2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek Colors

What Subaru XV Crosstrek Color Best Suits You?

Many psychologists say that the colors you favor say a lot about your personality. And vise versa; if you're unsure about your favorite color, you can determine which ones suit you by seeing the colors that best describe your personality.

We thought it'd be fun to put together a list of the Subaru XV Crosstrek colors and the personality traits that go with them, so you can either pick which color is best for you, or see why your favorite XV color happens to be your favorite after all.

Before I go on, the Subaru XV will be at Burlington Subaru on Wednesday, August 22 from 1-4 p.m.! Click to see more about the XV's features and specifications, and check out our website if you'd like to pre-order a Subaru XV or register for XV updates.

The Subaru XV Crosstrek boasts the type of precision performance that has been over 50 years in the making. It is the culmination of everything that Subaru has learned since building its very first vehicle. The Subaru XV Crosstrek combines all the best of Subaru's core technologies, including Vehicle Dynamics Control, a horizontally-opposed Boxer engine and Symmetrical All-wheel Drive. Then they added an impressive 220mm ground clearance to create a vehicle with serious SUV ability.

The Subaru XV plays host to a number of spectacular features and specifications. Like it’s siblings, the XV has symmetrical all-wheel drive, but there’s so much more. Also on the XV is a 148-hp, 2.0-liter, 4-cylinder SUBARU BOXER engine, seven airbags, 17-inch aluminum allow wheels, roof rails and fog lights. You have your choice of transmission; a five-speed manual or Lineartronic CVT with paddle shifters, both still come with the flexible cargo area that has a 65/35-split flat/folding rear seat, a waterproof cargo tray, cargo tie down hooks and a cargo area cover. All of which can get up to 33 mpg*.

The Premium Edition of the Subaru XV Crosstrek has an array of exceptional features such as a six-speaker single CD audio system, Bluetooth hands-free connectivity, Bluetooth audio streaming and USB/iPod control. Available features on the Premium XV include a voice-activated GPS navigation system, a power moonroof and an all-weather package, which has heated exterior mirrors, heated front seats and a windshield wiper de-icer.
