Read our review of the 2021 Subaru Crosstrek. Pricing goes from $23,795 to $34,495, and most trims are standard with Subaru’s well-done EyeSight camera-based safety system. The Crosstrek emphasizes comfort and fuel economy over sportiness, but it’s an easy vehicle to live with. If you like shifting your own gears, the base 152-hp motor comes with a six-speed stick-shift – one of the few crossovers you can still get that way. Generous ground clearance makes it almost unbeatable in deep snow, and it’s also capable in light off-roading situations.įor 2021, Subaru sweetened the Crosstrek’s appeal with a new 2.5L engine (182 hp) that corrects the underwhelming performance that was one of its few flaws. The Crosstrek benefits from Subaru’s long AWD experience.
As a result, it wears its car-based heart on its sleeve more than most small utilities, and yet we think it’s better-looking than the Impreza. The Subaru Crosstrek is one of the original subcompact crossovers, having first appeared in 2013 as an extension of the Impreza line. Pricing ranges from $24,550 (GX FWD) to $36,250 (GT AWD Turbo). The CX-30 is the enthusiast’s choice among small crossovers: if you like the firm ride, you’ll probably love the way this little utility handles. Nothing else in the segment offers as much variety under the hood: there’s a base 155-hp 2.0L four-cylinder a 2.5L with 186 hp for mid- and top-level trims and an optional 2.5L turbo (250 hp) that lends the CX-30 performance to match pricier luxury CUVs. Practicality-wise, this is a big improvement on the tiny (and similarly named) CX-3, putting Mazda in the meat of the market for little CUVs even though it’s smaller inside than some competitors. It’s based on the Mazda3 hatchback, so it shares that car’s driver-focused feel and near-luxury interior quality. Introduced in 2020, the CX-30 is Mazda’s second entry in the subcompact CUV class.
EARLY 2000S MAZDA CROSSOVER WITH 3RD ROW SEATING FULL
EX Premium ($30,695) gets a full suite of safety and high-tech kit, and the sporty SX Turbo comes in at $32,695, boasting an upgraded stereo and a head-up display. Seltos LX pricing starts at $23,095 with front-wheel drive (FWD) and the CVT, and all-wheel drive (AWD) adds $2,000 to that base trim. While the Turbo is quick and has sharper handling, we think the base powertrain feels better sorted overall. In most trims, performance is modest from a 146-hp 2.0L four-cylinder engine if you want more power, choose the top SX Turbo trim, powered by a 175-hp 1.6L turbo motor that comes with a dual-clutch automatic. The handsome Seltos is Kia’s first subcompact crossover model, and it’s a good illustration of why this South Korean company is on a roll: it’s a good value it has useful space in a well-done cabin and it’s pleasant to drive, with accurate steering and an automatic continuously variable transmission ( CVT) so good you won’t notice it’s there.
