It's absolutely incredible how Subaru can be so high on this list with their choice of engine style and transmission.
With that sort of handicap it's either a testament to how great Subaru is or how terrible every other automaker is.
- e-_pusher 3y agoWhat do you mean by this? What is wrong with the engine and transmission choice of Subaru that makes it a handicap?
- elsonrodriguez 3y agoHorizontally opposed engines are inherently less reliable due to the increase in components, an H-4 has two heads and all that entails, an I-4 has one. CVTs are inherently more fragile than a geared transmission, they simply cannot hold as much torque. Almost all Subarus sold in the last 3 years have these engines and transmissions and they still hang.
