I strongly disagree with this
I strongly disagree with this analysis. The new turbo is noisy and the drive characteristics are not smooth compared to the 3.6R drivability. The lack of no engine stop feature makes city driving awful. Our mileage calculations after using a week long loaner Did Not offer superior fuel mileage. Both my wife and sons prefer our 2019 3.6R. Our 2019 is the third 3.6 we’ve owned. Discontinuing the 3.6 is a great loss to the Subaru engine choices
