Introducing the 2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek, the all-new, super-stylish, compact crossover custom-built for the active lifestyle and those seeking a direct injection of fun. This sporty little number offers the everyday qualities the urban driver demands, including nimble handling to dodge errant taxicabs. Superior maneuverability to secure that final parking spot. Generous ground clearance to overcome all manner of urban obstacles. And class-leading fuel efficiency to keep you on the road and off the pump. But wait, there’s more.
There’s no room for wallflowers in the urban jungle. So the Subaru XV Crosstrek is designed to withstand all the challenges of this unique environment, including narrow lanes, overcrowded parking lots and ground-swallowing potholes. First off, it’s not too big or too small–in fact, it’s just right. The roof rails, rocker spoiler, and black wheel-arch cladding confirm that this is a decidedly rugged and sporty crossover. The rear spoiler, dark privacy glass and unique, black 17-inch alloy wheels give it a fashion-forward edge. In other words, the XV Crosstrek is the business.
In terms of impact, the interior mirrors the exterior—everything has been designed with the driver and passengers in mind. One contrast, though: Despite its compact size, the Subaru XV Crosstrek has a very spacious cabin. It’s also very well-equipped, with countless creature comforts and plenty of handy compartments for storing all sorts of personal paraphernalia. In terms of tech, your wish is this crossover’s command with numerous multimedia features.
For example, the available 6.1-inch LCD touch screen integrates a rear-vision camera, voice control, navigation, iTunes® tagging, SMS text messaging capability, video playback, subscription-based XM® Satellite Radio and XM NavTraffic service. Updated map data can be downloaded to a personal computer and then transferred into the system via secure digital (SD) card.
Armed with a slick Lineartronic® CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission), the Subaru XV Crosstrek is the most fuel efficient compact crossover in its class–rated at an estimated 8.2 L/100 km in its prime hunting ground (the city) and 6.0 L/100 km on the high sierra (highway)*. So you can just consider the XV Crosstrek the economical urban adventurer.
True to its heritage, the Subaru XV Crosstrek boasts superior handling, sporty driving dynamics and a supremely confident experience behind the wheel. The 2.0L SUBARU BOXER engine delivers impressive acceleration and refreshing efficiency. The fully independent suspension system counters with incredible stability and genuine corner-hugging capability. Fun to drive? You bet.
The Subaru XV Crosstrek comes standard with the world-renowned Subaru symmetrical full-time All-Wheel Drive system. This all-weather, all-condition, all-road system gives the XV the capability to go anywhere at any time–from the urban jungle to the real jungle. What’s more, the unusually lofty ground clearance, a full 220 mm, makes small work of big obstacles.
All show, plenty of go: The Subaru XV Crosstrek has the features needed to back up its claim as an everyday adventurer. Consider the standard roof rails, cargo cover, and cargo area hooks and tie-downs. Check out the 60/40-split flat-folding rear seats and up to 1469 L of cargo space. And do the math on this crossover’s class-leading towing capacity (1,500 lb) compared to its direct competitors.
