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.

Few things are as frustrating for a driver as realising your car doesn't have as much power as it should. Small changes in performance matter and are most noticeable during acceleration. Your car may suddenly lose and then regain power or feel sluggish all the time; either way, it's clear there's something wrong.A loss of power can often be traced back to a problem in the fuel system, such as a clogged fuel filter, faulty injectors or a malfunctioning MAF sensor. Running a cleaning additive through the system every so often can help prevent issues like these from developing. However, the fuel system isn't always to blame. As discussed in this guide, an ECU error or a clogged catalytic converter can also make your car lose power - that's why you should take note of any other symptoms that could help pinpoint the cause. These may include unusual exhaust smoke (blue, white or black) and rough idling.
