Is a Subaru a good first car?
I’m a little worried about my teen’s first car—I want it to be safe and practical, but I know that it needs to be fun, too. What about Subarus? Would a Subaru be a good car for a first-time driver?

It’s great that you’re considering all of those aspects for your teen’s first car! Generally, a
Subaru
would make a good first car. With excellent safety ratings, affordable ownership costs—including car insurance
—and modern sensibilities, Subarus are a solid choice for your teen.Here are a few models to consider:
- Subaru WRX(MSRP $30,600): The turbocharged engine on this sport compact has a little extra power for teens who want an exciting vehicle
- Subaru Forester(MSRP $27,070): Comfortable two-row SUV with an outdoorsy vibe and great visibility for drivers, plus Subaru’s EyeSight suite of driver-assist features
- Subaru Impreza(MSRP $20,290): Affordable price, all-wheel drive, hatchback for extra storage, five-star safety rating
