Here in New England, snow is a fact of life during the winter months. That's why it's so important to have a vehicle that can safely get you where you need to go, even when the roads are covered in snow and ice. And when it comes to driving in winter weather, it's hard to beat a Subaru.
At McGovern Subaru in Newington, NH, we're proud to offer a wide selection of Subaru vehicles that are engineered to take on tough winter conditions. Every Subaru comes standard with Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, which continuously powers all four wheels and automatically adjusts the traction distribution to provide optimal grip. If you're looking for a vehicle you can depend on to get you safely to work in Portsmouth, NH or to go skiing up in the White Mountains, a Subaru is the way to go.
Some of the Best Subaru Models for Winter Driving Include:
- Outback - With 8.7 inches of ground clearance, standard all-wheel drive, and the available X-MODE® traction control system, the Outback is a winter warrior that can power through deep snow with ease. It's a great choice if you frequently drive on back roads around Exeter, NH that may not get plowed right away.
- Forester - Like the Outback, the Forester comes standard with all-wheel drive and offers X-MODE® for even better traction in slippery conditions. With its higher ride height, the Forester can confidently handle snowy roads and parking lots in Rochester, NH.
- Crosstrek - The capable and compact Crosstrek is perfect for navigating narrow snow-covered streets in downtown Somersworth, NH. Its balanced all-wheel-drive system and nearly nine inches of ground clearance help keep you in control in wintry weather.
