Subaru has entered its first Philippine International Motor Show, debuting the all-new Crosstrek e-Boxer to the local market. The hybrid Crosstrek launches as the second electrified offering in the brand’s local lineup.
It will serve as a smaller sibling to the Forester e-Boxer, which was released in late 2025. As a more compact option, it uses a 2.0-liter engine and a single electric motor. These components churn out 154hp and 196Nm of torque, with power managed by Subaru’s Lineartronic CVT.
The Crosstrek is also equipped with an Active Torque Split AWD system and X-Mode settings for mud and dirt driving. Interested buyers will need to pay P1.998 million for a brand-new unit, but this crossover packs even more goodies.

Subaru EyeSight 4.0 is also onboard, with features like adaptive cruise control, pre-collision braking, and an emergency driving stop system readily available. The suite then uses a new wide-angle monocular camera for better detection.
Inside, the cabin holds an 11.6-inch infotainment display with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Drivers also get a 10W wireless charging pad, a sunroof, and up to 1,297 liters of cargo space around back.
The Crosstrek e-Boxer is offered in Citron Yellow Pearl and Sand Dune Pearl colorways. Both are equipped with rugged garnishes and accessories, including overhanding fenders, 18-inch aluminum-alloy wheels, and improved roof rails.
