welcome to Neonista.blogspot.com website that provides a variety of information about the latest cars in the world. and this time we will share information about the 2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek, the following information
For years, Europeans have ridiculed American buyers for their SUV addiction, but small-SUV sales are booming on the Continent right now. The new XV Crosstrek was conceived as a way for Subaru to capitalize on the trend, its tidy dimensions making it ideal for tight European roads. When U.S. dealers saw the XV, though, they loved it and convinced Subaru brass that it would be a hit with young urban families stateside. Here, it will be known as the XV Crosstrek.
Jesse James has called the Teutuls of Orange County Choppers fame “cake decorators,” alleging that their products are just flashy eye candy and not true customs. He might level the same barb at the XV’s engineers, as the model is really just a lifted Impreza hatchback with new bumpers, some fender cladding, and unique wheels. That’s the same basic formula Subaru followed to create the Impreza-based Outback Sport.
2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek Price :
Subaru has announced pricing for its new 2013 XV Crosstrek. The quasi crossover starts at $21,995 for the Premium trim, while a Limited model carries an MSRP of $24,495 (*not including a destination charge of $795). The XV Crosstrek is essentially a high water Impreza five door with a little extra cladding and ground clearance. Listed at 8.7 inches to be exact, the ground clearance is a healthy three inches greater than the standard Impreza.
The 2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek, the latest addition to the Japanese automaker’s all-wheel-drive crossover stable, starts at $22,790, including a $795 destination charge, according to Subaru.com. The XV Crosstrek is slated to arrive in showrooms in the fall. The top of the line 2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek 2.0i Limited starts at $25,290, including shipping.
2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek Interior :
The Subaru XV Crosstrek comes standard with a six-speaker stereo that features a USB port, auxiliary input and Bluetooth phone and audio connectivity. Options include a navigation system and power moonroof, while the higher Limited trim adds automatic climate control and a backup camera standard. Few reviewers have commented on the 2013 XV Crosstrek’s interior features. However, many say that its interior is basically the same as the Subaru Impreza’s. One test driver compliments the XV Crosstrek for its straightforward climate and stereo controls, while another mentions the stereo’s excellent sound quality.

2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek Exterior :
Here’s where the 2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek is a “different” Subaru. A great deal of attention was paid to the exterior design of the XV Crosstrek, and I commend Subaru on their efforts. While it’s not a complete departure from the Subaru line (as the BRZ seems to be) it’s different enough to turn heads and the right heads.
Targeted at Gen Y buyers (and those who are also considering the MINI Cooper Countryman and Nissan Juke), the XV Crosstrek is a woodsman in ubranite attire. Sleeker than an Outback and beefier than an Impreza, the XV Crosstrek strikes a pleasant balance between off roader and city dweller. It’s fancy without being impractical, and functional without being brutish. High wheel wells, a 220 mm ground clearance and practical roof rails mean this Subaru can pretty much go anywhere, and look good while it does as long as it’s not sitting on those horribly angular, flower y rims.
The 2.0i Limited adds automatic headlights, automatic climate control, leather upholstery, the rearview camera and the same six-speaker audio system found on the Premium but with the addition of a 4.3-inch LCD display. The sunroof and a navigation system (with satellite radio) are also available for the 2.0i Limited.
+. Exterior Features :
>. Symmetrical All Wheel Drive.
>. 2.0 liter DOHC SUBARU BOXER® engine.
>. 17 inch aluminum alloy wheels.
>. Raised roof rails.
>. Vehicle Dynamics Control (VDC).
>. Available Lineartronic® Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT).
2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek Engine :
Although three trim levels are available on the XV Crosstrek (Touring, Sport Package and Limited Package), the engine will remain the same throughout: the 2.0L BOXER four cylinder that produces 148 hp and 145 lb-ft of torque. Two transmissions are also available: a 5 speed manual and an updated, much improved CVT that comes with standard equipped paddle shifters on the steering wheel (thank you Subaru for that one).
Starting at $22,790 including delivery, the XV Crosstrek lets customers choose a smaller crossover experience that boasts 8.7 inces of ground clearance, which is three more than its Impreza platform donor. The car will also get a stiffer suspension, though the same 2.0 liter Boxer engine as the Impreza still sits under the hood with 148 hp and 145 lb-ft of torque.
Set to arrive on the U.S. market this fall, the car could stand to rival several larger crossovers like the Mazda CX-5. Yet the car isn’t quite a crossover, as is the case with much of the automaker’s lineup. Realistically, the car is a replacement for what the Outback used to be, though with significantly more ground clearance. For example, the third generation Outback (built from 2998 to 2003) sat 7.3 inches above the road except for the L.L. Bean package which got an extra half inch.
