Reasons to Buy a Subaru
Saturday, January 23rd, 2010Subaru are great looking and powerful line of vehicles with the extraordinary distinction of offering All-Wheel Drive on every car. Selected Subaru dealerships also provide an advanced driving course for new owners.
The least expensive model Subaru makes is the Subaru Impreza, and it still packs a punch. It is one of the safest cars in the market with a 5-star ANCAP safety rating. Fitted with both driver and passenger airbags, as well as side curtain airbags and lower seat belt restraints especially designed to protect children in the backseat. The car is economical as well, running 27 MPG on the highway and still costing below $25,000 brand-new.
The Outback received the coveted 2010 Motor Trend’s Sport/Utility of the Year Award. The Outback is fitted for family or the single person, with a great body-style, 170 engine HP and created for function. The price continues 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 sets out at $68,000 and you’re treated to the luxury finish you would anticipate in a higher-end vehicle: leather, sunroof, heated front seats and a backup rear-vision camera.
Medium-sized models by Subaru are the Liberty and Forester, also highly ranked 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 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 traction.
It s also a little different from you may be used to, which is why some Subaru dealerships actually offer advanced driving courses. They are designed to teach new Subaru owners how to handle the AWD, as well as various advanced driving techniques. Customers that attend the advanced driving courses find that they become better familiarised with their new vehicles and end up enjoying them more.
