Here are 9 photos of the base 2.0i and how it differs from the range-topping 2.0i-S.

First Drive: 2018 Subaru XV 2.0i-S
Six years ago, when it was spun out as its own distinct model (it used to be a variant of the Impreza), Subaru successfully carved a market for itself. No one, probably not even Subaru, thought that a slightly-smaller-but-not-too-small compact crossover would quickly become one of its most loved and best-selling core models.

On May 30, 1967, Mazda Motor Corporation began its legacy of doing what was said couldn’t be done. This was the day the independent Japanese company started to sell the Mazda Cosmo Sport 110S: the world’s first production twin-rotor, rotary-engine car.
