Award-Winning Subaru Models

ABOUT THE REVIEWERS:

autoTRADER.ca looks at awards through a car buyer’s perspective. That’s why every single new car that is available for Canadians to buy today is eligible for an award — that means we consider and evaluate more than 350 models! Other awards only look at cars that were redesigned for the year, but that excludes some excellent options and we think knowing all the options makes for a more informed and confident car buyer. We have the most comprehensive and practical automotive awards in Canada: Our jury is a diverse group of more than 20 expert automotive journalists who evaluate hundreds of cars according to 12 different criteria to help you make more confident decisions when buying your next car.
