90 MPGe^{[1] EPA-estimated MPG equivalent on a full battery charge. Actual mileage may vary.} with Subaru StarDrive Technology

The Crosstrek Hybrid uses Subaru StarDrive Technology to combine the efficiency of a plug-in electric vehicle for city commuting with the long-range capability of a SUBARU BOXER gasoline engine for road trips without limits. The gas engine charges the electric battery even if you can’t plug in, so there’s no worry about running out of electric power. The Crosstrek Hybrid provides up to 90 MPGe and up to 480 miles of total vehicle range^{[2] Based on EPA-estimated hwy fuel economy and a full tank of fuel. Actual mileage and range may vary.}, all with the confidence of Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive.

All of the power. All of the efficiency. All of the confidence.

Overview

Subaru StarDrive Technology is smartly designed to give you ultimate freedom. Simply drive how you want and this advanced system automatically optimizes power, torque, and fuel efficiency to deliver not only improved acceleration but up to 90 MPGe. Take on any adventure and leave worries behind.

Everyday Driving

The system will run on a combination of electric and gas power. To maximize efficiency, the Crosstrek Hybrid automatically draws power from the hybrid battery first. The battery also recharges by harnessing kinetic energy, such as when you’re coasting downhill or whenever you take your foot off the throttle. The system can also draw more power from the gas engine when you need it. It constantly works to maximize power and efficiency so you don’t have to worry about either.

All-Electric Power

The Crosstrek Hybrid will automatically drive in all-electric mode as much as possible, saving you fuel costs by achieving up to 90 MPGe while still delivering generous off-the-line power. When the weather turns, only Subaru gives you the confidence of standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive.

Battery-Saving

When you want to maintain the battery’s charge level, Battery Save Mode directs the gas engine to provide most of the power while keeping the battery level as constant as possible. This is useful when you’re taking a longer trip and plan to do more electric driving later.

Charging On The Go

The Crosstrek Hybrid battery automatically recharges while you’re on the road. When the battery gets low, the gas engine will automatically start and begin to recharge. You can also charge the battery by driving in Battery Charge Mode, which directs the gas engine to charge the battery at all times, even when the vehicle is stopped – gaining up to 33% of battery capacity in 30 minutes of driving.

Plug-In Charging

You can charge the Crosstrek Hybrid at home using the included charger or anywhere with a standard outlet. When plugged into a 120V household outlet (Level 1), the Crosstrek Hybrid can take approximately five hours to completely charge a fully depleted battery. When using a 240V outlet (Level 2), a full charge only takes approximately two hours. Most commercial charging stations use the 240V charging capability, enabling faster charge times for your Crosstrek Hybrid.

Charge on the Go at Over 46,000 Charging Stations

Wherever your Crosstrek Hybrid takes you, chances are you’ll be close to one of over 46,000 public Level 2 charging stations across the country through EVgo and EVgo roaming partners^{[3] 46,000 includes the EVgo charging network and roaming partners. Visit https://www.evgo.com/partner-roaming/.}. EVgo is the preferred charging partner of Subaru and the first public EV fast-charging network in the U.S. to be powered by 100% renewable energy.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a plug-in hybrid vehicle?

A plug-in hybrid vehicle uses both an electric motor and gas-powered engine to optimize fuel efficiency and reduce vehicle emissions. The battery is large enough to enable electric-only operation, allowing the vehicle to be powered completely by its electric engine over limited range and can be charged at home or a charging station as well as by its gas-powered engine.

How can I charge the Crosstrek Hybrid and how do I find the closest charging station?

Owners can charge their vehicle at home or anywhere there’s a 120V outlet using the included Level 1 charging cable – or at any charging station with a 240V/Level 2 charger. With the Charge Finder app, drivers are able to locate thousands of charging stations throughout the country on their STARLINK Multimedia screen.

Do I need to plug in the Hybrid before I drive it?

The Crosstrek Hybrid will run even if it’s not charged, as it can be driven with gasoline by operating on the gas-powered SUBARU BOXER engine. However, in order to maximize fuel efficiency, it’s recommended to charge the vehicle.

Do I need gas in the tank?

Yes. The Crosstrek Hybrid always requires gas as the vehicle will use the gas engine for power when certain conditions are met.

What is the expected driving range?

The Crosstrek Hybrid has a total range of up to 480 miles using both the electric- and gas-powered engines together and is capable of recharging the electric battery while driving. It can travel using only the electric motor for up to 17 miles. The Crosstrek Hybrid fuel tank holds 13.2 gallons.

How long does the Crosstrek Hybrid take to charge and how can I monitor charging status?

The time it takes to fully charge the Crosstrek Hybrid varies based on the charging option. Level 1 charging occurs when using the included 120V charging cable and can take approximately five hours to fully charge. Level 2 charging happens when using a 240V charger and can fill the battery in around two hours. Charging status can be monitored remotely through the MySubaru® app.

Is a charging cable included with the vehicle and where can I purchase additional chargers?

A Level 1 charging cable comes standard with the Crosstrek Hybrid. You can purchase additional Level 1 charging cables at your local authorized Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid retailer. Level 2 chargers for use at home can be purchased from a third-party provider. Level 2 charging stations should be installed by a professional licensed electrician.

What type of charger do I need to charge the Crosstrek Hybrid?

The Crosstrek Hybrid can be charged using a Level 1 (120V) or Level 2 (240V) charger. The vehicle cannot be charged using a DC charger or Tesla® Supercharger.

How long is the battery designed to last?

The battery is designed to last the life of the vehicle.

Can the Crosstrek Hybrid drive off-road?

Yes. The Crosstrek Hybrid is fully capable of driving in off-road conditions with its standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive. Consult your owner’s manual for more details.
