- Subaru has revealed the US version of the new 2024 Crosstrek.
- It has a 152-hp 2.0-liter engine as standard and a 182-hp 2.5-liter engine as an option, just like the previous model. No more manual transmissions.
- Prices start at $26,290 and range up to $32,190, and they go on sale this spring.
The third generation of Subaru’s popular Crosstrek offers much of what we’ve come to expect from this facelifted version of the Impreza hatchback. The 2024 model has the carryover engine and retains the same aesthetic, but Subaru says it has a stiffer chassis, and the list of standard features grows. The only thing missing is the previous model’s manual transmission, which was dropped for the lineup, leaving the CVT as the only transmission. Thus, the base price rises from $24,870 to $26,290, although the equivalent automatic transmission base model does not see a price increase.
Trim levels include base, Premium, Sport and Limited. Like the previous Crosstrek, the lower two trims have a 152-hp 2.0-liter flat-four, while the $30,290 Sport and $32,190 Limited have a more powerful 182-hp 2.5-liter flat-four. CVT and all-wheel drive are standard across the board. Subaru says it has made improvements to the AWD system to make it quicker to respond, and the X-Mode off-road driving mode is said to offer increased capability.
The Crosstrek has a similar shape but accentuates the rugged look with more black plastic body cladding; The Sport also has yellow accents inside and out for more color contrast. 17-inch wheels are standard, with 18-inch options, and the Crosstrek has 8.7 inches of ground clearance.
A 7.0-inch touchscreen is standard equipment, but all but the base model has Subaru’s large vertically oriented 11.6-inch touchscreen. Subaru’s EyeSight driver assistance feature is standard equipment on all trims.
The Crosstrek equipped with the 2.5L engine will now be built in the US, at the Subaru plant in Indiana, while the 2.0L car will still be built in Japan. No word yet on a new version of the Crosstrek plug-in hybrid. Subaru says the new 2024 Crosstrek will begin arriving at dealerships this spring.
