Comprehensive training programs are crucial in ensuring that first responders in communities across the country have the knowledge they need to handle situations deftly and save lives.

Getting the most out of your car means a lot more than just considering the purchase price. A vehicle is an investment, and between insurance, maintenance costs, fuel costs, and depreciation, how much a car costs you to own can be wildly different from how expensive a purchase it was in the first place. This is why every year, Kelley Blue Book runs its 5-Year Cost to Own awards, and this year, Subaru has taken home five different awards in recognition of Subaru vehicles being excellent long-term investments for drivers!
Being more than a car company has always been a crucial part of the way that Subaru operates.

Subaru owners love their vehicles and come back for more again and again, and for an automaker, that’s something worth being proud of. It becomes even better when that quality is recognized by awards like the ones that Subaru just received from S&P Global Mobility, one of the leading providers of automotive data and analysis. Subaru received the Highest Overall Loyalty to Dealer award for the 2022 calendar year, as well as recognition for the Subaru Outback, which was given the award for Highest Model Loyalty in the Mid-Size Utility Segment.
