1 month agoThe most efficient Crosstrek ever? Subaru's hybrid gets a bit rugged.
Even at a brief glance, the Subaru Crosstrek clearly prioritizes rugged design and personality over any semblance of aerodynamic efficiency. Subaru's best-seller also comes only in all-wheel drive, to stay true to customer expectations of all-weather confidence and the appeal of an aspirational adventure lifestyle. And yet, the latest-generation Crosstrek's new hybrid variant improves power and torque output significantly, while simultaneously resulting in the most efficient Crosstrek to date.

The system debuted in the 911 GTS T-Hybrid, which Ars recently reviewed. For that car, Porsche added a single electric turbocharger, which works like the MGU-H in a Formula 1 car.
