Subaru of America reveals the pricing for the 2017 Crosstrek line and the models will arrive at retailers in November, this year.

It is one of the most fuel-efficient all-wheel-drive crossover utility vehicles in America offering 33 mpg highway on Lineartronic CVT models.
All Crosstrek models include the 2.0-liter Subaru BOXER engine producing 148 hp at 6,200 rpm and 145 lb.-ft. of peak torque at 4,200 rpm. A 103.7-in wheelbase yields impressive interior roominess in the Subaru Crosstrek, including 35.4 inches of rear seat legroom.

Subaru's Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) continuously and smoothly adapts to performance demand by keeping the engine in its most efficient operating range.
A 6-speed manual mode with steering wheel paddle shifters allows the driver to control the transmission via six pre-set ratios. CVT is optional on the 2.0i Premium and standard on Limited. The 2.0i base model comes exclusively with a 5-speed manual transmission.
