“We at Subaru would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to our dedicated network of retailers who once again achieved record sales in November – marking 84 consecutive months of yearly, month-over-month sales increases – that’s seven years of sales increases,” said Thomas J. Doll, President and CEO of Subaru of America, Inc. “November was a special month for the Subaru brand as we continued to establish new month-over-month sales records, while also celebrating the return of our annual philanthropic Subaru Share the Love Event for its eleventh consecutive year.”

During the Share the Love Event, Subaru of America will donate $250 for every new Subaru vehicle purchased or leased through January 2, 2019 to the customer's choice of the following charities: The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals® (ASPCA®), Make-A-Wish®, Meals on Wheels America® and National Park Foundation or a pre-approved hometown charity selected by participating Subaru retailers. By the end of this year’s event, the automaker hopes to exceed a grand total of $140 million donated since the Subaru Share the Love Event started in 2008.

“Throughout November, we saw strong sales from the all-new 2019 Forester following its debut last month, as well as continued sales and momentum from the 2019 Ascent,” said Jeff Walters, Senior Vice President of Sales. “We look forward to closing out a strong year thanks to our class-leading SUV line-up.”
