Why I Love Subarus?
Subaru are good looking and powerful line of vehicles with the special distinction of offering All-Wheel Drive on every vehicle. Selected Subaru dealerships also provide an defensive driving course for new owners.
Inexpensive yet powerful, the Impreza still packs a punch. It was awarded a five-star ANCAP safety rating, and have both driver and passenger air bags, as well as side curtain airbags and lower seat belt restraints especially designed to protect children in the backseat. The car is also cheap to run, getting 27 MPG on the highway and still costing under $25,000 brand-new.
The Outback won the coveted 2010 Motor Trend’s Sport/Utility of the Year Award. The Outback is suitable for families with a more active life style, it has a fantastic body-style, created for function, strength and class.. It is one of the most affordable small sports utility vehicle, 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 finish you would anticipate in a higher-end vehicle: leather seats, power moon roof, heated front seats and a backup rear-vision camera.
In between these models are the Liberty and Forester, also highly rated for safety by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Most Subaru’s have an impressive engine life and a strong resale value. 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 uncomparable turning radius and grip.
This feature is a little different from what you may be used to, which is why some Subaru dealers actually offer defensive driving courses. They are intended to teach new Subaru owners how to embrace 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.
