2015 Subaru XV Crosstrek

comfortable

FANTASTIC gas mileage, easy and  COMFORTABLE to drive.

The car is very slow, not very comfortable.

I love the style and the handling, the interior design and comfort.

Great car that gives you a very comfortable drive for a smaller SUV.

It rides smoother than I thought and is more comfortable than my 2012 C250 Luxury.

but far less roomy and comfortable compared the Forester.

but also need a comfortable, good mileage, road car.

It's sporty, fun to drive, very comfortable, high quality, not over loaded with electronics (simple systems to operate), and the engine/all wheel drive system can't be matched by any other manufacturer.

mileage

Very good vehicle for gas mileage, snow, light off roading , parking, reliability.

but it gets it done with great gas mileage!

Has good gas millage and rides really smooth.

From the gas mileage to Subaru's AWD, you really can't go wrong with this car.

perfect car for all seasons and good mileage to boot.

It handles so well in traffic and on the highway, it has good clearance (I live on a gravel road that isn't always plowed in the winter), gets around very well in snow, has more space than it looks like, and gets fantastic gas mileage.

I wanted a smaller vehicle with good mileage, and comfort.

fuel

This is 2nd XVTrek first was 2013 orange, big improvement from 2013, love always been able to find on any lot, drives great, fuel efficient,  love the push

Great handling, surprisingly good and improving fuel economy, excellent braking and more-than-adequate power/acceleration in real-world situations complete this delightful package.

The AWD works great, it will go any where, fun to drive.

Surprisingly responsive ride for a smaller SUV and fun to drive.

but we love the car so far and enjoy driving it.

Style is cool and it is really fun to drive, takes turns like a champ.

Good pick up for such a small engine, stylish and fun to drive.

Or going on the snow it so much fun go for long trip   Subaru is the one I love

It's a stick shift and it's very fun to drive.

turn-handling

I found the Crosstrek to drive surprisingly quiet, road noise was isolated, and handling quick.

The car handles great on the winding back roads.

So far I've found the Crosstrek to have a comfortable, quiet ride and above average handling for a vehicle with fairly high ground clearance.

Wonderful handling and great performance.

noise

Highway road noise is noticible and the backup camera is lacking

I had the car a week before going on a 600 mile business trip and was very happy, except for the horrible road noise.

The road noise is pretty noticeable on the highway.

The blue tooth mic location is bad and picks up alot of the road noise that the person you are talking to will hear.

As far as cabin and road noise goes - it's not silent,

You will soon notice a bad rattle coming from the right front dash speaker.

The roof rack was convenient and the gas milage was good too.

I love this car because it gets great gas mileage while not feeling totally gutless.

With good gas mileage and good off-road ability it's a  win-win.

This is a great family vehicle, plenty of room, and great gas mileage.

We also take a lot of road trips and the gas mileage is very nice (33 mpg avg).

It gets excellent gas mileage, does great in the snow, and feels like driving a little tank!

Of all the vehicles i have owned never has one dropped the mileage so drastically using the AC.

As far as gas mileage goes, so far mine has been great,

The car is comfortable and feels solid and reliable.

It handles well, it looks sexy as all get out, it's comfortable, and it has plenty of room for anything I need to lug around.

but it's super comfortable, handles nicely, and looks great.

but comfortable and everything is easy to reach.

the whole point when purchasing a new vehicle is the comfort knowing that this, mechanical problems, are limited to none.

Subaru would be nice to offer the 2.5 Liter turbo as in the WRX STI then they would have something sporty looking and fun.

On top of all that it is an absolute pleasure to drive.

This car is fun and reliable and it looks good.

I had it for  2 months now and I enjoy driving it so much.

The Crosstrek has been a very enjoyable car so far.

I look forward to many years of safe, fun driving!

The extra clearance on the car made it fun.

interior

It has quite a bit of ground clearance, lots of interior room, and good cargo capacity.

The interior, performance and value for the car exceeds my expectations.

Could use more lumbar support otherwise the interior is great.

The interior is much nicer than you'd expect for the price, and the rear cargo area is perfect for my big dog.

The interior is nice and rugged and most everything is where my fingers expect it to be.

The leather interior is elegant yet the car is sporty.

The interior is plush: heated leather seats, leather-wrapped steering wheel, high end electronics with navigation & rear-vision camera.

room

I could take it anywhere I needed to go and had plenty of space to do all of the things I needed it for and more.

This car has lots of cargo room and is a real work horse.

I carry all sorts of tools for my job and they fit well, I keep the back seats down a lot which leaves more than enough space.

Plenty of room for our Husky and our luggage.

I test drove this car after having a Hyundai Accent hatchback and needing more room for camping gear, more ground clearance, and all wheel drive.

It gives me the space and room that I need without being too big, like a Forester.

2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek

The biggest let down is the road/wind/tire/transmission noise.

My main complaint is the road noise on the highway, navigation system is slow, and the rock hard seats.

The road noise is terrible, especially on concrete.

Put the noise and squeaks together and you have a fairly miserable experience.

A touch noisy when you're really on the gas

This car is reliable, gets great gas mileage, has plenty of power.

A necessary tradeoff for better fuel mileage.

Drives nicely, reliable, nice interior, solid gas mileage.

Sporty looks, Subaru handling, and solid gas mileage make this vehicle an excellent choice for dependable,  well-made transportation.

Loved the design, the handling & gas mileage.

It has a rare combination of AWD and exceptional fuel mileage that is unmatched on the market.

It's small enough to fit well in my garage, big enough to haul anything I need it to haul, sits high enough to clear most back road dips and bumps, and is comfortable enough to drive for hours, and has phenomenal gas mileage for an AWD vehicle!

It’s comfortable, reliable (AWD IS A MUST HAVE UP HERE IN THE NORTH EAST), mileage is also great, we only fill up once every two weeks for pleasure driving.

Love the car, can?t go wrong with a subaru, the MPG?s, ride and handling, and comfort this baby has to offer!

Can take it for long trips with good mileage or do city driving - and fit in most parking spots a larger SUV couldn't.

After breaking my neck and back in an accident years and suffering frequent spinal fractures, I have finally found the car that is comfortable!

After driving the Ford Escape I realized how bad this car was in terms of comfort and performance.

From a comfort standpoint, sure it could have been more roomy.

The backup camera is excellent, the seats are the most comfortable I?ve ever sat in.

If you're looking for speed, get an Alfa Romeo; if you want a reliable, comfortable car, consider the XV Crosstrek.

At 6'4" I find the front quite comfortable, and the back tolerable, which is great for a car this size.

I test drove the Crosstrek and was impressed with its handling and comfort.

Great mpg, grips the road, very comfortable.

The car has virtually no body roll, tight performance handling.

High clearance and very easy to turn around.

The XV handles well in snow and poor weather, and turns on a dime.

While it is a small maneuverable car with a fantastic turning radius and easy to park, it also has loads of storage space and a hatch to make loading easy.

THE GOOD - handles great, fantastic visibility, oil filter on top and easy to service, manual shifts nice, great interior room for a small car, heated seats are nice in the winter, very nice looking car, AWD.

I love the way it handles and very easy to park.

It is a utility vehicle built for handling icy roads, and getting good fuel economy.

family

Over all my Subaru xtrac has been an exceptional vehicle for me and my whole family.

All I know is that she was a part of the family.

Our family has owned several Subarus so I'm very familiar with their practicality, especially in snow.

But plenty of space for 3 people and full luggage.

Great family ride, room for a car seat, easy access four door.. Love the Aftermarket heated seats, sunroof and toe hitch for bikes.. Added Thule roof rack to attach a cargo basket for camping.

The sub-compact SUV has been a really good car for my family needs (spouse and three dogs) with in-town and statewide travel.

There was no way I was going to let my teen son learn to drive with this car.

I took my daughter, 2 oversized pitbulls, and coolers for 1/2 beef on a road trip with no problems.

2009 Subaru Outback

tire

The tire pressure monitor system does not work and neither does the rear wiper washer fluid.

Not pleased with OEM Bridgestone Potenza tires.

But the seats are comfortable and I love seat warmer, which thankfully still work!

very comfortable for an all wheel drive car.

It provides a nice, smooth ride and comfortable, heated seats.

Its reliable, its comfortable, and I look forward to driving it every day.

Comfortable, peppy, handles well and fun to drive.

The safety features give us comfort when he is out driving by himself.

Only down checks is the inside comfort - it's overall just fine,

The AWD is great in the winter months, good gas mileage and lots of room to haul things with the rear seats folded down.

I plan on keeping this car for the long hall and increase engine life, plus added performance and increased gas mileage are benefits to  burning premium fuel.

The 120 mile checkup was performed at a dealership and the mileage is more than 2/3 highway.

I have owned now for near a year and love the way it drives in snow while still getting incredible gas mileage for what it is.

Looks great inside and out, very roomy, reliable, fairly good on gas.

I traded in my giant SUV because I was looking for better gas mileage, something fun to drive and good in the snow.

I wanted something that would be safe, reliable, have a good ride, handle well and be good on gas.

reliable

This is the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned.

The 2009 Subaru Outback is a great, reliable vehicle.

Very dependable, economical, good for my ego, AWD has proven to be necessary when I wanna play or for fishing!

ride

They are very expensive, made from synthetic rubber which is supposed to give a smoother ride.

The 3.0 has the best ride and less road noise then the 2.5 subaru.

but it is the most safe, smoothest riding, best handling car in it's class.

2008 Subaru Outback

Great dual sunroofs, AWD for all weather situations, seats are comfortable for short or day-long drives.

Very dependable car, handles well in all road conditions, AWD great for ice and snow driving, comfortable ride.

It is also a very solid comfortable sporty little wagon.

The 08' has been such a comfortable and functional car to drive.

Subaru by name allows me a comfort level for driving in the winter weather.

2008 interior style, is far more comfortable than the 2010, in my opinion, I'm hoping the later models reverted back to this if I go and test drive more.

but also a very comfortable car on the highway as well.

Zippy, comfortable, quiet, a pleasure to drive.

I love the comfort and utility of the car as well as its inclement weather and off-road prowess; Subaru AWD really is pretty amazing.

MEETS ALL MY NEEDS  ACTIVE LIFE STYLE AWD GOES EVERYWHERE GREAT WINDOW VIEW
AMPLE INTERIOR SPACE  WITH FOLD DOWN BACK SEATS  GREAT HANDLING  DURABLE INTERIOR MATERIAL ADDED TOW BAR

I felt like the Subaru's 4 wheel drive might give me better performance during the occasional trips from the SF Bay Area into the winter weather of the Sierras, and it had a better turning radius which is good for the narrow roads in our town.

Mine has the 2.5L 4-cylinder, and while not a candidate for drag racing, it's definitely quicker than other reviews had led me to expect, and it handles extremely well for a car with such high ground clearance.

Four lane highways or logging roads - it will handle them all!

Wagon handles beautifully, just parallel-parked it in tight, city parking spot perfectly on first attempt.

This car is incredible in the snow, my driveway is an incline with an "S" curve, did not lost traction and just
phenomenal for whatever mother nature can mustere,

traded in my old trusty 97tacoma for a used 08 outback, handles good seems solid and a pure pleasure to drive and as for durability and longevity well see how it measures up with my old warrior.

However, the Outback handles better than the CRV and offers better visibility behind the wheel.

The turning radius and "point and go" handling is confidence inspiring as is the ground clearance of the AWD.

I get great gas mileage and have gone to California last year

The power is reliable and also has good gas mileage.

Highway mileage has been fabulous (about 30 mpg),

Those numbers are hand calculated , the cars computer is about 1.5 mpg optimistic.

I love everything about it-Ground clearance, interior space ,AWD trans.,gas mileage.

Both cars get almost identical gas mileage, about 22.5 MPG, more city than highway.

Very reliable, never have had any mechanical issues with the car.

I expect that this car will last a very long time and be very reliable.

I would enthusiastically recommend this vehicle to anyone who needs a reliable, reasonably fun vehicle for family trips, outdoor activities, snowy terrain or highway driving.

I would recommend it to anyone who needs a reliable, reasonably fun vehicle for family trips or outdoor activities.

I was considering a Volvo V70 too, which seemed a little roomier, and just as safe and reliable.

I had the recalls done, fuel consumption is okay, better than a v6.

but then you're in for a potential maintenance nightmare and a lifetime of premium fuel.

Fuel economy is better than on my 2005 wagon, and the subtle changes to the exterior change it from acceptable to "wow" in appearance.

If I want to take it easy on a longer drive or in traffic and conserve gas, flip it to I and I can rest at ease knowing my car is doing its best to conserve energy.

2007 Subaru Impreza

handling is nice (drifting in the dirt is the best) best choice in my life.

The sound, the handling, and the joy of driving this 2007 base model Impreza sedan is definitely a diamond in the rough for little cost of entry.

It's very reliable, handles great and has more power than a lot of cars nowadays under $20,000.

It lets you use the full power of the car some 170hp and the
huging in the turns just great.

With it's symmetrical all wheel drive this car hugs corners and is able to maintain any weather conditions as well as make you the fastest car off the stop line.

The vehicle handles snowy driveways like a champ and is comfortable during my 2.5 hour road trips.

LOL I really do, great handling and performance.

The Impreza is a great value for an AWD vehicle, quick and handles great.

snow/ice

Rain shine snow mud wind rain DOES NOT MATTER ,I will be there 5 stars and a cherry on top.

Snow , rain, wind , we have a lot of it , and this little car has stood up to all of it.

Absolutely outstanding in the snow, drove in some very extreme weather, rain and snow many times.

Great car in terms of reliability and it is an absolute beast in the snow.

The car in snow is better than the two jeeps I owned.

The Impreza provides amazing handling as well as traction whether it be water, snow, dirt or street this car really performs and surpasses many others.

This car is great for snow, stability and is rated to pull 2,000lbs.

Perfect car to have if you wanna have a fun project.

These make great family cars and are fun to drive.

but still has enough power to enjoy the ride, mine currently has 112,000 miles and is running strong never giving me no major problems at all

Owning this car has made every drive an enjoyable one.

It's so much fun to drive, and has alot of "pep".

Just an all around "fun" sporty littke car.
