A new Subaru Crosstrek was introduced in 2017, based on the new Subaru Global Platform to offer enhanced performance, safety, and comfort. The fun-to-drive Crosstrek combines a bold new design with a new highly capable chassis for versatility in both off-road and city driving. The brand's core technologies featured by the model are represented by the BOXER engine, Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, and EyeSight Driver Assist Technology. All trim levels with the Lineartronic CVT (continuously variable transmission) now come standard with driver-selectable X-Mode to provide better wheel control on slippery surfaces and steep inclines.
