Subaru Is Launching an All-New Entry Level Model in the Crosstrek

The Crosstrek is now in the Philippines. Motor Image Pilipinas, the exclusive distributor of Subaru vehicles in the Philippines just announced the arrival of Subaru’s all-new compact SUV, touted as the entry level model. 

The Crosstrek is targeted towards a young family and is ideal as a daily driver for commuting to work and weekend roadtrips, including outdoor activities and even a little light trailing. It sports a stylish and dynamic design and is packed with safety features including the enhanced EyeSight 4.0.

While the all-new model carries a new and sleek design, it retains its Subaru DNA, which appeals to owners who have a sense of adventure and who look for value-for-money cars with added performance, sure-footedness and balance. One of the Crostrek’s most unique features is that the boxer engine pushes the crankshaft sideways instead of up and down like conventional engines, similar to a boxing fighter punching the fists sideways. The car’s Symmetrical All-Wheel-Drive (SAWD) platform gives the Crosstrek a lower center of gravity that offers a much better handling characteristic and feel. This combination results in unbeatable traction and outstanding control that no doubt helped Subaru rank first in owner satisfaction based on the American Consumer Satisfaction Index.

Subaru also updated its advanced safety technology in the Crosstrek as part of Subaru’s four core technologies with over 100 safety features as a standard. Safety features such as Autonomous Emergency Steering (AES), Lane Departure Prevention (LDP), and Lane Centering Function (LCF) have also been added fulfilling ADAS Level 2 standards.

The Subaru Crosstrek is packaged to meet the demands of digital natives with an enhanced EyeSight 4.0 Driver Assist Technology, which features a trio of cameras that includes an additional wide angle Monocular Camera. This was the first Subaru model to have this upgrade, providing better detection of pedestrians and bicycles at low speeds.

Inside, the Crosstrek is fitted with the biggest infotainment touch screen in its line-up to date, while the new ergonomic front seats are designed to provide supreme support and maximum comfort.

The Crosstrek comes in three brand new colors: Oasis Blue, Offshore Blue Metallic, and Sun Blaze Pearl and will be available at the suggested retail prices: Crosstrek 2.0 iL EyeSight at P1.998 million, and Crosstrek 2.0 iS EyeSight at P2.018 million.
