You've seen the logo, the shiny chrome, deep blue, distinct design. But have you ever wondered what it is? You're certainly not alone! Back in the 1960s when Subaru's first made their way to America, they had a slightly different logo, one that's undergone 4 changes to make it what it is today.

I'm sure you've heard that Subaru vehicles are perfect for snowy and wet roads. They offer superior traction and handling, but if you're not sure what the difference between the Subaru system and others is, you're not alone.

The Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive Difference

Subaru's are known for their symmetrical all-wheel drive system standard on all models, except the BRZ. All-wheel drive is a system that delivers power to all four wheels of the vehicle, as opposed to front and rear-wheel drive set ups, that either deliver power to the front or rear wheels.

2017 was a good year Subaru. With sales rising higher than any year prior in the brand's history, the company and its dealerships were understandably happy. One of the big causes of Subaru's success? The Subaru Outback. It was one the manufacturer's best-selling vehicles in 2017. If the 2018 model is any indicator, this year will be another good one for the Outback.

If last year was any indicator, Subaru dealerships have a lot to look forward to in 2018. According to reports from Subaru of America, Subaru sales in 2017 exceeded sales in 2016, and substantially so. In 2016, Subaru dealerships reported selling a total of 615,132 vehicles. 2017's tally climbed to 657,958 cars; a jump of 5.4 percent.

The Subaru Crosstrek hasn't been around very long but has already made a name for itself as one of the most versatile crossover SUVs. And the 2018 Crosstrek is back with an all-new look and ready for more adventures. So what is new for the 2018 model year?

We are getting closer to meeting the all-new 2019 Subaru Ascent, the biggest Subaru ever. With flexible seating for up to eight passengers and plenty of adaptable cargo room for bigger family sized adventures.
