Choosing a used car can be a daunting task. With so many options available, it's crucial to consider factors beyond just price. In the Bristol area, where unpredictable weather and challenging road conditions are common, all-wheel drive and robust reliability become paramount. This is where Subaru shines, offering a compelling advantage over Honda.


All-Wheel Drive Dominance:

  • Subaru's Legacy: Subaru is synonymous with all-wheel drive (AWD). Their Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system is standard on nearly every model, providing superior traction and handling in rain, snow, and even on muddy country roads.  

  • Honda's Limited AWD: While Honda offers AWD on some models, it's often an optional extra and not always as sophisticated as Subaru's system. This can significantly impact performance in challenging weather conditions.

      Unmatched Reliability:

      • Subaru's Proven Track Record: Subaru consistently ranks high in reliability surveys. Their engines and transmissions are known for their durability and longevity, minimizing the risk of costly repairs down the line.
         
      • Honda's Strong Reputation (But Not Always Top Tier): Honda has a strong reputation for reliability, but it doesn't always surpass Subaru. In some areas, Subaru has demonstrated superior long-term dependability.


Unmatched Warranty Coverage


One of the most compelling reasons to purchase a new Subaru from Schaller Subaru is their exclusive 10-year, 150,000-mile powertrain warranty. This offer is unrivaled in the market, providing peace of mind and exceptional value. Unlike many other warranties that come with strings attached, Schaller Subaru's warranty is straightforward and comprehensive, covering critical components of your new Subaru for an extended period. This means you can enjoy the thrill of driving a new car without worrying about potential costly repairs in the future.



Safety First:

  • Subaru's Commitment to Safety: Subaru vehicles consistently score high in safety tests, with advanced features like EyeSight driver-assist technology becoming standard across their lineup.  
  • Honda's Strong Safety Record: Honda also prioritizes safety, but Subaru often leads the pack in terms of innovation and standard safety features.

Versatility for Bristol Lifestyles:

  • Subaru's Outdoor Focus: Bristol's proximity to the countryside and opportunities for outdoor recreation make Subaru's rugged and capable vehicles ideal. From weekend adventures to daily commutes on challenging roads, Subaru offers the versatility you need.
  • Honda's Focus on Comfort and Efficiency: While Honda excels in comfort and fuel efficiency, it may not be as well-suited to the demands of Bristol's families on the go.



Resale Value:

  • Subaru's Strong Holding Value: Subaru vehicles tend to retain their value well, making them a smart investment. This can be particularly beneficial when it comes time to trade in or sell your used Subaru.
  • Honda's Competitive Resale: Honda also boasts strong resale value, but Subaru often holds its edge in this area.

For Bristol drivers seeking a reliable, safe, and capable used car, Subaru presents a compelling advantage over Honda. Subaru's standard AWD, renowned reliability, and focus on safety and outdoor capability make them an excellent choice for navigating the diverse terrain and unpredictable weather of the region.
