With Thanksgiving now in the rearview, the holiday shopping season is officially upon us. While coming away with the perfect gift can be a challenge, it helps to narrow your choices to a single field of interest. For the avid car lover on your list, adding some gear to their garage is a surefire way to make their nice list this year.
You don't need to go all-out — i.e. a brand new car sitting in the driveway with a giant bow on top — to appease the gearhead in your life. There are thousands of car accessories, tools, and cosmetic upgrades available, each a potential stocking stuffer. Courtesy of New Motors Subaru, here are eight great auto-themed gifts in 2023 that you should consider this holiday.
ThisWorx Car Vacuum Cleaner
Your vehicle deserves better than a cursory vacuuming at the car wash every other month. With this handy, lightweight accessory, which comes with a 16-foot power cord, you can clean out every hard-to-reach crevice of your car, keeping the interior fresh for yourself and your passengers year-round. The mini-vac utilizes cyclonic force and strong suction to completely clear dust and debris, and comes with three dynamic attachments: flathead, extendable, and brush nozzle.
Avid Power Cordless Tire Inflator
Your tires run a greater risk of deflation during the winter months, when every 10 degree drop outside could mean a loss of one or two PSI. Waiting for your low pressure light to alert you can be risky, as it can do so at any inopportune moment. Instead, monitor your tires more regularly throughout the winter, providing them with the appropriate amount of air when needed. Rather than waiting behind a line of cars at the gas station’s lone air pump, request this top-of-the-line portable tire inflator. With its 20V rechargeable Li-ion battery pack power supply, you won’t have to worry about deflated tires flattening your holiday travels.
The Sno Brum
The easiest, most effective way to clear heavy snow and ice from your windshield this winter is with an assist from the Sno Brum. With its push-broom design, the 28-to-63-inch extended reach handle enables you to reach every inch of your vehicle. The Sno Brum is engineered for safe snow removal thanks to its Polyethylene, non-abrasive foam head, designed to clear delicate surfaces without leaving scratches. This winter, make sure your morning commute doesn’t get derailed by the elements by keeping a Sno Brum in your car's trunk.
ZMoon OBD2 Scanner Diagnostic Tool
Though our Service Center is always open, sometimes you want the ability to diagnose minor vehicular issues yourself before hauling your car over to a garage for a professional opinion and its accompanying estimate. This convenient, entry-level diagnostic tool, which is directly powered by your car, allows you to view battery voltage, EVAP, engine coolant temperature, and many more readings. Your finger will be kept on the pulse of your vehicle and, when something goes awry, you'll be able to quickly identify and address the issue.
Jump-N-Carry JNC325 Jump Starter
These diminutive jumper cables are some of the best on the market when it comes to portability and accessibility. Consisting of just two buttons – power and override – the Jump-N-Carry JNC325 effortlessly charges most consumer vehicles with no hassle. With a 24-inch cable length, it’s compact enough to store in your trunk, ensuring that you won’t spend what's left of 2023 stuck on the side of the road.
Chemical Guys HOL169 Car Wash Kit
A home car wash kit is a guaranteed hit for any auto obsessive, but finding a kit that’s both comprehensive and reasonably priced can be challenging. This 16-piece set from Chemical Guys is the complete car washing experience broken down into 16 quality components. It includes a detailing bucket, wheel gel, glass cleaner, shine protectant, wet wax, a foam cannon, and much more. This holiday season, add a shiny swagger to your Subaru Outback with help from this thorough detailing kit.
Forza Motorsport
The latest entry in the acclaimed racing series Forza, Motorsport features over 500 cars and 20 new tracks. The Forza games have long been renowned for their dedication to realism and technical acumen, and this 13th edition in the series may be the most complete realization of that formula yet. Exclusive to XBox and PC, Forza Motorsport was recently named a Game Awards nominee for best sports/racing game of 2023.
Riparo Motorsports Men’s Half Mesh Leather Driving Gloves
With the recent surge in Formula One’s popularity, stylish driving is becoming the way to drive in America. These genuine leather, vintage driving gloves are perfect for the prospective racer in your family. The wrist straps snap comfortably into place, and they come in over a half-dozen color options. Feel free to donate your old gloves to a Salvation Army red bucket this Christmas, because once you strap these babies on, you won't want to take them off.
’Tis The Season
We're always in a giving spirit here at New Motors Subaru, thanks to our great selection of new and used vehicles, including the 2023 Subaru Ascent. Once you've checked every name off your shopping list, it's time to treat number one. Make it your New Year's resolution to get behind the wheel of a Subaru in 2024 and beyond!
