Key numbers

What it costs to fuel

Across its configurations, the 2017 Crosstrek costs about $2,250 to $2,500 a year to fuel at the EPA's 15,000-mile basis, averaging roughly $2,375. Over five years that is about $11,875 in fuel alone before maintenance, insurance and depreciation — which is why the running cost, not just the price, decides what a car really costs.

For context, the average combined economy of small sport utility vehicle 4wd in this dataset is about 24 MPG. The Crosstrek sits roughly 4 MPG above that mark at its midpoint, making it more efficient than average for its EPA class.
