Our newest car is a Subaru Forester XT (TURBO)
(Bloomberg) -- Tiny Subaru drew outsized accolades in the most recent Consumer Reports Top Picks survey, with three models winning their categories -- the most for a single carmaker since 2012.
Not bad for a lineup of only seven models.
Subaru’s Legacy sedan bumped off the venerable Honda Accord as the leader of the midsize car segment. The auto brand of Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd., known for its all-wheel-drive capability, also saw its Impreza notch a fourth year as the best compact car, while Forester again led the small SUV category after knocking out Honda’s CR-V in 2014.
Subaru’s trio in the influential magazine’s annual list is the most for any single brand since Toyota Motor Corp.’s namesake line dominated with five picks in 2012. There were 10 model categories this year, plus a Best Overall that was won by the Tesla Model S.
