Can you flat tow a Subaru Crosstrek?

I’m going on a road trip in my RV but I want to tow my Crosstrek behind us. Is that possible?

According to Subaru, you can only flat tow a Crosstrek if it is a 2021 or later model year and does not have a Lineartronic continuously variable transmission.
If your car doesn’t fall into this category, your best bet is to use a trailer to pull your car behind the RV. Flat towing a car that isn’t meant to be flat towed can cause serious damage to the transmission or powertrain and result in very expensive repairs.
Flat towing your Subaru Crosstrek against the manufacturer’s advice can also result in your limited and/or powertrain warranty being voided. Even with your warranty intact, it’s important to make sure that you’re covered by reliable car insurance. To find the best
