MISSISSAUGA, ON, July 9, 2018 /CNW/ - Subaru Canada, Inc. (SCI) today announced pricing on the award-winning 2019 Crosstrek, which goes on sale across Canada this month.

A key driver of the brand's record-setting sales pace, the second-generation Crosstrek combines outstanding levels of value, comfort and safety in a rugged-looking package.
