Two new special editions from Subaru are now available in limited numbers, adding more kit to two of the iconic brand’s popular models.

The Subaru Crosstrek Onyx and Impreza S-Edition have both joined the line-up, each based on the respective ‘2.0S’ variants in their model ranges but with extra features to entice customers in.

They’re both listed on the Subaru Australia website, though pricing and exact specifications weren’t public at the time of writing. Subaru instead supplied a list of the changes for each.

The 2026 Subaru Crosstrek Onyx comes in at $43,890 and is available in 250 units across Australia. While it’s (like the Impreza S-Edition) mechanically unchanged in terms of its drivetrain (a 2.0-litre naturally aspirated flat-four Boxer engine), it adds a series of extra styling elements.

Black trim elements and a rear spoiler, a dark metallic set of 18-inch wheels, a bonnet decal, mud guards and Onyx badging all come with the limited-edition Crosstrek. For reference, the standard Crosstrek 2.0S is $42,490.

For the Impreza S-Edition, which costs $42,490 (over the Impreza 2.0S at $38,990) and is even more limited to 100 units, looking sporty rather than rugged is the aim.

To that goal, plenty of STI parts including a front lip spoiler and a rear spoiler, a sports grille, STI trim inside and a set of 18-inch Enkei alloy wheels in black are included as well as ‘S-Edition’ badging.

Racing video games, car-spotting on road trips, and helping wash the family VL Calais Turbo as a kid were all early indicators that an interest in cars would stay present in Chris’ life, but loading up his 1990 VW Golf GTI Mk2 and moving from hometown Brisbane to work in automotive publishing in Melbourne ensured cars would be a constant. With a few years as MOTOR Magazine’s first digital journalist under his belt, followed by a stint as a staff journalist for Wheels Magazine, Chris’ career already speaks to a passion for anything with four wheels, especially the 1989 Mazda MX-5 he currently owns. From spending entire weeks dissecting the dynamic abilities of sports cars to weighing up the practical options for car buyers from all walks of life, Chris’ love for writing and talking about cars means if you’ve got a motoring question, he can give you an answer.
