Of the 2016 Subaru Crosstrek vehicles, the hybrid models seem to have it all. If you've been thinking about purchasing a new crossover for navigating the streets of Freehold, Farmingdale, or Marlboro, you certainly won't be disappointed with this new Subaru.

Here at Freehold Subaru, we've put together a review of the 2016 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid so you can decide whether this is the vehicle for you.

2016 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid Specs

Supported by a 2.0-liter Subaru BOXER four-cylinder engine, the 2016 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid delivers a powerful performance while maintaining a fluid drive. Not only will you enjoy a smooth ride, you'll also appreciate fewer trips to the gas pump thanks to EPA-estimated 30 city mpg and 34 highway mpg. The hybrid system also offers 160 horsepower at 6,000 RPM and a torque system of 163 lb-ft at 2,000 RPM.

In addition to a powerful and efficient engine, the 2016 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid passed the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety tests with flying colors: a perfect score in all five categories. It's no wonder this vehicle is as safe as can be, since it contains multiple safety features, such as advanced airbag systems, Brake Assist, and Blind Spot Detection Alert.

In-Depth Look at the Technology

Of course, the perks of the 2016 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid don't stop there, as this particular model has a lot to offer by way of integrated technologies. For convenience, the hybrid has a rear-vision camera, three-spoke steering wheel with controls for your audio system and cruise control, and an automatic climate control system, just to name a few.

The highlight of the Crosstrek Hybrid's technology is the standard STARLINK 6.2-inch multimedia audio system. Great for hands-free phone connectivity, Bluetooth controls, and limitless options for listening to music, this touchscreen device will amp up your driving experience.

Of course, there are a number of additional options you can add to the vehicle, such as a roof spoiler and all-weather mats, to further enhance this already near-perfect car.

Comfort, Style, and Convenience

Like the other versions of the Crosstrek, the hybrid has a stylish exterior and a luxurious interior. The back seats can be split or folded down to create more cargo room. Even with all of the seats in their upright position, there's ample legroom so the entire family can be comfortable in this crossover vehicle.

The front seats are heated to make you comfortable during chilly Freehold, Farmingdale, and Monroe Township winters. On the exterior, you'll find windshield wiper deicers and heated side mirrors, which are all part of the All-Weather Package, standard for any hybrid model. And with chrome trim accenting the exterior of the vehicle, you won't have to sacrifice style for convenience.
