The 2023 Subaru Crosstrek
According to the latest Consumer Reports study, the 2023 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid is still among the best of the twelve most fuel-efficient SUVs you can buy now. CR says the 2023 Crosstrek Hybrid subcompact SUV scores well overall based on reliability, safety scores, road tests, fuel mileage, and owner satisfaction.
What is the 2023 Crosstrek Hybrid fuel mileage?
The 2023 Subaru Crosstrek hybrid gets the best fuel mileage of any Crosstrek trim level. In Consumer Reports testing, the plug-in Hybrid gets 38/45 city/highway MPGe and 42 combined MPGe.
But only some people buy the Crosstrek Hybrid because the price is much higher than the standard trim level. The standard Crosstrek is the better value and is fuel-efficient. And the Hybrid has only 17 miles of electric range.
What is the gas-powered 2023 Crosstrek fuel mileage?
You don’t have to buy the Hybrid to get good fuel efficiency. The Subaru Crosstrek uses direct injection on its new 2.5-liter four-cylinder Boxer engine and gets 27/34 city/highway mpg and 29 combined mpg.
The 2.0-liter engine gets 28/33 mpg and 30 combined mpg with the Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) automatic, contributing to better mileage. Subaru increased fuel mileage in the new 2023 Crosstrek using a four-cylinder Boxer engine with direct-injection technology.
What type of gas does the 2023 Subaru Crosstrek require?
The Crosstrek runs on regular 87-octane unleaded gasoline, so you don’t need the higher mid-grade or premium fuel to get the best city or highway mileage.
What is the 2023 Crosstrek price?
All 2023 Subaru Crosstrek trim levels get a $600 price increase, including destination and delivery fees.
The 2023 Subaru Crosstrek now comes in six trim levels for U.S. customers. The base trim is priced from $24,870, Premium ($26,020), Special Edition ($27,970), Sport ($29,220), Limited ($30,720), and Crosstrek Hybrid ($38,070). Prices include destination and delivery fees ($1,225).
Road trips can be expensive, with gas prices around $3.40 per gallon. You don’t have to sacrifice the utility and capability of an all-wheel-drive SUV to get good fuel mileage. The 2023 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid ranks among the twelve top picks by Consumer Reports. But most customers choose the standard Crosstrek trim over the Hybrid.

Has one worst interior. Has most annoying buttons on the wheel. Accelerator petal in uncomfortable position. Subaru definitely struck out on this car for longevity. Drive many new vehicles for living, so implicity is huge factor an interior.

But you can’t purchase a Crosstrek Hybrid in Pennsylvania or have it serviced there why is that? And when will it change?

You can't purchase one in WA, which is ridiculous. Apparently Subaru only sells them in states that have adopted the California emission standards. For a company that claims to be environmentally conscious this is a travesty. I currently own an outback but I'll be switching to Ford because I want to hybrid. Subaru is definitely on the wrong track here.

I live in a state where I can buy the Subaru hybrid but it’s been on back order for over two years. Yes, technically true that nobody’s buying it but not for lack of trying.
