Startling New Subaru Developments Customers Need To Know About

There are new developments at Subaru that customers will want to know about. Check them here before you buy any new 2024 Subaru Outback, Crosstrek, Forester, or another Subaru model.

Two surprising developments are happening at Subaru now regarding the new 2024 Subaru Outback, Crosstrek, Forester, or another Subaru model that customers should know about. It could affect your decision on when to buy.

I keep customers informed on all Subaru models, and in this Subaru production report monthly, startling developments will affect customers this spring. If you are buying a new Subaru soon or thinking of buying this year, it's good news for shoppers. There are two reasons why it could be the best time to buy. Better than at any time in the last three years. 

Subaru production has increased substantially.

According to the recent Subaru Corporation production and export results report, Subaru's production in Japan, where they manufacture the Forester compact SUV, some Crosstrek subcompact SUV trim levels, Impreza compact hatch, WRX performance sedan and BRZ sport coupe, has increased significantly.

Subaru reports that Japan's production has increased 47.7 percent, the first increase in two months. That's a massive increase compared with prior months

At its U.S. plant, Subaru of Indiana Automotive (SIA), where they manufacture the Outback midsize SUV, Crosstrek subcompact SUV trims with the 2.5-liter engine, Ascent 3-Row family SUV, and Legacy midsize sedan, things look even better. 

Subaru reports that its U.S. production has increased 55.2 percent in its 12th consecutive month. 

Subaru Corpoation's export total to the U.S. and other global markets has increased by 8.5 percent, the first increase in three months. All good news for new Subaru all-wheel-drive models. Here's why.

Subaru dealers are willing to negotiate with buyers.

It hasn't always been this way, but Subaru dealers are offering more incentives now and will be willing to sell some Forester trims, Crosstrek, Outback, and other new all-wheel-drive models for less than MSRP.

Subaru of America's new offers reveal they are ready to deal.

MY TAKE

Subaru calls it their "Subaru A Lot To Love Event." If you are buying now, it's a good time, better than any time in the last three years. Subaru will likely keep the special deals listed above in place this spring. 

Although Subaru has not confirmed it, I'm going on what I've seen the Camden, N.J. automaker do recently. 

Subaru has never done this before.

It's the first-ever Subaru of America to offer special financing on the hot outdoor-themed 2024 Subaru Outback Wilderness trim level. If you have considered buying the rugged Wilderness, there's never been a better time. 

This is the latest information regarding the Subaru Forester, Outback, and Solterra. I'll keep you updated with any new information.

I have an Outback with 226k miles which I bought new. I live in northern Minnesota and given I am a wildlife naturalist which means being off the grid on remote dirt roads, it may be time to replace my wheels. I normally pay cash, but a 1.9% interest rate is essentially free money. However given the increasing manufacturing rates and the high price of new cars, I wonder if deals might get better on the Outback.
