Subaru vehicles are primarily manufactured in Japan, by the Subaru Corporation, previously known as Fuji Heavy Industries. This automotive manufacturer has its headquarters in Ebisu, Tokyo. Subaru's history dates back to the early 20th century, but it officially became Subaru Corporation in 2017. It is renowned for its use of the boxer engine layout in most of its vehicles above 1500 cc and its symmetrical all-wheel drive-train layout since 1972. Additionally, Subaru has a notable production facility in the United States, specifically in Lafayette, Indiana, where models like the Subaru Legacy and the Outback are produced for the North American market. Subaru's production reflects its commitment to safety, performance, and reliability, winning the brand a global following.

Yes, insurance premiums can be higher on leased vehicles compared to those that are financed or owned outright. This difference is largely because leasing companies often require a higher level of coverage, including comprehensive and collision insurance, as well as higher liability limits than what your state's minimum may dictate. This ensures that the leased vehicle is fully protected in case of an accident, theft, or total loss. To mitigate these costs, it's advisable to shop around for competitive insurance rates and inquire about any discounts for which you might be eligible. Additionally, maintaining a good driving record can help keep your premiums as low as possible.

To engine brake in an automatic transmission vehicle, shift down a gear at a time. Modern automatics often feature a manual or semi-manual mode, indicated by 'M' or '+' and '-' symbols. Start by gently slowing down using the brake, then engage the manual mode. Select a lower gear suitable for your speed—this will engage the engine braking mechanism. Engine braking in an automatic is smoother and less pronounced compared to a manual transmission. It's particularly useful on long descents to prevent brakes from overheating or in situations requiring gradual deceleration. However, use it judiciously to avoid unnecessary strain on the transmission. Always consult your vehicle's manual to understand the specifics of using engine brake with its transmission system and ensure it's designed to handle such operations safely.
