2010 Subaru Outback
|
It was a “three-peat” in the winners’ circle as the Subaru Outback Wagon once again brought home Vincentric’s Best Value in America award for 2010. The key factor in its victory was the lowest depreciation rate in the segment, providing the Outback the foundation to have ownership costs almost 4% lower than expected.
