Subaru has launched an updated version of the XV crossover, which will go on sale in March with prices starting from £31,665.
Design changes for the new XV are relatively minor, stretching to a redesigned front bumper, new radiator grille and tweaked fog lamp bezels. New 18-inch alloy wheels appear and a choice of two new paint finishes are added to the XV’s palette – Plasma Yellow and Horizon Blue.
Subaru has also updated the XV’s chassis with a new set of springs and dampers, as well as a new drivetrain controller featuring specific settings for snow, dirt, gravel and mud. Drivers can also now adjust the car’s engine and drivetrain characteristics using Subaru’s new SI-Drive system, which has dedicated settings for fuel efficiency and performance.
