Convenience with EyeSight gains a 4.2-inch colour multi-information display integrated into the gauge cluster, priced at $25,095.

Touring trim enhances ride comfort with a rear stabilizer bar, mounted directly onto the body as opposed to the sub-frame to further reduce vehicle body roll.

Touring with EyeSight adds paddle shifters and gear position display to the CVT, offering a seven-speed manual mode. Remote engine start and stop is added to SUBARU STARLINK Connected Services for a starting price of $27,195.

Silver trim accents are featured on the dashboard and doors, along with silver accent stitching and aluminum alloy pedals. Premium cloth adorns the seating surfaces including the six-way power adjustable driver's seat. The infotainment system grows to incorporate an 8.0-inch touch screen and dual USB ports are added to the centre armrest.

Sport with EyeSight gains even more drivers assist features with Reverse Automatic Braking and High-Beam Assist, priced at $30,095.

The final trim, available exclusively with a CVT, is Sport-tech with EyeSight. Priced at $32,895, this range-topping trim adds active torque vectoring to the braking system alongside 18-inch aluminum alloy wheels, chrome door shoulder moulding, chrome fog light surround, gloss black grille accents, and integrated LED turn signals in the door mirrors. Inside, silver trim accents are added to the instrument panel, seating surfaces are draped in leather, and the automatic climate system becomes dual zone.
