- Eyesight 2.0 works very well day or night, rain or shine. (Unless heavy downpour)
- Low CG, very stable driving in and out of bends
- 2litre CVT comfortably ascending Genting Highlands 4up and cruising on the NSH without much effort
- Only downside is the small boot space

Review
This is a good basic all round vehicle that is functional across a wide range of uses (family transportation, Sports Utility, etc.).
The overall construction is very basic, with aesthetic and visible issues being the focus of the company. Costs saves have clearly been pushed within the hidden, unseen construction of the vehicle. However, the unseen quality quickly becomes apparent after a few months of ownership and will include the issues highlighted below. The 'tinny', cheap steel work used will be very apparent in the first rain storm.
I liked this car at the start of ownership. It did everything i needed it to do. But the quality and poor systems performance (A/C) and exceptionally poor support from the Subaru agents have led me to rate this vehicle as a a high risk buy. Maybe, if you get one that has no intrinsic faults in the AC (leaks) I might still be able to live with the other poor quality issues.

What I like
Good all round features including:
- Large interior cabin for a compact SUV
- great transportation space with seats down should you need the utility option
- an ok sized boot space with seats up
- ability to use the roof rack as all SUV's should have
- very nice leather trim fit out and interior styling

What I do not like
Tinny construction. Can hear every raindrop impact - not a great thing in a tropical country. And the tinny, light steel used is very prone to ding dangs!
The base sound system is the cheapest, most substandard system I have experienced. Had to swap it out with better speakers and an amplifier.
Danger of air conditioning failure which we experienced after 3.8 years (just out of warranty). This cost approximately $3k to fix.
Dripping sound coming from the air conditioning system which the Subaru dealers have advised as standard on all vehicles. I highly recommend you undertake a full inspection at Subaru's cost should you experience this or risk full A/C failure!
Poor ride - very hard over bumps.
No default off mode for the 'start/stop' function.

Review
Owned the XV for over a year, quite happy with the purchase so far. Full of safety features, easy to drive and easy to maintain. Especially like the adaptive cruise control function. I always turn it on when driving on the express ways. Very reliable feature give you ease of mind.

What I like
Safety features, value for money, reliability

What I do not like
Fuel consumption is a bit high

Review
Car is about 3 year old and there is nothing to dislike!

The comfort and nvh is pretty good for this of segment.

Engine performance is decent although its NA.

FC wise for a awd its decent too but not the best.

Handling wise to my preference its top notch. Takes bends and corners like a low slung sedan without sacrificing too much of comfort, the AWD system also lets you have the confidence to take on bends during wet weather.

I always mod with my older cars and change out brakes, suspension parts but with this XV GT7, the stock parts are good enough for my usage.

Good job Subaru!

Have been driving for the past 1 year zzz
The best and the lowest priced 2.0L Engine AWD car available in the market.
Fully loaded with an array of safety features
Very good noise insulation
Spacious interiors

Review
I have been driving my 2019 XV for the past 38 months and still loving it! This car is not quick but the power is adequate. Lots of functional and safety features. Car is stable, love the AWD and you do feel safe driving the car. However, the boxer engine produces noise but bearable. Those who are not familiar with Subaru car, should go for test drive. I would be happy to rate 5 stars if not for the missing rear aircon vent. Great car indeed.

Review
My first car. A lot of safety features. Very easy to drive.

Fuel consumption

Review
I went down to Motor Images @ Leng Kee with my dad awhile ago to test drive the Subaru Impreza 5D & XV. Upon first glance at the XV, the GT-edition was rather too sporty looking, we decided to look at the Impreza and the normal XV. Turns out, the XV felt sturdier than the Impreza.

The XV itself is relatively small, but has the practicality of a compact hatchback. It is very maneuverable and agile. Stability in the corners are also very pronounced. However the ride in the back is rather stiff. Engine pickup under hard acceleration is rather average. Not really a mind-blowing punchy engine, but rather just good enough to move the car along.

I'd say overall, you get a lot of car for the money. Features, safety tech, and practicality.

What I like
- Subaru EyeSight 2.0; A lot of safety tech.
- Relatively cheap price for a CAT B car.
- High ground clearance. Good for off-roading or driving through flash floods.
- Decently sized boot.
- Permanent AWD for stability
- Signal, wipers and headlight controls are similar to that of a conti car layout. Not much issue transitioning between cars.

What I do not like
- EyeSight 2.0 turns off in really bad weather compared to the conventional camera + radar system.
- Road tax for a 2.0L
- Engine performance is just satisfactory, would be nice if the engine was smaller and turbocharged.
- Fuel consumption due to the AWD system.

Review
The 2.0 engine is powerful enough to manoeuvre. The safety features has saved me for several potential collisions. It is definitely a good car for a small family. The space is spacious enough. It has plenty of safety features as compared to any other cars from the same class.

What I like
Boxer Engine
Eyesight
360
plenty of safety features

What I do not like
Nil so far, maybe can add rear aircon

Review
The XV model of this car is well equipped with all the necessary features that I dreamt of for my first car. The car has a very high-tech interior that allows you to have superior control over any terrain and weather.
The top speed delivered by the boot boxer engine feels like heaven as it is accompanied by various technologies for drive assistance.

What I like
Great safety features such as Eyesight and lane keep functions.

What I do not like
Improvement Area:
Boot space

Review
Why do I love my XV:
1. I have full confidence of overtaking.
2. Has the power and responsiveness when needed.
3. EyeSight Driver's Assist Technology I can't imagine my car without it. Helps me easily keep my distance at flip of a switch.
4. X-Mode if I ever need to go Off Roading, I know that the XV can handle mud, puddles and inclines.
5. Choice of colours are unique and distinctive.
6. XV GT Styling is sporty yet not shouting loudness. "Classy Sport" Styling.

What I like
What I like:
similar to my review:
1. XV GT Styling
2. Colour variety
3. Safety is huge tick in my book of wants and needs for a car
4. Power and responsiveness
5. Agility
6. Height clearance gives one confidence to go through flooded roads
7. Rim styling very bold and eye catching
8. Comfortable for family of 4 persons

What I do not like
Could be better:
1. Boot space smaller than previous car, Qashqai
2. Middle compartment could be bigger
3. Dash area could have be redesigned to be able to place items on the dash without fear of them rolling off.
4. This is more a want...changeable interior lighting to match car colour especially the image on the car's dash to match the model and possibly the colour would be a nice personal touch.
