The answer is that electric motors and ICEs don’t all make peak power at the same RPM. This car could be making close to 200hp for a much wider span of the rev range, depending on where each motor peaks.

I think you have a slight misunderstanding of the effect of preload & ride height adjustment done via a single adjustment spring perch collar... (FWIW I used to think about it the same way that you do - thinking that preload must be kept constant for a compliant ride and that ride height should be adjusted by…

Good visibility. My manual Subaru Forester doesn’t have Subaru EyeSight, but the ability to quickly check all blindspots / mirrors more than makes up for it.
I’ve got a ‘15 Forester, so certainly the same switchgear as most of those that you listed. The way it works is that if you turn on the car, turn on low beams, then turn off the car, the action of pulling the key out of the ignition will cause the low beams to automatically switch off.

Early S 997 models, too.
