Reviews Summary

If the new Fiat 500X proves reliable and passes crash tests with top marks, this little crossover has the power to change the automaker’s course, shine its image, and crank up the profit machine. If it proves unreliable and doesn’t get a Top Safety Pick or 5-star crash-protection rating, this little crossover is likely to need big rebates to help dealers move the metal. Clearly, Fiat needs to get the 500X exactly right. The company is off to a good start.

Reviews Summary

It is hard to believe that the little Subaru Crosstrek has been with us for 11 years, but here we are, looking at the 2024 model. It has come a long way since 2013, and in its third generation, we benefit from multiple engine options, a dazzling touchscreen, upgraded safety features, and a new Wilderness trim level that increases the tough little SUV's capability off-road. And, because this is Subaru, you can bet that it comes standard with symmetrical all-wheel drive (AWD).
