For the 2027 model year, Subaru's popular Crosstrek series will maintain its pricing, making it an attractive option for consumers. Despite some adjustments to its trim offerings, the core value proposition of this subcompact SUV remains intact. Notably, the gas-only Sport variant will no longer be available, but the more efficient hybrid models are set to continue, receiving some enhanced features.
The Crosstrek, a significant contributor to Subaru's sales figures, second only to the Forester, will start at ,470 for its base model. The off-road-capable Wilderness trim will be priced from ,270, and the premium Limited Hybrid model will begin at ,470. These consistent price points reflect Subaru's strategy to offer competitive value in the evolving SUV market.
While the gas-powered Crosstrek Sport, previously priced at ,075, is being phased out, enthusiasts can still opt for the hybrid powertrain. This more potent 197-horsepower hybrid variant, starting at ,470, offers an array of upgrades over the former Sport trim. For an additional ,395, buyers will benefit from interior enhancements such as cloth seats with distinctive yellow accent stitching, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a shift knob, and elegant faux carbon-fiber interior trim. Furthermore, the hybrid Sport includes a fully digital gauge cluster, a 10-way power-adjustable driver's seat, a retractable cargo cover, and a wireless charging pad, providing a more refined and technologically advanced driving experience.
Beyond the powertrain adjustments, minor aesthetic and comfort enhancements are being introduced across the 2027 Crosstrek range. The Limited Hybrid trim will now feature a power sunroof as standard, adding to its appeal. In terms of exterior colors, Subaru is expanding its palette with the introduction of Sapphire Blue Pearl, exclusively for hybrid models. Additionally, Ignition Red will replace Pure Red and Lithium Red Pearl (for hybrids), and Tidepool Teal Pearl will supersede Alpine Green across all models. These updates aim to refresh the Crosstrek's appearance and offer more choices to discerning buyers. The updated 2027 Subaru Crosstrek is anticipated to arrive at dealerships in the autumn.
The 2027 Subaru Crosstrek lineup sees strategic changes that enhance its hybrid offerings and maintain pricing stability. While the traditional gas-powered Sport trim is discontinued, the hybrid variants receive notable upgrades, including a standard power sunroof on the Limited Hybrid and refreshed paint options. These adjustments underscore Subaru's commitment to delivering value and adapting to market preferences, ensuring the Crosstrek remains a strong contender in the compact SUV segment.
