Subaru is known for using the innovative boxer engine, named for the horizontal movement of the pistons - almost like a boxer throwing punches. The flat layout of this engine provides better fuel efficiency, and its low centre of gravity makes it more responsive. In the 2020 Driver Power Survey, Subaru was voted the best manufacturer for safety features for the second year running. And it isn't just cars that Subaru manufactures - it also has an aerospace division that develops and creates parts for planes, including Boeing's 777 and 787 passenger jets.

Diesel engine repair jobs are often more expensive than petrol, although diesel cars are more reliable and economical over long distances.
