Consumer Reports: Subaru Takes #1 in 2025

Subaru is Consumer Reports’ top-ranked brand for 2025, outranking Lexus, Toyota, and Honda. Here’s why:

  • #1 in reliability and owner satisfaction
  • Forester and Crosstrek included in Consumer Reports' Top 10 Picks for 2025
“Subaru leads the industry in predicted reliability and road test scores.”
– Consumer Reports, 2025

 

Kelley Blue Book Echoes the Praise

KBB consistently ranks Subaru vehicles among the best SUVs and sedans for families and active lifestyles. Their experts highlight:

  • Subaru Crosstrek: Exceptional AWD capability, off-road ready, compact city size
  • Subaru Forester: Spacious, safe, easy for families with strollers or gear
  • Subaru Outback: Long-haul comfort, reliability, and year-round utility
“Subaru is the Consumer Reports’ most trusted brand – again – and that trust is well earned.”

Utah’s varied climate demands vehicles that can handle both snow and sunshine. Local Subaru owners rave about:

  • Year-round traction from Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive
  • Incredible resale value even after years of use
  • Longevity – many models hit 200,000+ miles with basic maintenance
“If you're a good car parent, they’re ready to drive to the moon. Mine has 225k and still climbs Parley’s Canyon like a goat.”
