Subaru of North Miami
The 2026 Subaru Crosstrek gives South Florida drivers two distinct approaches to the same compact-SUV formula: a conventional 180-horsepower BOXER engine or a 194-horsepower hybrid system. Both feature standard Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, standard EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology and 8.7 inches of ground clearance.
This comparison focuses on the conventional 2026 Crosstrek trims and the 2026 Crosstrek Hybrid. Crosstrek Wilderness is excluded from the figures below because it carries its own ground-clearance, fuel-economy and towing specifications.
