The Serra Subaru Blog

There are two decades of Subaru Outbacks.

One of the things they all have in common is that they continue to improve on previous versions.

The 2020 model is the latest in a long line of safe, reliable Subaru vehicles.

Let’s take a look at seven things to love about the Outback.

1. Exterior design

The look of the 2020 Subaru Outback is staying the same – and that’s a great thing.

After all, Subie fans love the distinctive shape and raised height of their favorite vehicle.

2. Visibility

The design gives passengers a great view of what’s…

There’s a lot to love about Subaru.

Superior safety ratings and care for local communities are just the tip of the iceberg.

One of the aspects Subaru is most proud of is concern for the environment.

Let’s take a look at Subaru sustainability.

Vehicle production

Manufacturing vehicles takes a massive amount of energy and resources.

Subaru believes that it’s car makers’ responsibility to reduce the impact of the vehicles they’re producing as much as possible.  

Recycling

The Earth-conscious engineers at Subaru have found a way to recycle everything they can, including:

• Bumpers.

• Steel.

• Shredder dust.

• Airbags…

The 2020 Subaru Legacy is the 7th generation of this all-wheel-drive sedan.

That’s nothing to sneeze at.

This latest offering is the best of both worlds: More power with a price tag that’s pretty darn close to last year’s version.

Let’s take a closer look at what the latest Subaru Legacy brings to the table.

Price

The base model starts out at $23,645 and tops out at $36,795. 

That’s an increase of only $200 over the 2019 model.

The open road.

The fresh breeze.

The music blaring.

These are just some of the perks of summertime and the open road.

But there’s a nasty side to nicer weather and driving your car.

And that’s the dirt, bugs and grime.

On your windshield, they’re a nuisance and a potential safety hazard.

A shiny and bright windshield

Here’s how to care for the windshield to keep your vision clear.

Step #1- Grab the supplies to wash…

The warm weather brings an increase in animal activity.

While deer pose the most risk for you as you’re cruising the roads, other animals may unceremoniously meet their fate during an encounter with your vehicle.

Here’s what you should do if you collide with a deer or other animal.

Stop your vehicle.

Even if another car causes you to swerve and you hit a deer as a result, you should stop the car.

Remain at the scene.
