Thanks for reviewing the cargo space! As a commercial photographer, that’s one of the first things I need to know!

Great review Justin, and I agree with the Crosstrek - we bought a 2024 to replace our 2011 Imprezza! This video deserves so many views, you really do cover off the important stuff, and I think the only reviewer to also report on the headlight performance. Thank you!

I bought the Crosstrek exactly like that one…Onyx trim in Sapphire blue….just a great ride.

ONLY reason why I would not get a Crosstrek is that I don't need AWD 12 months/year in New Jersey. I'm not a fan of their infotainment setup, but that's a minor thing. If I do go with a 2024/25 Kona with AWD (Limited trim), their HTRAC AWD is an on-demand system, which is better for when you don't need AWD all the time. In addition, I'm also considering the Kona EV, as it depends on final cost, with both U.S. Federal and NJ State tax credits off the MSRP when leasing. Oh, and that Kona rear cargo cover? There are nubs (is that what they're called?) behind the rear seats to allow you to slide the cargo cover down and not have to stow it outside the vehicle! Oh, and the Kona includes a spare tire!!

Great review Justin! Commenting on the things that are significant. Well done video!

I drive long distances frequently. Did the Kona or the Crosstrek have better lane centering?

[frankfrankenstein]

Subaru for sure! Symmetrical AWD is the best in the business!👍

Cx30 would of been a good fit here..love my cx3 !.

[Joeybz]

I have a question.. what are the safety ratings between the two?

[jonathanalvizo]

$1.50 for gas where are those prices at lol?

35500 CAD = 26100 USD, best Crosstrek same price than simple ordinary Kona. (sorry for my English)
