The Car Connection Names Best Car To Buy 2019: Subaru Forester

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 12, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- The Car Connection (www.thecarconnection.com), the easiest place to research and shop for cars online, today named the 2019 Subaru Forester as its Best Car To Buy 2019.

Related auto enthusiast brands Motor Authority (www.motorauthority.com) and Green Car Reports (www.greencarreports.com) also named the winners of their Best Car To Buy Awards. The Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 took the title of Motor Authority Best Car To Buy 2019, while the Tesla Model 3 was named the Green Car Reports Best Car To Buy 2019.

Subaru Forester: Value & Virtue

The Car Connection's expert editors chose the Subaru Forester from a competitive field of nominees. Contenders were new or fully redesigned models that achieved top scores in The Car Connection's unique "TCC Rating" system.

The 10-point TCC Rating rolls up scores given to each vehicle across six categories including safety, comfort and utility, fuel economy, performance, and styling.

"The Subaru Forester owns all its rivals with value, value, value. For less than $30,000, families get exceptional interior space, faultless all-wheel-drive traction, and a long-standing, long-deserved reputation for safety and durability," said Marty Padgett, Editorial Director of The Car Connection, Motor Authority, and Green Car Reports. "There's not an ounce of revolution in the Forester – just virtue, across the board."

Chevrolet Corvette ZR1: Savagely Capable

Performance and luxury brand Motor Authority named the Chevy Corvette ZR1 as its Best Performance/Luxury Car To Buy 2019. Editors selected the winner from new or redesigned luxury/performance vehicles made available for testing. The winner is judged to have the strongest appeal to enthusiasts with acceleration, handling, styling, and features – as well as value.

"If there's something the mighty ZR1 can't do on a track, we don't know what it is," Padgett said. "Its massively powerful supercharged V-8 rips off menacing acceleration runs, and its track-tuned suspension and tires reel out extra-sensory grip. The body's a teenage fever dream and the interior's iffy at half the price, but the Corvette ZR1 makes up for it all in its savage driving talent."

Tesla Model 3: Controversial Yet Commendable

Green Car Reports, a destination for green cars, electric cars, fuel-efficient cars and hybrid cars, named the Tesla Model 3 as its Best Green Car To Buy 2019. Editors chose the most significant new green car made widely available to shoppers during the 2019 model year, taking into account new technologies, their practicality, and their impact on the environment.

"Tesla thrives in the media spotlight, and the attention isn't all good," Padgett said. "But Twitter-driven mania can't dim the success the Model 3 consolidates: a nationwide high-speed charging network, a diehard fan base willing to wait years for their new electric car, and the best power management of all the electric cars sold in America."
