Why I Enjoy Subarus?
Good looking and powerful, these are the characteristics of Subaru line of vehicles with the special distinction of offering All-Wheel Drive on every vehicle. Selected Subaru dealers also have an defensive driving course for new owners.
The least expensive yet powerful model Subaru makes is the Impreza. It is one of the safest cars in the market with a 5-star ANCAP safety rating. Equipped with both driver and passenger airbags, as well as side curtain airbags and lower seat belt restraints especially planned to protect toddlers in the backseat. The car is also cheap to run, running 27 MPG on the highway and still costing below $25,000 brand-new.
The Subaru Outback received the coveted 2010 Motor Trend’s Sport/Utility of the Year Award. The Outback is suitable for family or the single person, with a great body-style, 170 engine horsepower and created for function. The price continues to be reasonable for a 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 sets out 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.
Medium-sized models by Subaru are the Liberty and Forester, also highly rated for safety by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. It should be mentioned 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.
The All-Wheel Drive feature is special to the Subaru line. 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 designed to tutor new Subaru owners how to embrace the AWD, as well as various advanced 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.
