Subaru has also achieved the highest profit margins. Even better than the profit champions such as Jaguar Land Rover and Porsche when there was a good dollar-to-yen exchange rate.

Subaru’s largest market is the U.S. aROUND 99.3 Subaru’s sold in the U.S are equipped with company’s Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive. The company is likely to sell more cars this year.

Subaru heavily depends on the U.S market. Around 60 percent of the all-wheel-drive vehicles sold were delivered to the U.S. The European market is not so profitable for the Japanese company as it sells way fewer cars than the U.S market.
