When Automotive Push Comes To Shove, the Subaru Brand Comes Out On Top
Sometimes, shopping for a car is a subjective
experience. When it's not, and you find yourself pouring over spec sheet after
spec sheet searching for the right option for you, the process tends to stop
being fun. That's why Marin Subaru makes comparing the models you want to buy
easier than ever. On this page, you'll find comprehensive comparisons of our
models against segment and industry leaders, and winning insight into what
makes our Outback, Forester, Impreza, and Crosstrek models superior.
But there are some aspects of our Subaru lineup
that go beyond model-to-model comparisons. In fact, some of the overall
benefits of owning one may surprise you. Read on to learn more about the
qualities that come standard in every Subaru model we have on our lot.
What sets our San Rafael Subaru lineup
apart from the competition
- Off-Road Ready. When you think
of Subaru SUVs such as the Forester, Crosstrek, and Outback, what are some of
the first qualities that come to mind? If their high ground clearance and
utility-driven stances were some of the first things that come to your mind,
you're bang on. Each of the aforementioned models come with 8.7-inches of
ground clearance, perfect for taking your adventures off the beaten
path.
- Best Fuel Economy W/ Symmetrical
AWD. Every model in the Subaru stable (excluding the BRZ) comes with
symmetrical all-wheel drive standard. If you've shopped for vehicles from other
automakers, you might have noticed a significant fuel economy sacrifice. That's
not the case with our Subaru lineup. Every model gets over 30 mpg highway, with
the Impreza (37 mpg) and Legacy (36 mpg) getting the highest marks.
- Intelligent Safety. In recent
years, Subaru has put a greater emphasis on safety than ever before. Starting
in 2015, the brand began offering its innovative EyeSight safety suite on
select models. This system--available across the lineup--looks out for you no
matter where, and how you drive.
- Impressive Interior Space.
You'd be hard pressed to find a lineup of vehicles that offer more impressive
interior volume. Virtually every Subaru on our lot boasts cabin space that's
at, or near the top of their class. With the versatility inherent in every
model, you get quite a bit of bang for your buck.
- Long-Lasting Engineering. Ever
notice how many older model-year Subarus you see? Ever wonder how pre-owned
outlets can get away with selling eight, even ten year old models on their
lots? That's because Subaru models are built to last. Some are even passed down
for generations.
- Award-Winning Resale Value. For
the 2016 model year, Subaru won Kelley Blue Book's Best Brand in their annual
Resale Value Awards. With a lineup that is accessibly-priced throughout its
range, KBB found that Subaru models hold their value longer than competing
brands. And of course, none can match up to the long-lasting symmetrical
all-wheel drive and Subaru BOXER engine tech.
