superb ride quality the cross Trek is unique in that it offers all these capabilities in a package that is both competitively priced and and compact the 2.0 L 4 cylinder engine of the new Subaru cross Trek produces 152 horsepower despite its seeming strength it isn't very fast it takes 10.1 seconds to accelerate from 0 to 60 MPH but the cross Trek's fuel economy really shines coming in at an astounding 29 MP gallon which puts it in the lead among all-wheel drive non-hybrid SUVs one drawback is that when pushed aggressively the engine can become audibly loud thankfully Subaru offers an option in the form of the 2.5 L engine which not only makes less noise but also requires less effort to operate making for a more comfortable ride the cross Trek is still impressive inside even on lengthy trips the front seats are cozy and supportive and the back seats provide supportive legs and strategically positioned armrests for a comfortable ride for all passengers the majority of the
