I think what I was referring to is the matter of styling. The Impreza doesn’t sell yet the Crosstrek does although they are essentially the same car. It’s the perceived ruggedness of the Crosstrek which appeals to people whether or not they need that little bit more of ground clearance on the Crosstrek. Subaru is seemingly aware of this need to keep reinforcing these ruggedness styling cues as evidenced by the upcoming Wilderness editions of the Outback and the Forester. The Ascent styling simply didn’t hit the mark styling-wise and wasn’t unique enough to attract buyers as the Telluride’s unique styling did for example.
