Notes from the dealer
Inside, the 11.6 inch multimedia display with SiriusXM and steering wheel media controls makes navigation of audio and settings intuitive, while the auto-dimming mirror with Compass and HomeLink adds daily convenience. Safety confidence comes from Blind-Spot Detection with Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Automatic Emergency Steering, Emergency Lane Keep Assist, auto high-beam headlights, LED upgrade lighting, an exterior rear camera, and multiple airbags including knee airbags & more. Cold mornings are easier with heated front seats and heated side mirrors, and comfort stays steady thanks to dual-zone automatic climate control and a power driver seat. Everyday utility is covered with a panoramic power moonroof, a power rear gate for hands-free loading, split-folding rear seats, and 17 inch alloy wheels.
Clean CARFAX. The odometer shows 8,563 miles, reflecting careful prior use without claims about being low miles for its age.

by Raymond Shipley on 9/10/2026 3:42:03 PM

Solid vehicle
by Luna on 5/13/2026 6:42:32 AM
Well built, solid vehicle. Excellent visibility. Ok acceleration with the hybrid. Handling is good too and good turning radius. I average about 30 mpg. I have not had issues with the screen freezing or being able to navigate to any apps. I have never had an issue with the parking sensors. They sometimes beep but never intrude on me actually being able to maneuver the vehicle. You can turn off the lane keep assist and the "nanny" that tells you to keep your eyes on the road. I wish it was faster and got better mpgs but overall a great vehicle and I knew what I was purchasing. Subaru has one of the best dealership customer services where I live, most other dealers here couldn't care less about you after the sale. Also one of the only dealers that don't mark up over msrp. - 5.0
Excellent SUV
by Doug on 4/26/2026 5:54:57 PM
I have owned many new cars from Japanese and American brands over the years, except a Subaru. I just purchased a '26 Touring Hybrid and absolutely love this car over all others. It drives very smoothly, is quiet, and definitely has a noted feel of luxury, both inside and out. The stereo is amazing and even allows me to replay songs on the radio. I could not be happier with this purchase.
