Through the first four months of 2026, Kia has moved 279,718 units, a 2 percent gain over the same period in 2025 and a new year-to-date sales record for the brand.</p> https://automobilist.org/subaru-of-america-reports-52733-units-in-april-2026-as-ev-family-posts-best-month-ever/ Fri, 01 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://automobilist.org/subaru-of-america-reports-52733-units-in-april-2026-as-ev-family-posts-best-month-ever/ <p>Subaru of America sold 52,733 vehicles in April 2026, a 5.9 percent decline versus April 2025, continuing a year-to-date pattern that has the brand trailing prior-year totals by 12.7 percent through the first four months — 194,683 units against 222,968 a year ago. The headline numbers are soft, but the model-level story is more selective than the aggregate suggests.</p> <p>Forester held the volume lead for the fourth consecutive month, moving 17,837 units. Crosstrek posted its best April ever at 15,667 units, up 4.9 percent year-over-year. Outback, at 10,552 units, remains a stable contributor despite an 8.3 percent monthly decline and a steep 26.9 percent YTD shortfall — a number that warrants attention as one of the brand&rsquo;s historically strongest nameplates.</p>
