Why I Love Subarus?
Subaru are great looking and powerful line of vehicles with the special distinction of offering All-Wheel Drive on every vehicle. Selected Subaru dealers also provide an advanced driving course for new owners.
The least expensive yet powerful model Subaru makes is the Impreza. With a five-star ANCAP safety rating, and have both driver and passenger airbags, as well as side curtain airbags and lower seatbelt restraints specifically planned to protect kids in the backseat. The car is also cheap to run, making 27 MPG on the freeeway and still costing below $25,000 brand new.
The Outback received the coveted 2010 Motor Trend’s Sport/Utility of the Year Award. It has a fantastic body-style, created for function, strength and class. With 170 horsepower, the Outback is suitable for family or the single person with a more active life style. The price remains to be reasonable for a small SUV, at just over $40,000.
The Tribeca is at the top of the Subaru line, in terms of price and luxury. Prices for this SUV starts at $68,000 and you’re treated to the luxury finish you would expect in a higher-end vehicle: leather seats, sunroof, heated front seats and a backup rear-vision camera.
Mid-range models by Subaru are the Liberty and Forester, also highly rated for safety by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. It should be noted that Subaru’s have an excellent resale value and an impressive engine life. Buying a used Subaru that has passed an inspection is still a good investment.
All Subaru cars have the All-Wheel Drive feature as standard. Instead of having to engage 4-Wheel Drive, each tire moves when you’re driving. This includes turning, giving the Subaru unmatched turning radius and traction.
It s also a little different from you may be used to, which is why some Subaru dealers actually offer advanced driving courses. They are intended to teach new Subaru owners how to comprehend the AWD, as well as various defensive driving techniques. Customers that attend the defensive driving courses discover that they become better familiarized with their new vehicles and end up enjoying them more.
