Efficient, Capable Subaru Hybrid AWD Powertrain

With its efficient and capable all-new Subaru hybrid powertrain, the 2026 Crosstrek Hybrid gives you up to 38% better city fuel economy than conventional models, delivering even more value for your money. Your adventures can go farther, too, with a range of up to 597 miles per tank. Its next-generation Subaru series-parallel hybrid system combines a newly revised 2.5-liter SUBARU BOXER^® engine with dual electric motors and a high-capacity lithium-ion battery. The Crosstrek Hybrid smoothly switches between the gas engine and electric motors to maximize efficiency and power — whether it’s a short errand or a long road trip — and there’s no need to plug in to charge.  

The standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system in the Crosstrek Hybrid compact SUV is designed to optimize traction in rain, snow, on rough roads, or even when there’s no road at all. This reliable AWD system constantly evaluates acceleration, braking, and cornering in real time to continuously deliver power to all four wheels. If a wheel slips, power is instantaneously transferred to the wheels that have the most grip. It’s a level of all-weather, all-terrain standard capability the Honda CR-V Hybrid and Ford Escape Hybrid can’t match. And with up to 38% improved city fuel economy and up to 597 miles of driving range, the 2026 Crosstrek Hybrid compact AWD SUV delivers great all-wheel-drive gas mileage.

With its exceptionally balanced layout, Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive delivers a solid connection to the road and an engaged, responsive drive. The entire system lies along the centerline of the vehicle, balancing weight distribution between the two sides to help provide optimal performance and control.

Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive has demonstrated its durability and low maintenance over four decades of owner-tested Subaru vehicles, so you can be confident your Crosstrek Hybrid AWD SUV will keep taking you farther year after year.

Roomy, Connected, and Comfortable

The Crosstrek Hybrid is surprisingly spacious for its nimble compact SUV footprint, offering plenty of versatile space for passengers and cargo with up to 118.8 cubic feet of interior room. That’s more interior volume than the Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid. In addition to its standard digital instrument cluster, there’s a standard 11.6-inch high-resolution Subaru Multimedia System touchscreen. Standard wireless device-charging makes it even more convenient to charge and connect your smartphone and standard USB-C and USB-A ports let you connect and charge all kinds of devices. The cabin features high-quality, soft-touch materials throughout, and available StarTex^® durable upholstery adds even more long-lasting comfort. 

Right-Sized Profile with Modern Styling

The Crosstrek has always stood out with its unique blend of modern style and practical compact SUV details. That philosophy continues with the aggressive headlight design, futuristic honeycomb grille, and protective cladding on the Crosstrek Hybrid. It all rests on Hybrid-exclusive 18-inch alloy wheels with a 4-spoke kinetic spiral design.

The 2026 Crosstrek Hybrid features standard EyeSight Driver Assist Technology, which acts like an extra set of eyes on the road and, if need be, an extra foot on the brake when you drive. EyeSight includes a number of advanced active safety systems to protect you and your family on every drive. Automatic Emergency Steering can help you avoid collisions by providing automatic steering and pre-collision braking support if it determines there’s enough space to intervene.

Automatic Pre-Collision Braking helps you avoid or reduce frontal impacts by alerting you and applying full braking force in emergency situations. Pre-Collision Throttle Management can reduce the power from the engine to help minimize the possible impact force and frontal impact damage.

Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control with Lane Centering adds extra convenience and safety on every drive. Just choose the distance you want to keep from the car in front of you and it can take some of the stress out of everyday driving by helping with steering, braking, and throttle control while maintaining a safe distance ahead.
