What’s New in the 2023 Subaru Crosstrek?
Subaru, along with other automakers, traditionally introduces a full redesign of popular models every five or six years. The last time we saw an overhaul of the Subaru Crosstrek, the manufacturer’s funky subcompact SUV, was in 2018. According to the calendar, we’re due for a brand-new Subaru soon, but it might be another year or two before we see one. The 2023 edition of the Subaru Crosstrek is pretty similar to the Crosstrek you know and love.
Although there’s little by way of mechanical or design upgrades, there is one exciting new launch this year. Subaru added a new trim level for the 2023 Crosstrek: the Special Edition. This all-new trim borrows most of its engineering and features from the Premium trim. However, it offers distinctive styling that sets it apart. The Special Edition Crosstrek comes in Desert Khaki, a soft beige paint color that harkens to outdoorsy adventures like dirt roads, safaris, and desert hikes.
The Special Edition trim complements the Desert Khaki exterior with high-contrast black details, like door handles, mirror caps, a grille bar, and decals. It comes with 17-inch gray wheels you’d otherwise have to swing for the Sport trim to get. There are unique touches on the inside of the Special Edition Crosstrek, too, like special red and black cloth seats and attention-grabbing high-contrast stitching. An 8-inch infotainment touch screen also comes standard on the Special Edition, despite costing extra on other trims.
Other than the Special Edition trim, the 2023 Subaru Crosstrek has all the engineering and features of the 2022 Subaru Crosstrek. Expect the same adaptable, practical design and performance that’s made this small SUV a long-standing hit with drivers.

2023 Subaru Crosstrek Exterior Styling
The Subaru Crosstrek is famous for its bold and perky styling. Like many Subaru models, its body is tough and adventurous, but it looks just as at-home on busy city streets as it does whipping down dirt roads. The 2023 Subaru Crosstrek has standard exterior features like a spare tire, halogen headlights, a sporty roof spoiler, body-color door handles, and a roof rack for all your outdoor excursions.
