Reliable and Capable, but lacking in Technology

The good:
- Subaru Reliability, no problems at all over 40K miles.
- Wonder control in poor weather thanks to the AWD.
- Steering has never gone out of alignment.
- Tire wear very even, still on original equipment.
The acceptable:
- Real world fuel economy is close to the sticker. I do mostly highway driving with approximately 26 mpg.
- Interior space is good. I am 60 and I have no trouble in legroom or headroom. Rear seats are ok for my size.
- Cargo room is acceptable. I very recently took a multi-day trip with myself, wife, and two year old son. Dont expect to easily fit everything if camping or hiking, youll want some external storage for that.
The bad:
- The transmission has a poor set up. First gear ratio is too high and final gear ratio (fifth) is too low.
- Tow rating is abysmal at 2,000 lbs. Thats not really enough for anything more than just some farm chores.
The awful:
- The ride is ok, but easily unsettled by a passing vehicle or by following a 18-wheeler. You must stay extremely alert at higher (65+ mph) highway speeds.
- The seat belts lock up much too easily and often stay locked longer than helpful as well. A major nuisance.
- The entertainment system is the worst part of the car. The sound quality is very poor. The hands free system is frustrating. The menus are basic AND unintuitive. Occasionally the bluetooth fails to connect completely.…
Do your research. This is the best AWD available.

I live in the mountains, lots of dirt roads, uneven ground, etc. Surface roads are very steep and twisty. This vehicle handles so well I’m amazed! I’ve owned four 4 wheel drive vehicles and they would spin the tires in tough spots that this car never struggles with. Great mileage also. On top of all that it is an absolute pleasure to drive. Can’t say enough good things.…

I bought a Subaru crosstrek Premium, which I was looking for something with all the bells and whistles. The car handles very well in rainy /snowy conditions, but the engine noise in the cabin is pretty bad. If you plan on listening to the stereo, plan on cranking it up, especially when you're on the highway, because of the loud engine noise. Interior material is decent quality, but the seats(I have leather) are not comfortable enough for someone to take a long trip. We went from Wisconsin to Colorado and found out 1/3 of the way in the trip that the seats are not made for long hauls. The engine is somewhat lack luster, especially trying to pass. I haven't had any complaints on the safety of the car. It does handle well and is very responsive. The biggest complaint I have is about 3 months after purchasing the car the paint has been chipping off the hood and fenders from small stones or small debris, constantly. The paint is paper thin! This vehicle has the worst paint job I have ever seen. I would never purchase another Subaru because of this issue.…
