Inspires joy in any gear.

5-Speed Manual Transmission + Viscous Centre Differential AWD
Geared for exciting response and control, the 5-speed manual transmission enables you to define your own driving style. It features the Hill Holder System to help you
avoid rolling when starting on a hill. The gearbox is paired with an AWD system utilizing a viscous limited-slip centre differential (LSD). Whenever the balance of traction
changes, the LSD instantaneously redistributes the torque to the front and rear wheels as needed.

Lineartronic® CVT + Active Torque Split AWD
The Subaru XV Crosstrek achieves inspiring levels of response and efficiency with Lineartronic® CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission). This unique transmission
dramatically maximizes fuel efficiency by keeping the engine in its optimal rev range, and preserving momentum that’s often lost during a gear shift. And thanks to its
compact and lightweight configuration, it ensures a quick response and engaging performance. Models equipped with the Lineartronic® CVT provide more control with
sporty manual mode and steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters, giving you quick access to higher revs and greater engine power. In addition, the Subaru XV Crosstrek
responds to changing driving conditions by adjusting the front and rear wheel torque distribution in real time.
