SIPS GAS

IT IS NO HYBRID BUT THE MILEAGE I GET IS THE BEST I HAVE EVER SEEN. SURE FOOTED IN BAD WEATHER. ALL I COULD ASK FOR IN A VEHICLE. IT IS NO SPORTS CAR BUT THAT IS NOT ITS PURPOSE EITHER. RELIABLE AND EASY TO DRIVE. AS IN OTHER CARS I HAVE DRIVEN THOUGH THE VOICE RECOGNITION CONTROLS ARE NOT THAT GOOD.

Comfortable

This is all you could ask for in a compact SUV. The best of all I test drove. Great for around town or long trips. Very good gas mileage.

Well built car

This car drives well, solid built and is equipped with everything we wanted in a car. This car has electric drivers seats, lumbar, and heated seats. I love the electric rear door opener. We are very pleased with this car when traveling . We got 30 mpg on the road. It's an excellent purchase.

Love the all wheel drive!

I wish it was a higher level car. That's the only thing I really don't like about it, it's too low and I'm always worried of entering any bumps that it might scratch the front.

My First Subaru

I love it. It's comfortable, adorable, reliable and gets great gas mileage. The all wheel drive is amazing especially living in New England.
