Is the Subaru Crosstrek a good car?
Yes — the Subaru Crosstrek is a strong used-car pick if you want a practical compact crossover with all-weather confidence and a straightforward character. The all-generations owner rating is 4.64/5 across every model year in the data.
Owners consistently praise the Crosstrek for its solid build quality, comfort, handling, fuel efficiency, and standard all-wheel drive. Many also value its safety features and easygoing daily-driving character, which help make it a dependable choice for commuting and weekend trips.
Expert reviews rate the 2024 and 2021 models among the highest across all years.
The main trade-offs across recent expert-tested years centre on base-engine performance, CVT noise, and interior materials that feel less polished than some rivals. Even so, the Crosstrek’s mix of utility, traction, and efficiency keeps it appealing for shoppers who want a small SUV that is easy to live with.
29.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
Are Subaru Crosstrek models reliable?
Owners and experts consistently point to the Crosstrek’s solid build quality, practical design, and dependable all-wheel-drive character. Across the model years in the data, it earns praise for being easy to live with, comfortable, and well suited to daily use in changing weather.
- Owners rate the Subaru Crosstrek between 4.0 and 5.0 out of 5 stars across all model years in the data.
For used buyers, the long-term ownership picture looks reassuring because the Crosstrek’s core formula stays simple and its owner feedback remains strong across the years shown.
What should I look for when buying a used Subaru Crosstrek?
Key things to evaluate:
- Safety package: Subaru EyeSight driver assist technology, including automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assist, and adaptive cruise control.
- Infotainment: 11.6-inch Subaru Starlink touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto connectivity.
Which Subaru Crosstrek trim should I buy?
The 2024 Subaru Crosstrek offers these trims:
- Convenience: The entry trim brings the Crosstrek’s core all-weather formula, including standard all-wheel drive, 22 centimetres of ground clearance, roof rails, and the 11.6-inch touchscreen on the upper trim walk.
- Touring: This trim adds more equipment while keeping the Crosstrek’s practical, value-focused character; it suits buyers who want a well-rounded daily driver with extra convenience features.
- Onyx: A strong choice if you want the more powerful 2.5-litre engine, the dual-function X-Mode system, and the wireless charger; it stands out as a compelling value step-up.
- Limited: This trim adds the 10-speaker Harman Kardon audio system and the most upscale equipment in the lineup, making it the best fit if you want the most features short of Wilderness.
- Wilderness: The off-road-focused trim adds 23.5 centimetres of ground clearance, a ladder-style roof rack, unique exterior design elements, StarTex synthetic leather, and all-weather floormats for buyers who want the most rugged setup.
What Subaru Crosstrek do most buyers choose?

Most Crosstrek model years show meaningful year-over-year price declines, which can work in your favour if you are shopping used. The newer years are falling too, but by smaller amounts than many older ones, so recent models still command stronger prices. The pattern suggests a broad softening in values rather than a single-year anomaly.
The 2025, 2018, and 2024 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
Is the Subaru Crosstrek safe?
- 2024: 9/10
- 2021: 8/10
Subaru EyeSight driver assist technology is standard equipment on the 2024 model.
For the safest used buy, the 2024 model posts the highest confirmed score of 9/10.
Should I buy a used Subaru Crosstrek now or wait for the next model?
Buy now if:
- Price trend: The 2025 model is at −3.43% versus a year ago, and the 2024 model is at −9.16%.
- Deal availability: The 2025 model has 30.1% good and great deals, and the 2024 model has 27.7%.
- Sweet-spot year: The 2025 model has the most listings at a current average price of $33,800 CAD. The Subaru Crosstrek offers standard all-wheel drive, generous ground clearance, and a rugged, practical character that suits Canadian winters and everyday use.
Consider waiting if:
- Powertrain/efficiency: The latest model pairs a 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine with 182 horsepower and 178 pound-feet of torque, while the smaller 2.0-litre engine delivers 152 horsepower and 145 pound-feet of torque.
- Tech: The latest model brings an 11.6-inch Subaru Starlink touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay, and wireless Android Auto.
- Safety: The latest model adds a wider-angle EyeSight camera view and automatic emergency steering on cars equipped with blind-spot monitoring.
If you're buying used today, the 2025 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the latest tech and features, it may be worth waiting for the next model year's inventory to build up.

CarGurus recommends the 2022 Subaru Crosstrek

Summary

Favourably reviewed: Owners rated the 2022 Subaru Crosstrek 5 / 5 stars.
Why it stands out
The 2022 Subaru Crosstrek stands out as a practical small crossover that leans on simplicity rather than complexity. It uses a four-cylinder boxer engine, a manual or continuously variable transmission, and Subaru’s symmetrical all-wheel drive system. Built from a basic-transportation foundation, it trades high-tech flash for personality, generous ground clearance, protective bodywork, and pedestal-style roof rails that make it especially useful as an affordable daily driver.
For 2022, the Crosstrek sits within the second-generation model’s broader strengths: improved structural rigidity, available Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a larger cabin than the SUV it replaced, with more rear-seat legroom and up to 1,571 litres of cargo space with the rear seats folded down. The 2022 model year also benefits from the 2021 updates that added the more powerful 182 hp 2.5-litre engine to the Outdoor and Limited trims, along with StarTex artificial leather upholstery, a dual-function X-Mode traction system, and lane-centring assist when paired with adaptive cruise control. That combination makes the Crosstrek appealing to buyers who want a compact vehicle that is easy to live with, capable in poor weather, and still reasonably efficient.
Its main drawbacks are also clear. Base-engine acceleration is described as anaemic, and the CVT can bring plenty of noise and transmission droning. Even so, the Crosstrek’s reputation for reliability, safety, and fuel economy helps explain why it remains a popular choice for buyers who value all-weather confidence and everyday usefulness over outright speed or luxury.
