Subaru Comes Out On Top In 2008
AutoNews
In a time where even Toyota is reported their first operational loss in seven decades, Subaru is reporting that they will be coming out on top in 2008 as far as sales numbers go. Subaru's executive VP Tom Doll has announced that sales in 2008 were up 1.2%, which is a huge achievement when compared to the slump the majority of other automakers are in. Doll is reported that these figures were achieved without any discounts or drastic measures to try to lure in new customers, and his belief is that Subaru customers are "better financially heeled than other car customers." Definitely a bold statement to make, but one that seems well deserved given their year-end numbers.
