Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive comes standard, offering constant traction and refined stability across changing weather and road conditions. With fuel economy ratings of 24 city MPG and 28 highway MPG, this crossover remains efficient for daily driving without sacrificing off-road readiness. Capability is enhanced by an off-road ride suspension, front and rear independent suspension design, an underbody skid plate, and 17-inch black aluminum wheels wrapped in P235/60TR17 all-terrain tires. For customized power delivery, the SI-DRIVE driver-selectable drivetrain mode adapts throttle response, while Hill Descent Control maintains steady control on steep declines.

      Solid vehicle

      by Luna on 5/13/2026 6:42:32 AM

      Well built, solid vehicle. Excellent visibility. Ok acceleration with the hybrid. Handling is good too and good turning radius. I average about 30 mpg. I have not had issues with the screen freezing or being able to navigate to any apps. I have never had an issue with the parking sensors. They sometimes beep but never intrude on me actually being able to maneuver the vehicle. You can turn off the lane keep assist and the "nanny" that tells you to keep your eyes on the road. I wish it was faster and got better mpgs but overall a great vehicle and I knew what I was purchasing. Subaru has one of the best dealership customer services where I live, most other dealers here couldn't care less about you after the sale. Also one of the only dealers that don't mark up over msrp.…

      Excellent SUV

      by Doug on 4/26/2026 5:54:57 PM

      I have owned many new cars from Japanese and American brands over the years, except a Subaru. I just purchased a '26 Touring Hybrid and absolutely love this car over all others. It drives very smoothly, is quiet, and definitely has a noted feel of luxury, both inside and out. The stereo is amazing and even allows me to replay songs on the radio. I could not be happier with this purchase.…
