An unreliable compact crossover SUV
Initially, I had positive impressions of the Subaru XV. But after driving it for three months, I found the CVT transmission to be quirky. It has a few positive features like good fuel efficiency and appealing exterior design, but it also disappoints in a few departments. The CVT feels less engaging or disconnected compared to manual or traditional automatic transmissions. There is also occasional chink in its refinement, which is really annoying. The lack of a diesel option may also make it an unappealing option for a few buyers.
