Subaru UK revealed prices and specs of the new XV compact crossover for the old country, and it starts at £21,295 for entry level 1.6i S.
The XV builds on good reputation of Subaru’s SUVs and crossovers, namely Legacy Spec B and the Forester, in the British market, and offers a robust, practical, safe, and value-for-money package.
The car is powered by three versions of the EuroV-compliant Boxer engines in 1.6 and 2.0-litre petrol, and 2.0-litre diesel guises. The 1.6-litre and 2.0-litre petrol engines develop 114ps and 150ps respectively, while the 2.0-litre diesel produces 147ps and 350Nm. All models come with Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, and a choice of either a five and six-speed manual or a six-speed CVT automatic (petrol only).
The most popular version in UK, Subaru reckons, is 2.0 diesel which offers fuel economy of 50.4mpg on the combined cycle, while emitting 146g/km of CO2. It is pretty slow though, and takes 9.3 seconds to reach 60mph.
