Subaru XV Crosstrek 2013-2014Change

This is the best car I ever had!
It will never let you down in a crazy snowstorm or thunderstorm and it is as smooth in the summer as it is in the winter
It is a fun car with great fuel economy!

My previous 2.5RS had worn out and exchanged for brand new; same interior concept design/features, but more advanced technology from sedan to wagon. I'm snowboarder, camper, kayaking, traveler.... all fit in one XV instead of sedan.

I wish Subaru accepts diesel motor available in North American market.

I bought this car because my 2002 Mazda Tribute died (very sad). Although I downsized in terms or cargo and engine power (200hp vs now 140hp), I am still very happy with this XV. It handles the toughest snow as if there's nothing on road. No Kidding! I'm a road warrior, and having had the worst snow storm in Ontario, Canada in the last 5 yrs I've driven more than 100km in snow as high as the bumper without skidding or losing power. Where most SUVs were stuck, I plowed. Power wise, it's good, but nowhere close to a V6. Takeovers on highways are a breeze if you downshift one or two gears, but trying to drag race will be self punishiment. Cargo is good, especially if you lower the back seats down to a complete flat. Remove the head rests (front passager seat included) and you get even more cargo room.

Gas consumption is as stated, an average of 7.2l/100km. My wife gets 6.8, I get 7.4 - I like to speed. Overall, the best car I've ever driven! Hopefully they come with a v6, but still around same MPG or KML score!

The interior is good, and very nicely layed out for a sedan/crossover. Plenty of room, and taking it to NY a few times it was a very comfortable ride.

Just be wary that Subaru has problems updating their navigation system...which means that my gps has maps from 2009. Hopefully that will change in the near future....

Aside from that, unless you're looking for a V6 or a towing truck, this car is great for both city and highway commute. Pretty to look at too ;)

PS: Glacier white is best color...

I picked this car up new for my wife and used Car Cost Canada. Saved over $2000.
This has been a great little crossover vehicle with all the bells and whistles. Just love it.
It handles great and has lots of pep for a 2Ltr.
We were looking at some other Suv's but this one beat them out.

I had this car for almost 3 months now, had 0 issue with it, very comfort and accelerate is great. I had to wait for 1 month for the car after order it, it definately worth the waiting ! I haven't seem a same model on the road yet, I'm very happy the car looks sleek and I got lots compliment about my car :) The size is perfect for me, i had a highlander i feel it is too big and hard to handle
