Subaru BRZ Review The Subaru BRZ is a sports car that is jointly developed by Subaru and Toyota and alternatively sold as the Toyota 86. The development team was comprised of engineers from both companies and Toyota was specifically drawn to Subaru’s expertise in building horizontally-opposed engines with a low center of gravity that are ideal for use in sports cars.

Subaru Levorg Review The Subaru Levorg is a medium sized station wagon that has been in production since 2014. It aims to bridge the gap between the bigger sized Legacy Touring Wagon and the smaller sized Impreza. It is yet to make a proper entrance in Kenya due to the 8 year lag in used car imports but we predict it will do well given the popularity of both the Legacy and the Impreza. It’s smaller in length and wheelbase by 100mm and 50mm lower than the 5th generation Legacy Touring.

What sets the XV apart from its competitors is the ingenious Symmetrical All Wheel drive that gives it unparalleled off-road capability The interior of the XV has a modern feel with a well illuminated instrument cluster and dials that are within reach. The seats are well elevated which provides for a natural seating position and an excellent view of the road. At the first row, there is enough room for both driver and passenger to recline. At the second row, the legroom is good for the outer seats but the middle seat is cramped by the transmission tunnel. The Subaru XV…
