Subaru Crosstrek
The Crosstrek boasts a practical size and an excellent all-wheel drive system. Compared with the Impreza hatchback it’s based on, this small crossover offers a higher seating position and more room in the second row. Base models make do with a 2.0-litre engine delivering modest performance. Others benefit from a stronger and livelier 2.5-litre mill producing 182 hp and elevating the driving experience. Want to venture off-road or tow heavier loads? Consider the Crosstrek Wilderness.
