It's amazing what a suspension lift, some body cladding and new wheels can do for a car. Those changes are essentially the differences between the Subaru Crosstrek and the hatchback variant of the Subaru Impreza, yet they manage to make the Crosstrek an appealing choice in an entirely new segment.

For those seeking an affordable, fuel-efficient vehicle for outdoorsy adventures, the Crosstrek is a smart choice. It has the same 8.7 inches of ground clearance as Subaru's other crossovers, which is more than what virtually every other compact SUV on the market offers.
