The Subaru Crosstrek continues to celebrate consecutive wins such as its back-to-back Best Subcompact SUV designation by AutoTrader, the third year in a row as the Canadian Black Book Best Retained Value in SUV: Main Sub-Compact category, and the eighth win in nine years as the best for Residual Value in the Small SUV segment in the J.D. Power 2024 Canada ALG Residual Value Awards.

The Forester continues to be a top pick for families, with a spacious interior, superb visibility, and top safety marks.

As the only all-electric offering, the Subaru Solterra boasts true SUV capability and everything one has come to expect from a Subaru, including a 2024 Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) TOP SAFETY PICK.
