Subaru Crosstrek 4Wild limited edition and Honda Element SUV announced

Subaru unveiled the Crosstrek 4Wild, a limited‑run 4×4 model capped at 100 units. The vehicle features the brand’s permanent symmetrical AWD system, a hybrid e‑BOXER powertrain with a 2.0‑liter Boxer engine delivering 153 hp and 248 Nm, a seven‑speed Lineartronic transmission, 22 cm ground clearance and 18‑inch alloy wheels with black‑orange styling. Exterior design cues include a mesh grille, three‑dimensional LED headlights and distinctive 4Wild badging, while the interior offers an 11.6‑inch Full HD touchscreen and up to 1,314 L of cargo space.

Honda announced plans to revive the Element for a 2029 launch, positioning the new model as a hybrid SUV between the HR‑V and CR‑V. Production will occur at Honda’s Ohio plant for worldwide distribution. The next‑generation Element will retain its unique practical design—large opening rear doors, lack of a B‑pillar and a spacious, flat cargo floor—while replacing the original gasoline K24 engine with a hybrid system. Targeting young, urban buyers who enjoy outdoor activities, the refreshed Element aims to re‑enter a market now dominated by models such as the Ford Bronco Sport.
