CAMDEN, N.J., August 27, 2026 /3BL/ - Subaru of America, Inc. (SOA) today announced Treasure Valley Subaru, located in Boise, ID, as the winner of the 2026 Subaru Love Promise® Retailer of the Year Award, recognizing the retailer for their deeply personal approach to embracing the [Subaru Love Promise](https://www.subaru.com/love-promise.html). The award is presented annually to one Subaru retailer (within the automaker’s network of over 640 retailers) who has made a significant commitment to their customers and their community throughout the year, going above and beyond in their efforts to be More Than a Car Dealer®.

**Rob Studebaker, General Manager of Treasure Valley Subaru:** “The Subaru Love Promise inspires me each day to empower our employees in their own personal lives, and to elevate the customer experience for everyone walking through our doors. Together, we are focused on the larger purpose of supporting our community and we know that by approaching every interaction with compassion and empathy, we are making a measurable difference with our charitable partners and the many lives they impact each day.”  
  
When [Treasure Valley Subaru](https://www.tvsubaru.com/about-us/) opened as a standalone retailer in 2020, they went all-in on a brand new 54,000 square foot facility, complete with off-road test track, dog park, and 48 service bays, knowing that their dedication to the Love Promise would deliver. Their team has always believed that leading with compassion and empathy will inherently improve the bottom line, ultimately providing more sustainable opportunities to help those in need, and over the last six years their sales have nearly tripled.
