How much does the Subaru Crosstrek cost in today's market?

Used Subaru Crosstrek prices span a wide range depending on model year. Here's what the market looks like right now:

The Subaru Crosstrek's current nationwide average price is $22,352, and its lowest point over the past year was $22,010. Recently, prices have come down for the 2023, 2024, and 2025 models, making now a good time to shop recent model years.

Is the Subaru Crosstrek a good car?

Yes — the Subaru Crosstrek is a strong used-car pick if you want a practical crossover with broad owner appeal and a clear all-weather identity. The all-generations owner rating is 4.64/5 across every model year in the data.

Expert reviews rate the 2024 and 2021 models among the highest across all years.

The main tradeoffs that show up across recent expert-tested years are modest acceleration, CVT noise in some versions, and infotainment systems that can feel less intuitive than the rest of the vehicle.

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

Across all model years, accident-free inventory is solid at 81.4% — always verify the vehicle history report.

Older model years carry meaningfully higher accident rates, so always verify the vehicle history report on pre-2021 models.

Key things to evaluate:

• Safety package: EyeSight safety system
• Infotainment: 11.6-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto
• Fuel efficiency: The EPA estimates 27 mpg in the city, 34 highway, and 29 combined for the 2.0-liter Crosstrek. Upgrade to 2.5 liters, and you can expect 26 city, 33 highway, and 29 combined. Figures fall a bit short in the Crosstrek Wilderness, but not terribly so: 25 city, 29 highway, 27 combined.

Which Subaru Crosstrek trim should I buy?

The 2024 Subaru Crosstrek offers these trims:

• Base: The entry trim brings 17-inch alloy wheels, 8.7 inches of ground clearance, and the Crosstrek’s standard all-wheel-drive character in a simple, practical setup.
• Premium: This trim adds the larger 2.5-liter engine, standard roof rails, and the 11.6-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto, making it the best-value choice for many shoppers.
• Sport: This trim adds the 2.5-liter engine, paddle shifters, the 11.6-inch touchscreen, wireless smartphone integration, and a wireless charging pad.
• Limited: This trim adds the 2.5-liter engine, paddle shifters, the 11.6-inch touchscreen, wireless smartphone integration, and a wireless charging pad.

What Subaru Crosstrek do most buyers choose?

The Subaru Crosstrek years with the most listings are 2025, 2024, and 2023.

These higher-volume years tend to be the most popular used picks because they give you the broadest selection of trims, prices, and equipment levels. They also sit close enough to the newest model years to keep the Crosstrek’s core appeal intact while offering more used-market value.

What is the Subaru Crosstrek's resale value?

Most Crosstrek model years are moving lower year over year, which is good news if you’re shopping used and want more room to negotiate. The declines are fairly consistent across the lineup, with newer years still showing meaningful drops. A few older model years are changing more slowly, which suggests they have been holding closer to their current price points.

The 2014, 2018, and 2020 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.

Is the Subaru Crosstrek safe?

• 2024: 9/10
• 2021: 8/10
• 2018: 9/10
• 2016: 8/10

EyeSight safety system

For the safest used buy, the 2018 and 2024 models both post the highest confirmed score of 9/10.

Should I buy a used Subaru Crosstrek now or wait for the next model?

Buy now if:

• Price trend: The 2025 model is at −4.98% versus a year ago, and the 2024 model is at −5.08%.
• Deal availability: The 2025 model has 35.9% good and great deals, and the 2024 model has 36.8%.
• Sweet-spot year: The 2025 model has the most listings at a current average price of $28,668. The Subaru Crosstrek offers a practical, easy-to-live-with character that makes it a strong fit for everyday driving and weekend use.

Consider waiting if:

• Powertrain/efficiency: The 2.5-liter flat four-cylinder engine that's been available on the Sport and Limited trim returns, delivering 182 horsepower and 178 pound-feet of torque. That same base engine is now standard on the Wilderness trim, too.
• Tech: The big infotainment system is standard on all but the Base trim. It includes wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto, and a wireless charging pad is available as an option across the lineup, standard on the Sport and Limited trims.
• Safety: EyeSight employs a wider-angle lens to give it a larger view of the road and surroundings ahead, and it also includes automatic emergency steering on cars equipped with blind-spot monitoring.
• Starting price: Pricing starts at $26,220 for the Base trim level, including a $1,225 destination fee.

If you're buying used today, the 2025 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the latest tech and features, it may be worth waiting for the next model year's inventory to build up.
