I wasn't even aware that Subaru had a Crosstrek hybrid! And this seems to be the reason why... A sad 3 mpg boost in town. Highway? The exact same rating as the automatic.
Wow... so not impressive. And with the lowest rated 5 speed manual trouncing both the auto and hybrid in real world mpg. Not a ton of reason to get the hybrid eh?
So, lets hear about the fancy new plugin version.

While this thing looks every bit a Subaru, even if you pop the hood to take a look at the 2.0-liter boxer engine up front, the 2019 Crosstrek Hybrid borrows its PHEV technology from Toyota – more fruit of the partnership that bore the Scion FR-S and the BRZ. It has the same 8.8-kWh lithium-ion battery pack as the Prius Prime, but in the bigger, heavier Subaru it's only good for a modest 17 miles of all-electric range.
