Your exclusive access to Subaru Country has arrived, with the new Subaru Crosstrek All-Wheel Drive 2.0-litre petrol variant now available in New Zealand.
Priced at $43,990, the new Crosstrek AWD 2.0L positions itself as a value-packed option for fleet and corporate buyers, which can avail themselves of all the Subaru benefits that this compact SUV possesses.
A safe, feature-laden Subaru, the Crosstrek AWD 2.0L is bound to appeal to a wide range of Kiwi drivers, including adventurers, who enjoy outdoor activities and need a vehicle capable of handling various terrains. The Crosstrek's practicality, affordability, and stylish design also make it a popular choice for young adults and couples starting their journey together.
Comfort is at the fore, with the seats in the Subaru Crosstrek redeveloped with a human-centred design approach to reduce head sway, creating a more comfortable ride for every passenger. Its ample 220mm ground clearance, and easy-to-use features make it a popular choice for older drivers who prioritise comfort and accessibility.
In 2012, Subaru took the best things they had ever done and poured them into creating the small SUV category, with the launch of the Subaru XV. Building on that legacy from 2023, this compact, stylish model was reinvented and rechristened as Crosstrek and carried forward the spirit of innovation and adventure that defined the Subaru XV.
The latest edition to reach New Zealand shores is available solely with a 2.0L petrol Boxer engine. It features intuitively designed ergonomics with a centre information display with an 11.6" touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ connectivity, plus Wireless smartphone charging.
Built to tackle almost any Kiwi back road destination, thanks to its Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and 220mm ground clearance, the Crosstrek will give Subaru customers exclusive access to the most beautiful remote corners of our backyard, with all the latest driving technology and safety features you’d expect from a Subaru.
The Subaru Crosstrek offers safety without compromise; with the latest generation EyeSight® Driver Assist system clever crash avoidance technology and Driver Monitoring System. The Crosstrek also comes standard with a suite of intelligent safety features, including X Mode and a 5-star ANCAP safety rating that reflects Subaru's ongoing commitment to protecting you and your passengers on every journey.
The Crosstrek features all-eyes-on-you styling with dramatic angles, rugged cladding, black roof rails and is available in a range of unashamedly bold colours.
General Manager of Inchcape, distributor of Subaru in New Zealand, Kym Mellow says the Crosstrek 2.0L model offers huge value in a compact package.
“We envision this variant appealing to our fleet customers, who want to look after their staff with a safe, All-Wheel Drive SUV that’s going to get them where they need to be for work during the week and also able to access any adventure destinations they have planned for the weekend.”
As NZ Autocar put it after a test drive in the Crosstrek; “One other aspect is noteworthy – if you’re after one of the best handling and riding compact AWD vehicles on the market, this may well be it.”
