Specs at a Glance
The 2023 Subaru Crosstrek is a great vehicle for drivers looking for an efficient, reliable car with just enough power to get around town. It's also a great option for those who want an SUV-like feel but don't need the extra space of a larger vehicle. But what are the differences between the base and premium trim levels?
Performance
The 2023 Subaru Crosstrek Base trim level is equipped with a 2.0L 4-cylinder horizontally opposed SUBARU BOXER® engine that produces 152 horsepower and 145 lb.-ft of torque. The engine is mated to a continuously variable transmission with an 8-speed manual shift mode, allowing you to choose how you want to drive. Both models also come standard with Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive for optimal grip in all types of conditions. The Premium trim level also has the same engine with the same output, with additional features such as an X-Mode® for smooth all-terrain drive.
Appearance
The 2023 Subaru Crosstrek Base and Premium trims feature the same bold exterior styling, including an angular design, muscular lines, and distinctive wheel arches. However, the Premium trim adds to this by offering exclusive elements, including dual-tone exterior color options and power-folding side mirrors with integrated turn signals. Additionally, the Premium trim level offers a power sliding moonroof for those wanting a little bit more natural light in their ride.
Features
While both trims come standard with features such as Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ integration as well as Vehicle Dynamics Control (VDC), there are some notable differences between them when it comes to amenities. For instance, the Base trim offers a 6.5" infotainment system while the Premium offers an 8" touchscreen display with navigation capability. The premium trim level also adds 4G LTE Wi-Fi, leather upholstery, auto-on/off headlights, and standard fog lights. Both trims also come equipped with Blind Spot Detection/Rear Cross Traffic Alerts, Push Button Start/Stop, leather seating surfaces, and heated front seats.
Whether you choose the base model or opt for the upgraded premium trim level, you can rest assured that you'll get a reliable vehicle perfect for tackling any road conditions or terrain that may come your way in 2023. With its responsive performance capabilities and an array of interior features, the Subaru Crosstrek will ensure your drive is one to remember.
