You could say that it’s an insatiable pursuit of excellence that makes each Subaru
unique and rated highly in third party assessments. Or maybe it’s Subaru’s legendary
symmetrical full-time All-Wheel Drive system that provides a balance of driving
pleasure and control, on any road, in any weather. It could also be attributed to our
high occupant protection safety standards that inspire driver confidence and peace
of mind. And, let’s not forget the unusually long list of standard features offered on
each model. For all these reasons, the 2006 Subaru line-up has received top scores
across the board and we couldn’t be more proud.
