I have one of these as a hire car in Spain and last night i left the handbrake off by mistake and it rolled down the hill but stopped itself from hitting a car
I live in Brazil and I need information about SUBARU XV. I intend to purchase the car, but here we only have the 2022 Hybrid model, which I don't like, they say it's weak. I prefer the gasoline XV 2021 model, it looks more robust. Another thing, we only have 4 stores in Brazil and a few mechanics, but above all I dream of having a SUBARU. I was thinking about importing the car, I have that possibility Is this car really worth buying? What do they say to me? Thanks
Kyle in 2018 my neighbor in 512 A Lafayette bought another Subaru Forester 2.0iL when they had their Green Forester 2017 2.0iL so it would be the same, but they chose blue for their forester
Hi Kyle, new subscriber here. Been binge watching your videos for the past 3 days. Love how detailed it is! Between this XV variant and Geely Azkarra Luxury would you prefer? :)
New sub here Since 2018 I been dreaming of this car just can't find the budget to buy it hehe maybe next year or two I just like to ask about the manual mood and the paddle shifts, how good was it
Thanks for subbing! Well the manual mode is great for a simulated gear CVT transmission, but of course it still can’t compare to nor feel like what you’d get with a dual clutch system in terms of crispness and responsiveness
Thanks for the reply I this car is on the expensive side but the safety you will get from it will cover it Again great review it reignite my desire for this car
@@sailormoon4187 Yeah I gotta agree it's a little bit on the premium side in terms of price, but if you're looking for a nice, low to the ground crossover, this is not bad
The premium is on both price and experience Naman I think that's why I still considers this car I will check your other videos for comparison maybe I will see some alternative ☺️
How would you compare the ride of the Subaru XV with Ford Territory - in terms of suspension and how it feels on the road? I've narrowed down my choice between Territory and Subaru XV. I've test driven the Subaru XV and was really impressed how quiet and how good the suspension is. Subaru XV is my top choice at this point over the two, but it is way more expensive. If the price of both is the same, which one would you choose?
Hi Kyle, how different would be the fuel economy figures for this XV or a XT Forester 2018 and its driving dynamics? I already have a 7 seater. I didn’t want the new Forester because it didn’t have the turbo but if I’d have much lesser weight like the XV, I guess I wouldn’t mind this one considering its tech, hence the eyesight and new global platform design.
In general, I found the driving dynamics of the Subaru crossover models to be rather similar. Slight difference but only perceivable when you truly look for them. Even fuel economy actually. This is true for the XV, Forester, and Outback
Hi kyle. Quick question which one would you prefer without considering the price. The azkarra or this xv. I’ll divide it in to 3 categories 1. Performance in power output 2. Handling and comfortability of the ride 3. Interior(including all the camera quality, tech and head unit). Thanks! Hope you could answer my question. Stay safe!
Honestly, disregarding price, it’s the Azkarra for all 3 of those. Only time I would go for the XV in this situation is if you wanted a smaller car, Eyesight, and Symetrical AWD
As always parang nag kwento lang sa pag re-view ng subaru xv hahaha! 👏👏👏 Excellent work! Dag dagan natin work mo haha Question ano ba yang boxer engine? Ano ang kaibahan?
Thanks hahaha! Pag boxer engine, instead of up and up down movement ng pistons, horizontal siya so parang nagsusuntukan yung mga pistons. Since horizontal siya, less height, so lower rin. Lowering center of gravity, improving handling
How was the sound system in terms of sound from the speakers. Last time I checked out an XV (pre face-lift no Android Auto etc), it sounded really bad.
@@KyleLiongCars thanks for the feedback, honestly on the old one, it sounded like AM Radio tunog lata.🙄. Just wish it came with the Harmon Kardon system of the other cars. When are you doing the new Outback?
Who knows when those systems might go loco. Kidding aside, the Subaru eyesight seems far more advanced than most because it uses cameras instead of sensors. The one thing I am so opposed to with the Subs is their widespread use of CVT. CVTs kill whatever driving experience is left in the car.
Bought it Bnew 2018. This is Casa Maintained. XV, the most unreliable vehicle we have! 35k odo, and BallJoints, Stabilizer links, Front Rotors are worn out, and 4 Speakers 🔊!! I cant believe how Fragile this vehicle is! What a waste of Money!!!! Dont buy it!

Manila roads need cars like these. Good to see they're getting more common these days
I personally still prefer sedans but yeah I get the need for these cars

Amazing
damn
Your reviews are getting better and better!
Thanks! I try to keep improving
Actually a really great and practical review for a youtube style.
Thanks
damn kyle, these videos keep on getting better
Thanks hahaha
@@KyleLiongCars can't wait for you to review the 2021 all new Isuzu MuX once it comes out. Heard that some spotted them in Slex yesterday.
Yeah definitely would love to try those
Great review + excellent comm skills! :)
Thanks
XV's New Wheels Look Really Nice!
Yes I agree :D
Love this car, this my dream car🔥🤩🤩
Get it while it has the introductory discount :)
no power liftgate, i like that
spoken with such gusto brother
couldnt agree more 👌
Hahaha
Nice Review!!! We have a 2016 Subaru Outback 2.5L, Its true Subaru CVTs sound is not really that annoying compare to other cvts out there!
The one in the 2018 Outback 3.6 of ours isn’t the most desirable. Much better on the XV
@@KyleLiongCars Is the 2.0 engine of XV underpower or just right?
Check the driving segment hehe! Sums up my thoughts on it :)

Not sure that would we practical to do from the Philippines
You speak english very well i bet that gives you an edge and confidence. Nice video. Thanks. 🌿
Thanks! It’s my first language
@@KyleLiongCars ah ok, you must have been born in a country where English is the national language. Do you speak chinese?
Born and raised in the Philippines. We speak English here haha! Yes I speak Chinese too

Great review! I was hook again!!!
😍
Watching from Palma De Mallorca, Spain 🇪🇸
I dunno if I saw was a diesel engine Subaru XV displayed in a mall here.
Damn. I’d love to try a diesel Subaru…… never even knew they existed haha! Thanks for watching
@@KyleLiongCars yah! I have a photo of the badge. And it says XV Boxer Diesel. I was surprised that they have diesel engine.
Nice review. I can tell you're a Subaru fan. So am I. :)
Not really haha but I would say they make pretty good cars. Thanks though
Hi Kyle, new subscriber here. Been binge watching your videos for the past 3 days. Love how detailed it is! Between this XV variant and Geely Azkarra Luxury would you prefer? :)
Thanks! I prefer the Azkarra
@@KyleLiongCars pede din ba i offroad ang azkarra?
Mild offroading only
Another great review, keep it up
More to come! Thanks

does this have rear emrgnecy braking as well ?
great review, honest thoughts on Subaru's reliability?
We have the Outback and some underchassis rattles, but has never really broken down on us

@@KyleLiongCars thanks! Appreciate it! 😁🙏
No prob
Did you review a Forrester? Would love to watch your opinion on that car as well.
Haven’t reviewed one yet, unfortunately. Hope I get access to one :)
I enjoyed this review.. a lot..a lot,a lot… wherever you go to school, I’m probably sending my kids there too. LOL.
Hahaha thanks
As always parang nag kwento lang sa pag re-view ng subaru xv hahaha!
👏👏👏 Excellent work!
Dag dagan natin work mo haha
Question ano ba yang boxer engine?
Ano ang kaibahan?
Thanks hahaha! Pag boxer engine, instead of up and up down movement ng pistons, horizontal siya so parang nagsusuntukan yung mga pistons. Since horizontal siya, less height, so lower rin. Lowering center of gravity, improving handling
I see mas reliable ba compared sa ordinary engine na available at common dito na ginagamit sa pinas?
Hmmm I’d say roughly similar lang naman. Not really any more special than a regular engine in terms of reliability
I just love the wheels of xv. So Porsche like.
Which trim is it?
?
@@KyleLiongCars Base, Premium, Sport, Limited?
@martinlutherkingjr.5582 2.0i-S
Crossover Wagon-ish. Me likey!
Short super. More like crossover hatchback
I love this car.
Same
I have a 2018 model xv, can I buy those new design mags?
Probably in a couple of shops down the line for those who’ve traded them in haha
The infotainment system looks completely different than the 2018 model.
That’s good. Improvement
How was the sound system in terms of sound from the speakers. Last time I checked out an XV (pre face-lift no Android Auto etc), it sounded really bad.
Actually not bad on this one. I’d rate it above-decent. Like 6/10?
@@KyleLiongCars thanks for the feedback, honestly on the old one, it sounded like AM Radio tunog lata.🙄. Just wish it came with the Harmon Kardon system of the other cars. When are you doing the new Outback?
Not sure pa when but Subaru did say they were gonna line me up na for it
Admit it, you flinched a bit when you tested the eyesight lol 🤣 another great review!
I rehearsed 3 times before filming that scene HAHAHAHA! Flinched the first 2 times 😂😂😂
Now, wouldn’t you?
@@KyleLiongCars I don't think I'd be able to just stand still hehe
It’s really not that scary hahaha! You can always jump in case it goes wrong

Not sure
That's my dream car
Go get it :D
Xv or toyota cross:)
Maybe Cross for me
@@KyleLiongCars thanks much.
Welcome
subaru forester review pls
Already planning it with Subaru :)
@@KyleLiongCars request lang po: kindly explain the difference between the outback and the forester besides the obvious. thanks 😊
Like what exactly? To be honest they’re very similar in design and architecture
@@KyleLiongCars yun nga po theyre very similar. what i mean is the pros and cons of each car in different situations
Ah ok sige I’ll try to look for them if any :)
1st
👍🏻👍🏻
If you tie Dougs hands behind his back he wouldn’t be able to speak.
Try tying mine. Look at my hands in some clips of the driving segment hahaha
@@KyleLiongCars May I try tying yours? 😜
