The 2024 Subaru Crosstrek Wilderness Is Impressively Capable

CHECK OUT CARS & BIDS!

This is the new 2024 Subaru Crosstrek Wilderness and it's a surprisingly capable adventure version of the Subaru Crosstrek which, in itself, is an adventure version of the Subaru Impreza. Today I'm reviewing this new Subaru Crosstrek Wilderness and I'll show you the many quirks and features. I'm also going to get behind the wheel and show you what it's like to drive.

People are hating on Doug for reviewing “boring cars” but these are the cars people can tangibly afford and are most available. I think it’s fun to review a Ford GT, but I’ll never own one.

Doug is the type of guy to mention the mountains imprinted in the cup holders, but not the increased gear ratio that only the Wilderness version of the Crosstrek has.

The CRV and RAV 4 have more room because Subaru's equivalent is the Forester. The Crosstrek competes with the HRV and Corolla Cross.

I have the base Crosstrek and I can confirm.... It does have the trunk cup holder. This was the feature that fully sold it for me....

Doug the type of guy that brings a knee pad before he proposes to his girlfriend.

[FSAPOJake]

I like that Subaru actually gave this legitimate off-road chops rather than just making this an appearance package.

Fun Fact. Years ago Doug was in an auto accident with a crosstrek. It slammed into him.

Ever since then hes had a "theres a crosstrek" tick.

He just randomly says is, but he edits it out of his videos for obvious reasons.

It's a sad story but it's cool when he gets to actually be himself in these videos and not have to edit it out.

Doug "There's a Crosstrek" DeMuro

I have this car, 12, 000 miles on it, and it's an incredible off-road vehicle for entry folks. I took it throughout Utah and the San Rafael Swell and the rugged roads to Tuweep. Drop the tire pressure to 26 psi and you have commuter comfort while bombing down forest roads, and it outperforms long bed pickups in tight washes. It's life changing.

the bronze accents on the front and rear bumper are recovery point covers! and you open the cover using the physical key hidden inside the key fob to get to the recovery points

pretty clever

I actually really like all the plastic cladding. It makes the car look more textured and rugged in a good way in my opinion. I wish more car brands did that.

It looks like an early 2000’s gym shoe

Legend has it doug is still pointing out crossteks to this day.

[HelenFire]

I guarantee that the designer of this car was looking at a Payless Hiking boot for inspiration.

Take a shot every time Doug says “There’s a Crosstrek” during the driving section.

[pdxtim]

"There's a Crosstrek... there's a Crosstrek... there's a Crosstrek." 😂

I am in Oregon and these cars are everywhere. I didn't really notice them either until I bought a Crosstrek Wilderness this last Spring.

Doug did a pretty reasonable review despite mocking the Wilderness moniker. The cladding will turn some people off, but I find the gold accents more annoying than the cladding. Just enough to do anything about them.

This model definitely should have come with a front trail camera and rear air vents. Hopefully Subaru will correct this in future models.

I'm legit laughing out loud. "There's a Crosstrek." It's true. After we got ours in late '15 we started spotting them all over. MANY more now!

[nicholasstocker]

My Aunt bought a new Crosstrek last year. I got to drive it and it’s a really nice little car.

[jammerDNA]

I just traded in a Crosstrek Premium. I have traders’ remorse. That is an excellent car. I would definitely buy another and would highly recommend them.

Doug is the type of guy to go to a open house and talk about all the quirks and features of the dishwasher to the real estate agent
