How Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive Handles Seasonal Changes
Delaware's mixed four-season climate brings unpredictable weather, from sudden summer downpours to slick winter slush. For drivers navigating the unpaved farm lanes and muddy paths around Camden, having a permanent, full-time traction system is essential. Unlike slip-and-grip systems that only engage after a wheel loses traction, Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive continuously sends power to all four wheels. This design optimizes power distribution, instantly delivering torque to the wheels with the best grip to maintain vehicle stability on wet or uneven roads.
This advanced drivetrain is standard equipment on almost every model we sell, including the versatile crossover wagon lineup. For example, the conventional powertrain features a 2.5L engine producing 180 hp and 178 lb-ft of torque, mated to a smooth Lineartronic CVT for efficient daily driving. For those seeking quicker acceleration and enhanced towing capability, select trims offer a turbocharged 2.4L engine that generates 260 hp and 277 lb-ft of torque. This powerful engine pairs with either a standard Lineartronic CVT or a High-torque Lineartronic CVT on the rugged Wilderness and premium Touring XT trims to maximize control under heavy loads.
Our team is committed to making this capability accessible to everyone in our community. You can easily get pre-approved for financing online to streamline your purchase process. We are proud to participate in our eco-friendly retailer program, reflecting our dedication to environmental responsibility. Additionally, to serve all of our neighbors, we are a proud concesionario que habla español, ensuring clear and transparent communication throughout your entire dealership experience.

Comparing Family Value in the 2027 Subaru Ascent and 2026 Outback Trims
Choosing between a versatile crossover wagon and a spacious three-row SUV often comes down to seating capacity and daily cargo demands. The 2027 Subaru Ascent starts at $40,795 MSRP and comes equipped with standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, a powerful 260-horsepower turbocharged engine, and the comprehensive EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology suite. Available in 7- or 8-passenger configurations, the Ascent features a standard 11.6-inch high-resolution touchscreen to keep your family connected. According to the J.D. Power 2026 U.S. Initial Quality Study, the Ascent earned top honors in the Upper Midsize SUV category, and it has also secured a TOP SAFETY PICK+ rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, making it an exceptional choice for growing families.

The mid-tier Premium trim starts at $34,995 MSRP with a $1,450 destination charge, offering a balance of modern comfort features at an affordable price point.

Why Certified Pre-Owned Subarus Offer Smart Value for value-focused Shoppers
Savvy buyers often look to the pre-owned market to secure advanced safety features and all-wheel-drive capability at a lower initial cost. Choosing a vehicle from the Subaru Certified Pre-Owned program provides the ideal combination of used-car savings and new-car peace of mind. This long-term reliability is backed by a remarkable industry standard: 97% of vehicles sold in the last 10 years are still on the road today. Additionally, the Forester was ranked number one for 2025 Projected Value Resale among compact SUVs by J.D. Power, highlighting the exceptional long-term financial value of these vehicles.
Every certified pre-owned vehicle must pass a rigorous 152-point safety inspection conducted by factory-trained technicians. This comprehensive evaluation covers major vehicle systems including the engine, transmission, steering, suspension, brakes, and electrical components, along with a detailed review of interior and exterior conditions. Any component that does not meet strict manufacturer standards is repaired or replaced using genuine OEM parts before the vehicle can be certified.
Once certified, these vehicles come with a factory-backed 7-year/100,000-mile powertrain coverage with a $0 deductible on covered repairs. This package also includes 24/7 roadside assistance, a detailed CARFAX® Vehicle History Report, and a three-month trial subscription to SiriusXM®. You can read our certified pre-owned FAQ to learn more about the program's specific benefits, or browse our dealership blog for helpful car-buying tips.

Q: What does the standard Subaru factory warranty cover for new vehicles?
New vehicles are backed by a 3-year or 36,000-mile limited warranty that covers most vehicle components against defects, alongside a 5-year or 60,000-mile powertrain warranty for the engine and transmission. These factory warranties help protect your investment and keep your long-term ownership costs highly predictable.
