斯巴鲁近日在纽约车展发布了2018款Crosstrek，此前该车曾在日内瓦车展亮相，这是首次进入北美市场。该车采用全新设计，升级引擎和其他一些小的细节改进。该车动力系统仍为一台2.0升水平对置四缸引擎，功率113千瓦/152马力，而老款车功率为110千瓦/148马力。该车标配扭矩矢量全驱系统，搭配六速手动变速器。不过，绝大多数消费者会选装CVT变速器，该变速器可提供X-Mode越野模式。这款车在今年晚些时候上市时将提供入门、Premium和Limited三种版本。车厢内标配6.5英寸显示屏信息娱乐系统，可兼容苹果CarPlay和安卓Auto。更高端的Premium车型提供加热前排座椅/挡风玻璃/后视镜。Limited顶级款提供随动转向LED行驶灯，镀铬车身装饰，真皮内饰和8英寸信息娱乐系统显示屏。无论何种版本，新车都采用了车厂的模块化斯巴鲁全球平台，轴距增加1.2英寸（约合30.5毫米），车长增加0.6英寸（约合15.2毫米），离地间隙8.7英寸（约合220.98毫米）。斯巴鲁希望新车能继续在市场获得成功，仅去年一年，该车销量就达到95677辆。
2018 Subaru Crosstrek Gets More Power, Fresh Look For New York
Though we’ve seen the Crosstrek in full at the Geneva Motor Show, Subaru’s smallest SUV is making its American debut at the New York Auto Show this week. Along with an all-new design, the Crosstrek gains an updated engine, and some other minor enhancements that improve upon the already successful platform.
Under the hood is the same 2.0-liter flat four-cylinder engine found on the previous model. In this application it produces 152 horsepower (113 kilowatts) verse the 148 hp (110 kW) previously. Torque vectoring all-wheel drive comes standard, as does a six-speed manual gearbox. Most buyers will likely choose the optional CVT, though, which now comes with an off-road-oriented X-Mode.
The Crosstrek will be available in three trims when it goes on sale later in the year: base, Premium, and Limited. A 6.5-inch infotainment screen comes standard on the base model, but includes features like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Opt for the next-up Premium model, and things like heated front seats, windshield, and exterior mirrors are added. The top-spec Limited models sees the most upgrades, including steering responsive LED running lights, chrome exterior trim, leather upholstery, and an 8-inch infotainment system.
Whichever package you do decide, the Crosstrek rides on a new modular Subaru Global Platform which sees the wheelbase grow by 1.2 inches, the length increase by 0.6 inches, and ground clearance of 8.7 inches (220.98 millimeters) overall. Subaru hopes that its new Crosstrek can continue its successful run – a total of 95,677 models were sold in 2016 alone.
