Hot off the presses, auto media source The Newswheel reports that both models have been awarded spots on the much-sought-after KBB slate. So, what does this mean for Confidence In Motion? It means that, among new cars, especially here in Bremerton, WA, it's Subaru that stands the test of time. So, what did the auto research and value expert find?

Journalism's got a knack for keeping things in perspective, so we will, too. The new Subaru Impreza and WRX were found to retain the lion's share of their value while keeping depreciation to a minimum, even after five years of ownership. The true takeaway from all this: that makes five years of compact car-segment wins and four years for the compact sports sedan respectively.
Thomas J. Doll, Subaru president, was quick to affirm the enduring Subaru commitment to "the highest standards of safety, reliability, and dependability," to be sure. Given the roster of features under the hood and in-cabin in both the new Impreza and WRX, we at Peninsula Subaru can see where both the expert appreciation and professional commentary came from.
For one, both models earned Residual Value Awards from the TrueCar Inc. analytics division ALG, an industry authority when it comes to appraising enduring value. But you'll find the dedication that made such grades in each and every new Subaru build, right from the get-go. It's in the durability of the new Subaru Global Platform and its ultra-rigid, impact-absorbing high-strength steel construction. You'll discover it in the solid feel and impeccable handling credentials afforded by the duo of standard Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and a horizontally opposed flat-four SUBARU BOXER engine. But perhaps most of all, you can see it in a host of proven Subaru safety technologies, from optional EyeSight driver-assist tech to available STARLINK Safety and Security connected services support and more.
