Top Safety Pick

A new study by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) in America has found that Subaru vehicles are among the safest on the road. 

The insurance backed organisation conducted a series of stringent frontal, side, rear and rollover crash tests on a wide variety of vehicles and found that Subaru was the only manufacturer to receive enough points to be awarded its “Top Safety Pick” award for every car model it entered. Subaru outperformed other contenders from the likes of Audi, Honda, Ford, Volkswagen and Volvo.

Subaru’s five IIHS Top Safety Pick awards came in four different categories as follows;

- The new Legacy and Outback were recognised in the Midsize car group.

- The Imprezza was picked for the Small car category.

- The Forester was awarded the small SUV section.

- Finally the Tribeca was awarded the Midsize SUV class.

Subaru car leasing prices on all the range are available off the site now.

Subaru Boxer Diesel

Subaru‘s widely acclaimed 2.0-litre Boxer diesel has now been teamed with the Imprezza 5-door hatchback to offer exceptional practicality. The 150PS diesel engine which has already been seen in the Legacy, Outback and Forester is now available in this new model.

This new addition to the range achieves 47.9mpg on the combined fuel cycle and has a CO2 rating of 155g/km. The low centre of gravity and Subaru’s Vehicle Dynamics Control offers exceptional handling and the car reaches 0-62 in 9.0 seconds and onto a top speed of 127mph.

The car has a good specification as well, offering 17-inch alloy wheels, HID headlamps with pop-up washers, electrically-folding door mirrors, front foglamps, 6CD player with MP3 facility, cruise control, windscreen wiper de-icer, climate control, front and side airbags plus heated sports seats.

The two model Imprezza diesel range, 2.0D RC and RX, now compliments the 1.5 and 2.0-litre petrol models, the 2.5 WRX turbo, plus range topping WRX STI Type UK and 330S. Subaru car leasing prices are available now with these new models coming onto the site shortly.
