2024 Subaru Crosstrek Wilderness: Off-Road Adventure SUV Review

Today, we dive into the world of the 2024 Subaru Crosstrek Wilderness, a rugged off-road beast that takes the already adventurous Crosstrek to new heights - literally. With a massive 6-inch lift, this bad boy boasts more ground clearance than some serious off-roaders like the Ford Bronco Sport Badlands and Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. It's like a hatchback on steroids, ready to tackle any terrain with its skid plates, Yokohama Geolandar all-terrain tires, and a roof rack that can handle up to 700 lbs - perfect for rooftop camping under the stars.

But it's not just about looks and ground clearance - the Crosstrek Wilderness means business. Inside, you'll find water-resistant seats, rubber floor mats, and unique Wilderness branding that screams adventure. The infotainment system is a mixed bag, with a large vertical screen that integrates climate controls but lacks advanced camera technology that could take it to the next level. However, Subaru keeps things simple with physical buttons for essential functions like temperature control and heated seats, a nod to practicality in the midst of all this ruggedness.

Moving to the back seats, you'll be pleasantly surprised by the roominess, making it a viable option for family outings. The cargo area is spacious, with cup holders and ample storage space for all your gear. At a starting price of around $33,000, the Crosstrek Wilderness is not for the faint of heart - but for those who crave adventure and off-road thrills, it's a worthy companion. So buckle up, gearheads, because the Subaru Crosstrek Wilderness is here to take you on the off-road journey of a lifetime.
