Jones Bel Air Subaru - What to Know About the 2026 Subaru Crosstrek
Adventure-ready yet easy to live with, the 2026 Subaru Crosstrek brings confident all-weather traction, smart technology, and a thoughtfully sized cabin together in one compact SUV. At Jones Bel Air Subaru, we see shoppers choose the Crosstrek for its balance of everyday comfort and weekend capability — it fits city streets, trailheads, and everything in between. For 2026, the lineup remains focused on versatility with standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, a choice of well-equipped trims, and available advanced safety and driver-assist features designed to add peace of mind on every drive.
Whether you are drawn to the rugged character of the Crosstrek Wilderness, the right-sized practicality of the core trims, or the efficient confidence of a hybrid model, this SUV earns its reputation for durability and long-term value. The Crosstrek’s low center of gravity contributes to stable handling, generous ground clearance supports light off-pavement exploring, and the flexible interior makes quick work of cargo runs, pet transport, and school drop-offs alike. Add modern connectivity and an intuitive multimedia interface, and you have a vehicle that feels ready for your daily routine and spontaneous getaways.
