A new chapter for Subaru’s small SUV commences today, with the order books officially opening for the all-new, next-generation Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive (AWD) Subaru Crosstrek – the next iteration of Subaru XV.
Australian pricing and specification for Subaru’s all-new small SUV have been confirmed – ahead of its anticipated launch.
The Symmetrical AWD Subaru Crosstrek range comprises five variants, including three petrol – AWD 2.0L, AWD 2.0R and AWD 2.0S – and two hybrid, AWD Hybrid L and AWD Hybrid S.
Owners of the all-new Subaru Crosstrek will enjoy a small yet highly capable SUV that features a multitude of the latest infotainment technologies and intuitive safety systems, creating an enjoyable ride for all occupants no matter the destination.
Subaru has well and truly made its presence known with the all-new Subaru Crosstrek, presenting a much bolder exterior design with dynamic styling which conveys reliability as a crossover SUV whilst also resembling the vehicle’s fun and versatile personality.
Subaru Australia’s Managing Director, Blair Read, said: “We welcome Crosstrek to the Subaru Australia family as we officially commence orders.
“The Subaru Crosstrek is a small SUV with real SUV credentials; it can zip through urban streets throughout the week and take you off-the-beaten track on the weekend. This is not a jacked up small car; this is a small SUV with real capability.
“Underpinned by the Subaru Global Platform, drivability and comfort have improved for this new generation model, offering owners an engaging yet refined driving experience.
“It’s capable of tackling almost any driving adventure you please with utter confidence, comfort and convenience.”
The vehicle cockpit has received an array of welcomed enhancements to increase user-friendliness, including, for the first time in a Subaru vehicle, the ultimate convenience of wireless smartphone Qi charging†. Additional new features include but are not limited to:
Every Subaru Crosstrek variant will feature smart key and push-start ignition, LED headlights (dusk-sensing), roof rails, power-folding door mirrors. Crosstrek AWD 2.0R, AWD 2.0S and AWD Hybrid S comprise LED Daytime Running Lights (DRL) whilst AWD 2.0L and AWD Hybrid L will feature a bulb type DRL.
Continuing Subaru’s commitment to safety, a core component of the brand’s DNA, the all-new Subaru Crosstrek contains the latest generation EyeSight® Driver Assist system with an improved stereo camera and featuring the addition of a new Wide-Angle Monocular Camera. This also adds:
Furthermore, the addition of a Driver Monitoring System – Driver Focus (DMS)§ offers another layer of safety, as well as convenience, to help reduce the chance of accidents. Whilst the inclusion of 9 SRS# airbags mean the all-new Subaru Crosstrek is well-equipped in the event of a collision.
As previously revealed, all-new Subaru Crosstrek petrol variants will be powered by a sporty yet refined direct injection 2.0-litre Boxer engine and a Lineartronic® transmission with 8-speed paddle shift manual mode. Moreover, Hybrid variants feature a robust Subaru e-Boxer with 7-speed manual mode.
The feeling of confidence is further underpinned by the Subaru Global Platform which benefits from a refined inner frame that increases cabin strength and delivers a quieter and more comfortable ride.
The all-new Subaru Crosstrek is available now for pre-order online or through your local Subaru Retailer.
