​​Subaru Earns Three Spots on Car and Driver 2025 Editors’ Choice List​

April 10th, 2025 by

Subaru Outback Camping and Towing with AccessoriesSubaru has been on a hot streak. Not only has the all-new 2025 Forester been a massive success with both journalists and customers, but Car and Driver, one of the most respected automotive publications, has named three Subaru models to their 2025 Editors’ Choice List: the 2025 Subaru Crosstrek, BRZ, and Outback.  

What Is the Editors’ Choice List? 

Car and Driver’s The Editors’ Choice List allows buyers to easily navigate information about vehicles and newer models to make an informed decision more quickly. Sometimes, sifting through large amounts of information about cars you’re looking to buy can be frustrating and daunting, especially when it comes to comparing different trim levels. The magazine and this specific best list take some important research off your plate, especially when deciding between multiple Subaru models for your next vehicle.

When it comes to sports cars, the 2025 Subaru BRZ is one of the finest in the world. The editors of Car and Driver named it the best Affordable Sports Car thanks to its base MSRP of $32,380, standard manual transmission, and sporty suspension. The 2.4-liter SUBARU BOXER® outputs 228 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque. The magazine’s verdict says, “The BRZ brings driving fun and deft handling to the masses and manages decent practicality while it’s at it.” They also give the car a 10 out of 10 on the C/D Ratings.

One of the most versatile vehicles for buyers is the 2025 Subaru Crosstrek, especially with its standard Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive. Whether for a college student, a first-time buyer starting their journey through life, or even an empty nester looking for reliability, safety, and utility, there aren’t many vehicles that check all those boxes so easily. As the best-selling Subaru vehicle, the Crosstrek is the perfect car for so many. A base price of only $27,230 allows the Crosstrek to fit into many new car budgets. Car and Driver’s editors say that the Crosstrek has “road-trip friendly front seats,” “above-average off-road capability,” and that it has a “laid-back demeanor” that buyers can enjoy for years to come.

The 2025 Subaru Outback is the grown-up Subaru SUV that is also an Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) Top Safety Pick. With its $30,430 base price, the Outback is the right vehicle for those who need an SUV-like vehicle with car-like attributes and driving dynamics. The Outback has 8.7 inches of ground clearance (the Wilderness trim has 9.5 inches of clearance) but maintains a lower height to step in and out of the vehicle for the driver and passengers. This makes the Outback especially ideal for children and adults getting into the rear seats. With standard Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, the Outback can still take the roads less traveled with ease. Car and Driver’s verdict is simple: “Blending a crunchy, off-road flavored personality with a spacious interior and decent road manners, the Outback is a jack-of-most-trades at a reasonable price.”
