This had been long rumored, and it now appears to be true. Expect better fuel mileage and a higher torque capacity than what is available with the current Subie automatics.

FHI will commence use of its newly developed chain belt type CVT in the next-generation Legacy, which is due to hit the market next year. The new transmission, which will be coupled with FHI’s distinctive boxer engine and all-wheel drive system, will be able …

Rumors that Toyota will market its Subaru co-developed rear-wheel-drive coupe as a Scion in America have been swirling around the net ever since the two Japanese automakers made their plans official this spring. But now we’ve received word that it’s true. According to our inside source, Toyota officials in the U.S. confirmed that the affordable RWD coupe will indeed arrive in the States in late-2010 / early-2011 as the new Scion TC. Further details …

Meet the Subaru Dex, the latest in a long line of deliciously quirky Japanese "height wagons." Fresh on the street in Tokyo, the Dex is a new 1.3-liter Scion-type entry for Subaru aimed squarely at Japan’s fun-loving Generation Y.

Except that, beneath the skin, the Dex is not actually that new at all. It’s essentially a Subaru version of Toyota’s bB, a compact box wagon launched in Japan way back in 2005. The front end has been restyled with new headlights, grille, hood and fender …

Bling it On: Special Edition Diamond-studded Subaru car

Embellishing the vehicles with gold, diamond and precious stones does help to exhibit your opulence on the roads. The car has been festooned with 1173 inlaid precious stones, with a total weight of 19.35 carats. The diamonds alone achieve 12.37 carats of weight. The diamond studded logo, joystick and the key chain are a real treat to the eyes of the bling lovers. I couldn’t make much out of the translated page, but they seem to …

The Thunderstorm Is Part Geo Storm, Part Subaru Brat, 100% Awesome

As much as we may be inclined to mock the Thunderstorm, which combines the nose and a powertrain of a Geo Storm with the rear end of a Subaru Brat and was constructed with an impressive level of parts-bin rummaging, we’re in awe of how cool it actually is. The Thunderstorm is up for sale due to the "RECENT PASTING" of the seller’s deceased "BELOVED HUSBAND" and has the …

Subaru based Saab strikes back!

Subaru Tribeca based Saab 9-6X

Patent filed for DOA Tribeca-based Saab 9-6X

It takes no stretch of the imagination to look at the freshened Subaru Tribeca and see a stillborn Saab 9-6x. The grille and the headlamps may be slightly different from what a Saab version of Subaru’s biggest crossover would wear, but if you park your Tribeca next to a 9-5, you’ll notice the resemblance immediately.

All the work had been done to morph the Tribeca into a Saab variant, and then General Motors decided to sell its …
