Subaru
With over 50 years in America, Subaru succeeds because it knows exactly what its customers want: rock-steady reliability paired with the all-weather assurance of all-wheel drive. The Forester offers room for five and ample ground clearance for off-road adventures. If you need more space, the Ascent has the same ground clearance and room for up to eight. The Outback is smaller than either the Ascent or the Forester. If you have a need for speed, check out the rally-bred Subaru WRX.
