Positive Review
I have the new Limited and could not be happier. This is the third Crosstreck I have owned and it is by far the best. All of them were great though. The big improvements this year are styling, the front seats are more comfortable, and with lumbar support standard now on the Limited. I like the big electronic display. The car handles great in the city and on the highway. This Crosstrek has the pick-up I need too. The standard safety systems, I feel are some of the best in the industry. A great fun crossover.

Critical Review
New 2024 Crosstrek’s “wireless” Apple CarPlay constantly drops my end of phone calls. So if you don’t like constantly listening to the person on the other side of the call saying “hello are you there” then having to hang up and call back to reconnect- hold off on buying this car. The display that causes these problems costs 4k, so replacing it probably isn’t happening. Save your self a headache and don’t buy a Subaru till they fix this problem. Tons of people on message boards are having the same problem. Subaru’s Bluetooth has always been a problem, but in the past you could turn it off and connect through a usb. Now you DO NOT HAVE THAT OPTION. It’s hard to explain how pathetic it is to not be able to maintain a conversation in a brand new car. It’s a continual source of embarrassment having to explain to every person you talk to that, I’ll have to repeatedly hang up and call back. I wish I could connect with a usb again. Please fix this ridiculously annoying problem Subaru!

Everything
Uncomfortable head rest
I bought this to replace my electric car, which because I just retired and want to explore the country did not have enough range. This car is everything I wanted. My kayak rack fit on it perfectly and I am ready to take my dogs adventuring. I got the Wilderness trim so that I could tow up to 3500 pounds and am glad I did. It has plastic lining in the back and is easy to keep clean.
Style, Agility, MPG
Overall a good car. The ground clearance is awesome help the car in tough roads. Premium model has a large display, which I personally like it.

These vehicle's are pathetic
This vehicle sucks!! Always in the service department. Electrical glitches on dashboard, and the stereo screen. They replaced a wiring harness. The transmission has a hard shift second to third gear. They replaced a shifter solenoid. Thankfully it's a vehicle under warranty, but having this vehicle as my daily use it's not reliable enough.
I was looking for a reliable car for my adult child who will be more on a busy highway in 2025. After searching through severL dealerships and assisted by this site, we found a new Subaru Crosstrek in a preferred color and ended up buying it. She has been pleased with it.
I love this car!! I've been looking for the right one for a year or so. Wanted the 2.5L engine. Wanted it to be red. Got it!! I've been driving an SUV for so long now this feels like a sports car to me. Holds the road quite well, and has so many options on the big 11" screen I'm still figuring them all out a week after I picked it up. Love the big back-up camera screen. Not a lot of storage in it, but I don't really need it. My kids are all grown, my dog only rides in my old pick-up. This is just right for me, now.

Reliable, comfortable and fun
Touchscreen is slow
This is my first Subaru. I came from Lexus and I’m not disappointed. The ride is great and the car has been solid. Occasionally the touchscreen will lag. That’s one issue.
I love everything about my 2024 Red Premium Subaru ! Inside and out !!! Sharp looking car and rides so nice !
