What it costs to fuel

Over five years that is about $11,167 in fuel alone before maintenance, insurance and depreciation — which is why the running cost, not just the price, decides what a car really costs.

Relative to an average new vehicle, the most efficient Crosstrek configuration saves about $4,500 in fuel over five years; less efficient versions spend more.

For context, the average combined economy of small sport utility vehicle 4wd in this dataset is about 24 MPG. The Crosstrek sits roughly 6 MPG above that mark at its midpoint, making it more efficient than average for its EPA class.
