    Review: 2014 Subaru Forester XT
    1368547200

    Power Doesn't Come Cheap When Subaru first offered a turbocharged Forester XT model to North American customers for the 2004 model year, the shoe-shaped second-gen model fell into a ready-made competitive set of small, V6-powered crossovers and SUVs. The XT might have been more of a raucous shopping-trip companion than, say, a Ford Escape V6, but the ...

    Review: 2013 Subaru Legacy 3.6R Road Test Review
    1358620740

    A civilized midsize family sedan with an all-wheel drive difference For buyers seeking a competent, comfortable and conservatively styled midsized family sedan, there's certainly no shortage of choice out there, with the Toyota Camry, Kia Optima, Nissan Altima, Chevrolet Malibu and Honda Accord all springing immediately to mind (although ...

    Quick Spin: 2013 Subaru Outback Limited
    1357761420

    Subaru has given the 2013 Outback a host of detail changes and updates, though you'd hardly know from looking at it. The mild exterior changes mostly go unnoticed, and if you're comparing on a numbers basis, the new 2.5-litre four-cylinder engine is bang-on what the old engine would do. The biggest news is EyeSight, Subaru's new stereo camera-based system ...

    Quick Spin: 2013 Subaru WRX Special Edition
    1355515200

    Two months ago, I was carving pumpkins in a canyon – last week I was carving canyons in a pumpkin. I genuinely prefer the latter. It's hard to miss the 2013 Subaru WRX Special Edition. The twins (the automaker is offering the package on both the WRX and its higher-performing STI sibling) arrive in Tangerine Orange paint with Jet Black wheels, black ...

    Quick Spin: 2013 Subaru Legacy 2.5i
    1353009480

    Two other cars kept coming to mind during my week with the 2013 Subaru Legacy 2.5i. The first was the 2010 Subaru Legacy 2.5 GT that we tested for a full year in our long-term fleet, and the second was the new-for-2012 Toyota Camry, the indisputable best-selling car in the US and assembly line sibling of the Legacy. The two cars are built side-by-side at ...

    Review: 2013 Subaru BRZ
    1352739660

    Subaru is well known for one element of automotive technology that has huge collateral benefits - all wheel drive. Their trait as a car manufacturer has always centered around putting the power down to all four wheels for safety or for extreme performance. And they have done a stellar job at perfecting their symmetrical all wheel drive system, adapting it ...

    Review: 2013 Subaru XV Crosstrek
    1352221020

    A Rugged Runabout For The Masses If there's one thing manufacturers can't stand, it's a void in the marketplace. Product planners spend untold hours scouring the automotive spectrum for any whiff of white space, and once found, waste no time in sussing up a new model to fill the vacuum. That's how we wind up with oddities like the Nissan Murano ...

    First Drive: 2013 Subaru BRZ [w/video]
    1332777600

    Subaru Gives Us Their Sports Car On Real Roads. Does It Deliver? Last December, our wandering man of intrigue Jonathan Ramsey drove a Subaru BRZ prototype at Japan's Tochigi circuit under somewhat controlled conditions and was nonetheless very impressed. Then, in that same month, SoCal lad Michael Harley – he who knows a thing or two about ...

    Review: 2012 Subaru Impreza
    1323968220

    Going Mainstream With The Beauty Of All-Wheel-Drive Subaru found itself in an interesting position when the auto market imploded back in 2009. While most manufacturers were busily darting about trying to stop their sales from bleeding out, the quirky Japanese automaker actually posted gains in both market share and earnings during the recession. It was ...

    Measuring The Difference In Inches One point three inches. How much difference can it make? That depends on what you're measuring. If you're comparing the 2010 Subaru Impreza WRX to the 2011, that small measurement makes all the difference in the world. If you're a Subie fan, you've already read our First Drive. The headline news for the 2010-to-2011 ...
