What’s New in the 2027 Subaru Crosstrek

August 13th, 2026 by

If you’re shopping for a new Subaru Crosstrek, the 2027 model year brings a familiar formula with some important updates. The 2027 Subaru Crosstrek continues to offer standard Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, generous ground clearance, standard EyeSight Driver Assist Technology, and a choice of gas and hybrid powertrains.

Even better for shoppers watching their budget, the 2027 Subaru Crosstrek starts at $26,995 MSRP, the same starting MSRP as the previous model year.

So, what’s new for the 2027 Crosstrek? Which trim is right for you? How does the Crosstrek Hybrid work?

Here’s what shoppers should know before visiting us to explore the new Subaru Crosstrek.

What’s New for the 2027 Subaru Crosstrek?

The 2027 Crosstrek doesn’t represent a complete redesign, but Subaru has made several changes to the lineup.

The biggest changes include:

  • Starting MSRP remains $26,995
  • The entry-level Crosstrek receives an uprated 2.5-liter SUBARU BOXER engine
  • The gas-only Crosstrek Sport has been discontinued
  • The Crosstrek Sport Hybrid takes its place in the lineup
  • New paint colors are available, including Sapphire Blue Pearl on hybrid models
  • Tidepool Teal Pearl replaces Alpine Green
  • Ignition Red replaces Pure Red and Lithium Red Pearl on the Limited Hybrid
  • A power moonroof is now standard on the Limited Hybrid
  • Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive remains standard across the lineup

The result is a Crosstrek lineup that continues to focus on what Subaru shoppers tend to prioritize: all-weather capability, safety, versatility, and value, while adding new features and customization options.

2027 Subaru Crosstrek vs. 2026 Subaru Crosstrek

One of the biggest questions for shoppers is whether the 2027 Crosstrek is significantly different from the 2026 model.

For most shoppers, the answer is evolution rather than revolution.

The starting MSRP stays at $26,995, so Subaru hasn’t raised the base price despite the changes for the new model year.

The biggest lineup change is the removal of the gas-only Sport trim. In its place is the Sport Hybrid, giving shoppers another way to get a more electrified Crosstrek powertrain.

The 2027 model also brings updates to available colors and equipment. For example, the Limited Hybrid receives a standard power moonroof, while new hybrid-exclusive paint choices give those models a more distinctive appearance.

If you’re wondering which Crosstrek would be better for you, our team at Diehl Subaru can help you compare current inventory, pricing, available features, and offers.

2027 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid: What You Need to Know

One of the biggest reasons to consider the 2027 Crosstrek is the availability of Subaru’s next-generation hybrid powertrain.

The Crosstrek Sport Hybrid and Crosstrek Limited Hybrid combine a 2.5-liter SUBARU BOXER engine with electric motors in a series-parallel hybrid system.

Together, the system produces 194 horsepower and delivers an EPA-estimated 598 miles of range on a single tank of fuel.

Since it’s a hybrid vehicle, you won’t need to plug the Crosstrek Hybrid into a charger like a battery-electric vehicle.

For shoppers searching for a Subaru Crosstrek EV, the Crosstrek Hybrid may be worth considering if you’re interested in electrified driving but still want the convenience of gasoline-powered fueling.

2027 Subaru Crosstrek Sport Hybrid

It includes:

  • Yellow contrast stitching
  • 10-way power driver’s seat
  • Wireless smartphone charger
  • Power moonroof
  • Leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob

For shoppers who want a more efficient Crosstrek without moving to a fully electric vehicle, the Sport Hybrid could be one of the most interesting choices in the 2027 lineup.

2027 Subaru Crosstrek Limited Hybrid

Starting MSRP: $35,995

  • 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster

  • Orange contrast stitching
  • 10-speaker Harman Kardon audio system
  • 18-inch alloy wheels
  • Standard power moonroof

The Limited Hybrid also gets exclusive color choices, including Sapphire Blue Pearl, while Sand Dune Pearl and Citron Yellow Pearl are available as premium paint options on hybrid models.

2027 Subaru Crosstrek Safety Features

Safety is one of the major reasons shoppers consider Subaru, and the 2027 Crosstrek comes standard with Subaru EyeSight Driver Assist Technology across the lineup.

Depending on trim and equipment, EyeSight and related driver-assistance technology can include:

  • Pre-Collision Braking
  • Lane Departure Warning
  • Lane Keep Assist
  • Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control
  • Lane Centering
  • Blind-Spot Detection
  • Rear Cross-Traffic Alert
  • Automatic Emergency Steering

The availability of individual features varies by trim.

How Much Cargo Space Does the 2027 Subaru Crosstrek Have?

The Crosstrek is designed to be compact enough for everyday driving while still providing useful cargo space.

The 2027 Crosstrek seats up to five passengers and offers up to 19.9 cubic feet of cargo capacity behind the rear seats.

Fold the rear seats down and the Crosstrek provides more than 50 cubic feet of cargo space.

That makes it a practical option for everything from groceries and commuting to camping gear, luggage, sports equipment, and weekend adventures.

How Much Ground Clearance Does the 2027 Crosstrek Have?

The standard 2027 Crosstrek provides 8.7 inches of ground clearance.
