Subaru shows the future

Posted on Thursday, 11 October 2007 08:10AM by Sales Department
Subaru highlights at the 2007 Tokyo Motor Show, held in late October/early November, include a stylish seven-seater Exiga Concept car which resembles a larger Legacy estate. The Exiga Concept not only comfortably accommodates seven adults thanks to compact engine/transmission packaging but also offers exhilarating performance from its 2.0 litre turbocharged ‘boxer’ engine mated to a 5-speed automatic gearbox and all-wheel drive transmission.

Subaru also displayed for the first time an environmentally-friendly electric car which is unusual in being a full five-seater despite compact dimensions. Called G4e Concept, it is fitted with the next generation lithium-ion batteries stored underneath the floor. Its triangle-shaped body is exceptionally attractive and Subaru’s owners, Fuji Heavy Industries, expects the car to have a 200 kilometre range per charge thanks to its light weight and high-performance, next-generation batteries.
