 Highway range with the manual is still well over 400 miles, around 5 to 6 1/2 hours at interstate speed. I wonder how significant an 8-hour gas tank really is for a driver with a four-hour bladder?
I went for a test drive, but my dog wouldn't get into it.
Baldurdash notwithstanding, I'm not really looking for hard-core off-road capabilities, or blistering acceleration.
The Premium trim level equipment with Manual transmission (the ultimate millennial antitheft device and according to most reviews, quicker off the line than the CVT) looks like a fine value.
Why they don't offer the sport/2.5l engine with a manual transmission is frustrating. Very intrigued by the crosstrek with the 2.5l but no manual is a no go. It's similar to how many manufacturers don't offer a AWD option in manual. Truly disappointing.
I have a 2022 Crosstrek Sport and I love it, the bigger engine makes a difference in giving it enough power. I'm surprised the infotainment is one of the high points, as it is one of the low points for me. It feels old and outdated, but it is functional for the most part. I do like the fact that everything isnt controlled through the screen, the car has a lot of physical buttons.
Hi, what are you getting for MPG?
@@bettysmith4527 I have a lead foot. Started at 26, after 1000 miles it has gone to 28mpg. Definitely has gotten better as the engine has gotten broken in.
I have the 23' premium crosstrek and it's at 26 avg MPG for me at 700 miles on the engine. I must add that I live up in the hills and am constantly making trips down to town and what-not. I'd imagine in a flat area you would be getting most likely the advertised 33 MPG or maybe more, but who knows the car tells me I'm getting 99 MPG while going 80 down the hill to town. Guess it all depends on how much you wanna make it go vroom.
Also the Manual function on s mode definitely beats the proposed 60mph in 10 secs claim. Got it up to 60 in like 5-6 secs.
@@Thanir Thank you, any major issues?
@@bettysmith4527 I've only had it for a couple of months and haven't put a lot of miles on it, but no issues at all. I live up in snow country so looking forward to see how well it does with the extra clearance (I am coming from an older WRX.)
Subaru running since 07 head gasket change at a hundred and some thousand miles it been pretty reliable.😊
Needed an STI Manual version
Great looking … good awd system but 182 hp ? Guess it was made to crawl off road
I just got a crosstrek
Is the 2023 Crosstrek having paint problems? Cheap paint peeling paint.
I test-drove this car recently, and the only reason I wouldn't buy it is that it doesn't come with lumbar support in any trim even though it costs 30K plus. Why reviewers fail to mention an increasing lack of this feature on non-base trims escapes me. I disagree about acceleration and responsivity. Just a slight touch of the gas pedal produces a satisfying response, which to me is a hallmark of an exciting driver. There are too many cars in this segment where you have to push the pedal almost all the way to the floor to get it going.
The thumbnail has a misspelling-FYI
The guy sounded like he was saying Subaru CrossTrick. LOL
Nice thumbnail.
You know the thumbnail for this video says "CORSSTREK" right?
There is wrong information about the mpg and 0-60 mph just fyi
This would be on my short list, but want something I can keep a long time. That CVT isn't it. Subaru used to offer manual transmissions throughout their lineup, but they are killing them all off. If I can't get a manual, I will pass. The fact that they force buyers to go with the small engine to get the manual has irritated me enough that I will probably go elsewhere. I would consider a WRX, but don't want to suffer the reliability hit of the turbo and pay extra for it. I also wanted the extra ground clearance of the Crosstrek. It's too bad. They used to make cars I wanted. Now they just miss the mark.
The CVT is a way better transmission than any stick or juice box
@robertstephens6775 if you don't mind that it is fragile, can't be fixed if it breaks, is difficult to check or change the fluid and will cost more to replace than the value of the car when it dies somewhere short of 150k miles, I guess you can call it good if you want. Personally, I don't like the slow response to throttle input and monotone drone from the engine during acceleration either. I will definitely be trading ours in before 100K. Subarus are supposed to be 250k cars. CVT failures will total most of them long before that.
Dancia duster 2900 lbs 60 mpg
4x4 go anywhere
I own 22 Crosstrek I dont like it. Thiking about changing it. Just very small and uncomfortable vehicle. Gas miles is very good.
To bad there is hold on all 2023 Subys, just cancelled my order.
I had to drive far to find one in California, but most places sold out the next day after delivery.
how much are they going for?
I call BS on the mpg for the manual. I got the 23 with 2.0L + MT and I'm getting 30-34 mpg. 31 average.
Also is it me or does the narrator for this vid sound like Ray Hurd who plays Gazef Stronoff from Overlord anime, English dub?
iktr i got 37mpg at 65mph on flat ground with the ac off
It sounds like a robot reading. Definitely not a real person.
I have the 23 Crosstrek premium unlimited 2.0 I haven't had no problems keeping up on hyw any were your not buying a mustang etc there's allot of bullshitvon these reviews
Top notch cross trek $34,250 with no power passenger seat, only car with a hand pull park brake. I think this car is highly over priced and over rated little car.
Can’t lie, I see the manual handbrake/carseat as a huge bonus. Less things to go wrong and still works if the battery dies.
Don't buy. Boxer engine is a ticking time bomb. I have a 2015. It needed an engine replacement after 71k because of a head gasket issue. Subaru quality sucks now. Boxer engines has not changed and will keep having head gasket issue. I used to be a denier of this problem. It's true.
I have a 2015 Forster Premium… 82 K on it love it!!! Never had any problems and just got me 22 Outback Base model with all the extras… since June I have put 7274 K on it … love it!! And this is my 4th Subie… Only God knows how you drive and maintain your vehicle

@@iliacmartinez2320 Crossttrek is my 2nd. First one is a Forester that we kept for almost 15 years. Outback, Forester, and WRX are the only ones with some quality. The rest has questionable build quality. I still drive a 2004 Sienna with almost 160k, so we take good care of our vehicles. Driven in city and suburban streets.
@@iliacmartinez2320 vato I’m a 30 year master mechanic and I fix Subaru’s all day 6 days a week. Pinche boxer engines burn oil. Even brand new right off of the lot. Subaru is good if you keep your cars about 100k miles, but after that they start to have lots of problems.
@@Jose_hernandez970 I'm on a second rear wheel bearing change in less than 80k in my 2015 Crosstrek, plus a Control Arms and ball joint. That was about $1200 plut the $450 for the bearing.
Was this a Google translate thing? Some things this narrator says makes no sense and sentence structure is horrible at times. Sounds like a bot. 🤷♂️🤦♂️🙄
It definitely is
One more thing to be aware of--- the Transitive Property of Jesus!

It is probably outrageously overpriced
Msrp in Hawaii $26,000 2023. I bought mine in 2018 $29k after markup.
No it;s not, got the 2023 sport with sunroof, and many great options for under 33k
@@MrEmiko29 USD?
Let’s stop the nonsense here. The only reason people “love” this car is because it’s cheap and it’s the only new car they could afford. I had the unfortunate job of driving my friends 2021 2.5 up a 10% grade with four of us in the car during a hiking outing. It was pathetic. The thing was reviving so high I thought it was going to explode and don’t get me started on the cvt. The whole car is a cheap mess. Good lord. All these weird people claiming they love this car is mental illness personified. I was personally horrified to find out it had a boxer engine that wasn’t in a 911. Just awful. Hell the car even weighs 3200 lbs! Auto companies really need to bring back the inline 5.
I can’t love this comment enough. I’m a master technician and Subaru folks are a different breed of people.
@@Jose_hernandez970
Im glad i read your comments. They hold water due to the fact you're not emotionally attached. I've been on the fence but you're the 2nd mechanic saying the same thing surrounded by reviews done by people with shiny, new purchases. I think I'll keep my uncomfortable Tacoma for now
@Thomas Smith maybe you are from Hyundai or KIA 😂😂😂
@@TuDoNgonLuan007and you from delusional ville.
Crosstrek not corsstrek
first thing you should know is only angry lesbians drive subaru's and no self respecting man would be seen in one
Lol.
I've got a '21 Limited ...along with a manual c6 GS Vette convertible & a TRD Supercharged 4 Runner Limited.
But I'd take a couple of Lesbo's also.
Dear C. Roo-I don’t fit the profile, 74 year old lady driving my second Subaru + love it. I’m married to a hot old dude who loves his beat up Subaru-he says he’ll give me up before he gives up the Subaru. My son, age 38 & owns a media company, swapped his 2021 Mercedes for a 2023 Subaru. He and his girlfriend do a lot of off-roading.+ boondock in the mountains on weekends. My point is that a real man is one who appreciates how fine a Subaru is, from what’s under the hood to its sleek body to it’s awesome performance. But if you’re happy with your Ford, have fun.
We've found the incel in the comments 😅
💯
I love my 2018 CT Subaru. It's has a smoother ride compared to most SCUVs. Almost 5yrs now, I have no problem with it except fill up gas tank and keep going~
