The Right
Cars Over Their Competitors
While we
here at Puente Hills Subaru near Los Angeles would like to think that our new
Subaru inventory feature unique models, they are often compared to some of
their challengers. Let us give you a brief taste of what these quality models
have to offer your daily commute that their competitors might not.
This
mid-size crossover SUV often finds itself compared to other mid-size SUV models
such as the Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V, as all three tend to be iconic among
their respective brands. However, you might find that the Forester comes out
ahead of many of these comparable SUVs when it comes to the overall interior
space as well as its starting price, which outmatches its Toyota and Honda
competitors.
The new
2019 Ascent just hit the streets of California, but it is already making a big
impression, compared to other three-row SUVs such as the Toyota Highlander or
Hyundai Santa Fe XL. However, you might notice that this three-row SUV offers a
wider range of safety technologies over its Hyundai competitor, thanks to the
availability of EyeSight® Driver-Assist Features. These features have their
equivalents on the Toyota Highlander, but this SUV ultimately falls short when
it comes to availability of other conveniences as well as its interior space.
As you
peruse our comparisons, you will see that these two iconic Subaru sedans face
tough competition from Honda, Mazda, and Ford, primarily. While Subaru and
Honda can be comparable in fuel efficiency, through their sedans, the Honda
Civic falls short of the Impreza in price as well as the availability of
all-wheel drive. In fact, the Subaru brand is one of the few that offers an
all-wheel drive system as standard fare on its sedan models, including the
Legacy. Most, if not all, comparable sedans from Honda, Mazda, and Ford do not
come available with all-wheel drive.
The
Crosstrek is one which you might often see in its natural habitat along the
trails near West Covina. This mid-size crossover has a unique design, but in
terms of performance, safety, and off-road prowess it is often compared to SUVs in
the Honda and Jeep lineup. The Crosstrek tends to lead the Honda HR-V and Jeep
Renegade in powertrain and fuel efficiency, in addition to interior comfort and
safety, through the availability of Variable-Assisted Steering.
The
Outback is another well-known Subaru crossover wagon which finds itself most at
home when taking on the off-road and other rugged adventures which might lay
ahead. In this manner, it is compared to the Nissan Rogue, Jeep Cherokee, and
Ford Escape. While the Subaru Outback tends to beat out its Nissan and Ford
competitors in safety and fuel efficiency, what is interesting is that the
Outback also beats out the Jeep Cherokee when it comes to towing capacity and
availability of certain convenience features that can come in handy in the
great outdoors. Jeep SUVs are typically hailed for their outdoorsy appeal, but
the Cherokee finds itself lacking in this regard.
Finally,
we come to these two well-known performance sedans. It can be hard to find
comparable models as both of these tend to be unique, being modeled after
performance motorsports models in Subaru's racing division. However, when it
comes to providing optimal speed and style for a more reliable price, models
such as the WRX tend to beat out its challengers from the Mazda3 sedan, Ford
Mustang, and Volkswagen Golf GTI. The WRX also features available Subaru
Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, which is lacking in availability from most other
performance models that feature rear-wheel drive only
