Subaru – My Preferred Choice of Car
Subaru are reliable and powerful line of cars with symmetrical All-Wheel Drive as standard on all models. Some dealerships even have an advanced driving course for new owners.
The Impreza is the least expensive model Subaru produces, and it 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 specifically designed to protect kids in the backseat. The car is also economical to run, running 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 great body-style, created for function, strength and class.. The price remains to be reasonable for a small sports utility vehicle, at just over $40,000.
At the top of the Subaru line, in terms of price and luxury, is the Tribeca. Prices for this SUV begins at $68,000 and you’re treated to the luxury 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. An advantage of owning a Subaru is its good resale value and an impressive engine life. Buying a used Subaru that has passed an inspection is still a good investment.
The symmetrical All-Wheel Drive feature is standard across the Subaru line. 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 unique 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 designed to teach new Subaru owners how to embrace the AWD, as well as various advanced driving techniques. Customers that attend the defensive driving courses find that they become better acquainted with their new vehicles and wind up enjoying them more.
