Top 5 Reasons to Go with a Subaru

 

Subaru is quickly becoming one of the top-selling nameplates in the country. In fact, it has boasted several years of record-breaking sales as more and more people have discovered what makes it so special.

With the Subaru, you can choose from a wide selection of stylish and sophisticated models. You can find what you need, whether you are shopping for speed or safety, for yourself or your family. Here are the top five reasons why many people choose Subaru when they look for their next vehicle:

Advanced All-Wheel Drive

Subaru outfits its vehicles with all-wheel drive. While that is nothing new, the way that Subaru designs the system is. Subaru offers symmetrical all-wheel drive, which is powered directly by a Boxer engine that sends power to all wheels simultaneously. The design prevents any slippage on the road, so the vehicle enjoys greater power and control on uncertain terrain. The system also includes equal drive shafts to prevent torque steer.

Boxer Engine for Greater Fuel Retention

Subaru has a signature "boxer engine," which is so-named for the horizontal movement of its pistons. This design allows the engine's output to flow directly into the transmission, which reduces inefficiencies and results in greater fuel economy. With gas prices continually rising and natural resources being on the decline, improved fuel efficiency has significant long-term benefits not only for the individual driver, but for everyone.

Superior Safety

Subaru vehicles are some of the safest on the road, in part because of the Boxer engine that has a low center of gravity so it drops below the passenger compartment in case of an accident (instead of inside it) and in part because of other advanced safety features. Subaru has regularly made the list of top safety picks by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.

Low Cost of Ownership

Not only are Subarus affordable to buy, but they have one of the lowest costs of ownership of any other automaker. The overall maintenance, estimated repairs, and fuel costs are relatively low. Subarus are generally budget-friendly vehicles both at the point of purchase and long into the future.

Retention of Value

Buying a vehicle isn't just a necessity; it's also an investment. When you are ready to upgrade your vehicle - likely to a newer Subaru - you can be sure that you'll get a good price for your outgoing Subaru. These vehicles hold great value on the secondary market, and they retain their values better than most nameplates.
