Love continues to be electric at Dalton Subaru. The 2024 Subaru has arrived at Dalton Subaru National City. Subaru has made several enhancements to the 2024 Solterra Model… A new squared-off oval-shaped steering wheel is said to provide a better view of the SUV’s digital gauge display, and new paddles mounted on the back of the spokes allow the driver to make changes to the SUV’s regenerative braking system on the fly. The Solterra’s suite of driver-assistance features adds a low-speed hands-free driving mode, automatic lane-changing capability, and an intersection collision detection system. Subaru also says that improvements to the battery warming system aid charging in cold weather.

A magical March! Dalton Subaru, Subaru of America and Humble Design teamed up together to help jazz up and furnish a families home coming out of homelessness in Chula Vista, CA.

Subaru Loves to Help and by reaching into our local community we’re able to help forge a brighter path for a young growing family.

By providing a furnished home, the family coming out of homelessness feels more dignified and considerably cuts the rate of falling back into a pattern of fall-out. For this particular theme, the Humble Designers went with an airy open decoration with light oranges, teals and alot of white.

We’d like to thank everyone who continues to support Dalton Subaru and we look forward to representing you all in our upcoming community missions!

Customer Yelp Review – Thank you for taking the time to share your positive experience with us!

Just bought a new Crosstrek here and let me tell you about my fantastic experience! My sales rep was Nancita W., and her knowledge of all the models and features was fantastic. I had never owned/ridden in one before and was looking for a “compact” type SUV. (I had stopped by 4 other nearby brand dealerships prior to stopping here as well.)

We looked at several new models and test drove them. When I asked about certified used vehicles, she hunted them down on the lot to show me and discuss features. She knew these vehicles inside and out and her passion and knowledge as a long time Subaru owner really sold me. I had not at all expected to buy that day, and in fact, had planned on negotiating any vehicle I was interested in from home but I felt so comfortable with Nancita (who also guided me through a lot of the paperwork) that I really wanted to do the deal with her, for a new 2024 vehicle on the lot.

I can’t recommend her enough! She even introduced me to the service team and walked me to the service area so I would know where to go and what to expect for my first oil change! And also prepped my car to perfection when I picked it up and had the seat adjusted lower, which I had made a casual comment about earlier in the day. It’s these small details of customer service that probably impressed me the most. And shout out to Jimmy in management and Jay in Finance who made me feel comfortable and were patient with my questions.

This dealership is a 100+ out of 10 especially with such great sales reps like Nancita! Clearly they know how to hire honest, patient, knowledgeable and hard working (!!) people. Don’t be afraid to come in and look around. Thank you for my new Crosstrek, I’m excited about the years of fun adventures that we’ll share.


Dalton Subaru is providing comfort, hope, and confidence to children in South Bay San Diego who are in need.

Imagine having to go without proper fitting shoes and socks on a regular basis. For millions of children and adults experiencing homelessness and other urgent need situations across the country and even here in San Diego County, this can be a harsh reality.

Helping others is the key to a strong community which is why Dalton Subaru believes in helping to
support individuals and families in urgent need. And this year, during Subaru Loves to Help® month, we joined Subaru and retailers nationwide in partnering with Operation Warm, a national nonprofit focused on connecting children with the resources they need to thrive. This partnership will continue to amplify our support for those who need it most.

On February 28, 2024 Dalton Subaru hosted an Operation Warm Event with SBCS to provide children in urgent need with brand-new shoes, socks and warm coats.

These essential items not only help keep children protected, warm, and dry, they can have a significant impact on a child’s mental and emotional well-being. These items can mean the difference between going to school or not; between participating in activities or sitting out. No child should ever have to face these circumstances.

That’s why Subaru and its retailers like us are proud to be the largest automotive supporter of Operation Warm. Through this partnership and other historical Subaru Loves to Help efforts, Subaru and our retailers will have helped more than 750,000 children and adults in urgent need so far.

This initiative is part of the Subaru Love Promise, our commitment to improving lives in the communities where we live and work. And it’s just one of the reasons why Dalton Subaru is more than a car dealer and Subaru is More Than a Car Company®

Meet Mini

Feb 29, 2024

December was filled with delight for Sylvia and family when she went out and adopted Mini on December 11th, 2023 from the El Cajon Humane Society.

Mini had just turned 4 years old and was 1.5lbs over her 3lb weight limit. Her paws couldn’t with stand her weight and they rubbed rough against the friction of daily walks. However, after adoption, Mini has turned the corner and healed her paws and is treated like a total Princess!

Hooray for adopting Mini! Thanks for sharing your story with us while during your Subaru Service with Dalton Subaru. We hope you get to enjoy our on-site Dog Park!

This 2023 Subaru WRX Limited includes the Dalton Performance Package. While true this build is more of an aesthetic build, a lot of the exterior features are functional while adding sporty flare.

One of the benefits of driving a pre-build with the accessories already included saves time on your part, labor, tool set-up and Subaru spec know-how. However, if you’ve got the project builder in you, our Parts Team is more than ready to help you choose the exact Subaru accessories to help get your project off the ground.

This particular WRX build is equipped with Subaru OEM and STi parts all official and tinted windows. The great thing about an accessorized Subaru from Dalton Subaru is the warranty options you get right off the bat vs doing the build at home.
