2016 Subaru Ratings, Reviews and Awards
It's what's on the inside that counts, or at least, that seems to be the tactic Subaru took with its 2016 lineup of vehicles. For the 2016 model year, the brand made only small changes to its cars. The 2016 Outback got improved steering and a recalibrated suspension. Higher level Premium and Limited trims feature a Starlink safety and security package. The 2016 Legacy sees similar changes, with the addition of Starlink safety and security to Limited and Premium packages and an enhanced steering experience. The 2016 Crosstrek, Subaru's crossover SUV, gets a slight update when it comes to styling, notably in the form of interior LED lighting. PIN code access becomes a standard feature on Crosstrek models with push-button start. New safety features on Limited models include Rear Cross Traffic Alert and Blind Spot Detection. Subaru's BRZ, Impreza, and Forester remain unchanged from previous years.
