How much does the 2018 Subaru Crosstrek cost?

Prices have softened 4.37% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 1,911 listings available, which suggests you should have a reasonable number of options to compare.

Is the 2018 Subaru Crosstrek a good car?

Generally — the 2018 Subaru Crosstrek earns a 4.2/5 user rating and a 7.3/10 expert rating, which points to a well-liked used crossover with broad appeal. Owners consistently praise its quality, safety features, and smooth driving experience, and the expert review highlights its durable, practical character and real-world versatility. That fits the Crosstrek’s use case well if you want a compact crossover that feels solid, useful, and capable rather than flashy. 33.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals, so there is some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2018 Subaru Crosstrek reliable?

Owners rate it 4.2/5, a solid signal of long-term satisfaction.

User feedback points to quality, safety features, and a smooth driving experience, and it also suggests the Crosstrek feels solid and dependable in everyday use. The expert review reinforces that impression by describing it as durable and practical, with a composed feel that suits long-term ownership. The main ownership risk for used buyers is that some examples may have seen harder use, so condition and maintenance history matter.

What should I look for when buying a used 2018 Subaru Crosstrek?

At 64.9% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if you are considering a higher-mileage example or one with visible wear. Focus on body condition, signs of prior repair, and whether the car has been used in ways that match its rugged image. It is also worth checking that the features you want are actually present, since equipment varies by trim.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The Base trim comes with 17-inch alloy wheels, integrated roof rails, manual seats, power windows, a 60/40 split-fold rear bench, and the 6.5-inch StarLink infotainment system, while the Premium adds fog lights, heated front seats, a windshield-wiper deicer, heated side mirrors, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, cloth seats with orange stitching, auto on/off headlights, and a six-speaker stereo. The Limited adds leather seats, automatic climate control, an 8-inch StarLink screen, 18-inch alloy wheels, keyless entry with push-button start, and LED headlights that turn with the steering wheel.
• Powertrain: The 2.0-liter horizontally opposed four-cylinder makes 152 horsepower and 145 pound-feet of torque, and it is paired with either a 6-speed manual or a CVT. The manual is standard on the Base and Premium, while the CVT is standard on the Limited and improves fuel economy.
• Safety package: EyeSight is the named safety suite, and it includes forward-collision avoidance, lane-departure warning, adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and sway warning. Automatic high beams, blind-spot detection with rear cross-traffic alert, and reverse automatic braking are also available, and some of those features are optional rather than standard on lower trims.
• Infotainment: The Base and Premium use a 6.5-inch touchscreen, while the Limited gets an 8-inch screen. The system supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and it is designed with shortcut-friendly menus for easier daily use.
• Fuel efficiency: With the manual transmission, fuel economy is 23 mpg city, 29 highway, and 25 combined. With the CVT, it improves to 29 city, 33 highway, and 29 combined.

Which 2018 Subaru Crosstrek trim should I buy?

The 2018 Subaru Crosstrek is offered in 3 trim levels: Base, Premium, and Limited.

Here's the short version:

• Base: This is the simplest way into the Crosstrek, and it gives you the core rugged look, roof rails, and the 6.5-inch StarLink system. It makes sense if you want the lowest entry price and are comfortable with a more basic cabin.
• Premium: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds useful comfort and convenience upgrades like heated front seats, fog lights, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and a better stereo without jumping all the way to the top of the range.
• Limited: This is the trim to choose if you want the most polished Crosstrek, with leather seats, automatic climate control, the larger 8-inch screen, keyless entry with push-button start, and LED headlights that turn with the steering wheel.

EyeSight is available on the Crosstrek, and some safety features remain optional on lower trims.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2018 Subaru Crosstrek?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile listings.

• Deal availability: 33.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 1,911 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 4.37% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 64.9% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $15,475, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2018 Subaru Crosstrek's resale value?

The current average of $15,611 sits slightly below last year's $16,326.

That softer pricing suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can help you buy at a more favorable entry point today. For a future seller, that also means resale value will depend heavily on condition, mileage, and equipment level rather than just model-year desirability. Well-kept examples with the right features should remain easier to move than rougher ones, especially because the Crosstrek has a practical reputation that many used buyers still want.

Vehicles with solid owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.2/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2018 Subaru Crosstrek safe?

The 2018 Subaru Crosstrek earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

It comes standard with a full array of front and side impact airbags, a reversing camera, tire pressure monitoring, LATCH child-seat anchors, and vehicle dynamics control with traction control. EyeSight is the named driver-assistance suite, and it adds forward-collision avoidance, lane-departure warning, adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and sway warning. Automatic high beams, blind-spot detection with rear cross-traffic alert, and reverse automatic braking are also available, though some of those features are not standard on lower trims.

Should I buy a 2018 Subaru Crosstrek or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2018 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2018 if:

• 33.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 64.9% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 4.37% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.2/5 — a solid satisfaction signal.
• The 2018 model is the first full redesign for the Crosstrek, and the expert review emphasizes its durable, versatile, and practical character.

The bottom line: The 2018 Crosstrek is a strong choice if you want the redesigned model-year experience, a solid ownership reputation, and a market that has become a bit more buyer-friendly. If you are especially price-sensitive, you may want to compare nearby years as well, but the 2018 stands out as a balanced pick for shoppers who value capability, safety, and everyday usefulness.

How does the 2018 Subaru Crosstrek compare to the 2018 Honda HR-V?

Our experts score the 2018 Subaru Crosstrek 7.3/10 and the 2018 Honda HR-V 6.7/10.

The Crosstrek brings the stronger overall expert score, more listings, and a higher share of good or great deals, while the HR-V has a lower average used price. The Crosstrek also stands out for its rugged character, standard all-wheel drive, and stronger safety and technology emphasis, while the HR-V’s advantage is mainly in fuel economy and a lower entry price. If you want the more capable-feeling crossover, the Crosstrek is the better fit; if your priority is lower purchase cost and efficiency, the HR-V is worth a look.
