The 2010 Subaru Legacy and Subaru Outback are the Institute's newest Top Safety Pick award winners. To qualify for Top Safety Pick, a vehicle must earn the highest rating of good in the Institute's front, side, and rear tests and be equipped with electronic stability control. Criteria to win are tough because the award is intended to drive continued safety improvements such as top crash test ratings and the rapid addition of electronic stability control, which is standard on the Legacy and Outback.
"Recognizing vehicles at the head of the class for safety helps consumers distinguish the best overall choices without having to sort through multiple test results," says Institute president Adrian Lund.
Cherry Hill NJ, July 1, 2009 --
Subaru of America, Inc. today announced that it set a sales record for the month of June as sales were up 3-percent with 18,620 units sold in June 2009 versus 18,007 units sold in June 2008. Subaru sales for June 2009 also showed a 6-percent increase over May 2009 Subaru sales.
The 2009 Subaru Legacy sedan and Impreza vehicles each set sales records for the month. Subaru Legacy had a 28-percent increase in sales over June 2008, while Subaru Impreza sales were up 24-percent over last year's June sales, which represents the model's best ever monthly sales. The award-winning Subaru Forester recorded an increase in sales of 31-percent for the year to June resulting in its highest ever June-YTD sales.
On a YTD basis, the company reported sales of 93,306 units, which is a decline of just 1-percent of June 2008 sales of 94,095 units.
"The June sales record is a fitting close to a first half in which Subaru held record market share," said Tim Colbeck, senior vice president of sales, Subaru of America, Inc. "Our June results confirmed the strength of the Subaru brand, our AWD vehicles and the Subaru dealer network. With our product line-up firing on all cylinders, we expect to continue performing well as we begin to ship the new 2010 Legacy and Outback models this month."
