Subaru apparently won Consumer Reports' "most reliable" ranking this year? I had a WRX a while ago which was honestly, more powerful than any car I need. I know in Europe they've sold diesel Impreza models which get something like 40MPG which I would much rather have, but importing cars to the USA is a major headache, especially in California. Even after waiting 25+ years for the importing to be possible, there's EPA and emission standards which are potentially problematic.
OFC, if you're a rich car person, such legislation doesn't matter; as Doug Demuro recently reviewed a Xiaomi SU7 and mentioned that the CEO of Ford, Jim Farley is driving a Xiaomi SU7 as his personal vehicle. Which speaks volumes of how:
1. Laws don't apply to the rich.
2. The CEO of Ford, doesn't even drive a Ford; Ford's are trash cars.
(Ironically, a Ford Model T gets better MPG than most cars sold today.)
