Customers would like a heated steering wheel on the second-generation 2020 Subaru Crosstrek but still can’t get it on the Base, Premium, or even the top-trim Limited model. Shoppers can get the All-Weather Package that includes 2-stage heated front seats, heated exterior mirrors, and windshield wiper de-icer, but no heated steering wheel.
If customers want to keep their hands warm they can only get one on the 2020 Crosstrek Hybrid model and have to spend $38,655 to get one. The heated steering wheel only comes with an option package ($2,500) on Crosstrek Hybrid that also brings a power moonroof and Starlink 8.0-inch multimedia voice-activated navigation system. Also included with the package is a Harman Kardon 8-speaker system with a 432-watt equivalent amplifier.
2020 Subaru Crosstrek
At least up until now, customers can’t get a 2020 Crosstrek Hybrid in many areas of the country as Subaru only offers the more fuel-stingy model in a few select areas like California and some northeastern states. This journalist lives in Colorado where the Crosstrek Hybrid would be a popular model if customers could get one. We searched all dealers in Colorado and none are available.
There are other value-priced compact car models you can get a heated steering wheel and there are lots of choices. Shoppers can get one on the Kia Optima EX with the premium package ($30,915), Buick Regal Sportback ($30,695), Jeep Cherokee ($25,895), Kia Soul ($25,985), Nissan Altima ($28,080), and Nissan Rogue Sport ($27,960).
2020 Subaru Crosstrek
The Crosstrek is the brand’s “go-anywhere” all-weather compact SUV that is the third best-selling model in Subaru of America’s stable of vehicles. It’s the ideal vehicle for cold-weather climates with standard Symmetrical all-wheel-drive and sits higher with 8.7-inches of ground clearance. A new generation of customers uses it for off-road adventures and for winter sports.
The new 2020 Subaru Crosstrek well-optioned Premium trim with a CVT automatic transmission ($25,555) comes standard with heated front seats, windshield wiper de-icer, and heated exterior mirrors. Customers would gladly pay a few hundred dollars to add the heated steering wheel if Subaru would offer it.

Here in Canada, only the Limited edition Crosstrek comes with the Heated Steering Wheel. Way out of my price range at 38,500$. Then another 500.00$ to add a remote starter. The heated steering and remote starter come standard on Nissan mid-models.
