Subaru

Subaru has experienced a strong surge in sales for over a decade that shows no signs of stopping. Lead by the brand’s SUVs, products like the Outback, Forester, and Crosstrek have proved to be an excellent value while also offering standard all-wheel drive. New for the 2022 model year are the additions of the Wilderness trim levels for the Forester and Outback that further enhance the vehicle’s off-road ability.

The Ascent joined the lineup a few years ago to provide a three-row option for shoppers. Subaru’s car offerings, the Impreza and Legacy, may not have the same sales success as the brand’s crossovers, but with standard all-wheel drive, they still have a loyal following. Especially in the snow belt.

Meanwhile the WRX is now Subaru’s performance car halo model, with the discontinuation of the WRX STI last year. The WRX is all-new for 2023 and features a torquier 2.4-liter turbocharged engine. The back-to-basics BRZ sports car slots below the WRX, and was all-new last year with a more powerful 2.4-liter engine.

Subaru Ascent - Review, Specs, Pricing, Features, Videos and More

Subaru’s Ascent is the no-nonsense vehicle of the three-row SUV world. It’s designed to excel at its intended job without any excessive flash or flair. Shuttling seven or eight passengers from point A to point B, regardless of weather or road conditions, is the Ascent’s operational directive. Recently though, it’s gained a bit more personality as Subaru looks to expand the vehicle’s appeal.

2024 Subaru WRX TR Review: The More Things Change...

Like clockwork, every new Subaru WRX generation is met with criticism, only for Subaru to respond by adding subsequent trim(s) that supposedly make good on the newest vehicle’s disappointments. The introduction of the VB-gen WRX for the 2022 model year brought waves of hatred over the acres of cladding, negligible power increase, complaints that it wasn’t involving enough, and the demise of the beloved STI variant. The result is the WRX TR, a car in which Subaru claims to have tightened up the driving dynamics while maintaining the all-wheel-drive capability and fun-fused everyday drivability the sedan is known for.
