Subaru's Indiana assembly plant has completed it's third year of producing Outbacks and Forresters and not one single bit of trash has left the factory. The Indiana plant was designed to re-use, recycle, or generate energy from 100% of it's waste.Additionally, the area around the plant is also restored wildlife habitat and many of the vehicles produced at the plant are low-pollution, "partial zero emissions vehicles." That doesn't mean that they're low-carbon though. Subaru is still on the low end of the scale when it comes to vehicle mileage. But we're happy to give credit where it's due.
