MISSISSAUGA, ON--Feb. 12, 2014: Subaru Canada, Inc.

For the fifth year in a row, the Subaru Outback sport utility wagon has claimed the CBB Best Retained Value Award in the mid-sized car segment.

The Best Retained Value Awards acknowledge vehicles that retain the highest percentage of their original MSRP after four years. Widely acknowledged as Canada's go-to provider of present and future vehicle values, CBB distributes its values in various formats to dealers, insurance companies and financial institutions as well as consumers on its website, Canadian Black Book.
