90 MPGe[1] with Subaru StarDrive Technology
The Crosstrek Hybrid uses Subaru StarDrive Technology to combine the efficiency of a plug-in electric vehicle for city commuting with the long-range capability of a SUBARU BOXER gasoline engine for road trips without limits. The gas engine charges the electric battery even if you can’t plug in, so there’s no worry about running out of electric power. The Crosstrek Hybrid provides up to 90 MPGe and up to 480 miles of total vehicle range[2], all with the confidence of Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive.
All of the power. All of the efficiency. All of the confidence.
Subaru StarDrive Technology is smartly designed to give you ultimate freedom. Simply drive how you want and this advanced system automatically optimizes power, torque, and fuel efficiency to deliver not only improved acceleration but up to 90 MPGe. Take on any adventure and leave worries behind.
Everyday Driving
The system will run on a combination of electric and gas power. To maximize efficiency, the Crosstrek Hybrid automatically draws power from the hybrid battery first. The battery also recharges by harnessing kinetic energy, such as when you’re coasting downhill or whenever you take your foot off the throttle. The system can also draw more power from the gas engine when you need it. It constantly works to maximize power and efficiency so you don’t have to worry about either.
All-Electric Power
The Crosstrek Hybrid will automatically drive in all-electric mode as much as possible, saving you fuel costs by achieving up to 90 MPGe while still delivering generous off-the-line power. When the weather turns, only Subaru gives you the confidence of standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive.
Battery-Saving
When you want to maintain the battery’s charge level, Battery Save Mode directs the gas engine to provide most of the power while keeping the battery level as constant as possible. This is useful when you’re taking a longer trip and plan to do more electric driving later.
Charging on the Go
The Crosstrek Hybrid battery automatically recharges while you’re on the road. When the battery gets low, the gas engine will automatically start and begin to recharge. You can also charge the battery by driving in Battery Charge Mode, which directs the gas engine to charge the battery at all times, even when the vehicle is stopped – gaining up to 33% of battery capacity in 30 minutes of driving.
A Value That Lasts
Standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive
The Crosstrek Hybrid has all the capability you’ve come to expect from a Subaru SUV, including standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive. The balanced design of Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive creates uniform stability and delivers an optimal distribution of power for maximum traction. It makes for improved handling, efficiency, and a quicker response to road conditions. The Crosstrek Hybrid can handle all kinds of weather and off-pavement adventure with 8.7 inches of ground clearance. It's a capable combination Toyota RAV4 Prime, Kia Nero PHEV, and Mini Cooper SE Countryman ALL4 can't match.[6]
Stylish, Spacious Interior
The smartly designed 2022 Crosstrek Hybrid provides a surprisingly spacious interior – with up to 100.8 cubic feet of passenger volume – in a compact SUV that remains agile and conveniently sized. That’s more passenger space than the Toyota RAV4 Prime, Mini Cooper SE Countryman ALL4, or Lexus UX Hybrid. Once inside, you’ll find a stylish, modern interior with high-contrast navy and gray leather seats with blue stitching, standard heated front seats, and an available heated steering wheel.
Standard EyeSight Driver Assist Technology
EyeSight has been found to reduce rear-end crashes with injuries by up to 85%.[9]
EyeSight monitors traffic movement, optimizes cruise control, and warns you when you’re swaying outside your lane[10]. It's one of the reasons why the Crosstrek Hybrid was named a 2021 IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK+. The automatic Pre-Collision Braking feature can apply full braking force and bring you to a complete stop in emergency situations[11]. Lane Keep Assist can even help you steer back into your lane[12]. Another way Subaru designs vehicles with your safety in mind.
