Subaru Teases Production XV For Geneva: Comments

Last year's Geneva Motor Show saw Subaru introduce the XV concept, giving us a preview of what to expect with the next-generation model. Today, Subaru has revealed a teaser for next-generation XV (Crosstrek to us in the states). 

Unlike some of Subaru's past attempts of taking a concept and making into a watered-down production model, the next XV looks to be very faithful to the concept's design. 

Subaru is keeping many details quiet, but we can guess some of them.

• Using the new platform that underpins the Impreza
• Power coming for a 2.0L four-cylinder and the choice of either a five-speed manual or CVT
• Less spartan interior and all new infotainment system

We'll have more details on the XV when it debuts in March.

Yawn, such a small tight cuv. I have friends that love the crosstrek and are small but for peeps over 5'8" tall forget it.  Hopefully they have fixed the interior space.

Everyone I know who has one loves it.
