Subaru Crosstrek
The third generation of the popular Crosstrek has arrived. While styling has not radically changed, the chassis is 10-percent stiffer and the upgraded suspension is ideally suited for Canadian roads. The plug-in hybrid variant is no more. Engine selection includes naturally aspirated 2.0-litre and 2.5-litre units producing 152 horsepower and 182 horsepower, respectively. The manual transmission has been eliminated, too, leaving drivers with a CVT exclusively. Don’t miss the rugged new Wilderness model.
