Subaru grew from Fuji Heavy Industries’ aircraft heritage into a niche AWD specialist. Horizontally opposed engines and standard all-wheel drive on most models define the brand, with Outback, Forester, and WRX carrying that identity in the U.S. Used buyers often look to Subaru for weather capability and longevity when maintained.
