subaru legacy / outback facelift

Subaru started out as "The Aircraft Research Laboratory" in 1917 headed by Chikuhei Nakajima. Then in 1931, the company was reorganized as "Nakajima Aircraft Co., Ltd", designer of the infamous Zero fighter. At the end of the Second World War, Nakajima Aircraft was again reorganized, this time as Fuji Sangyo Co, Ltd. In 1946, Fuji Sangyo created its first Rabbit motor scooter with spare aircraft parts from the war (see picture on right). In 1950, Fuji Sangyo was divided into 12 smaller corporations according to the 1950 Corporate Credit Rearrangement Act, but between 1953-1955, four of these corporations and a newly formed corporation formed by an alliance of the four aforementioned companies were again merged together to form the Fuji Heavy Industries we know today.

From 1954 to 1989 the company designed and manufactured dozens of vehicles including the P1 (1954), the 360 (1958), the Sambar (1961), the 1000 (1965), the 1100 and the R2 (1969), the Leone (1971, 1975 and 1977), the Domingo (1983), the Alcyclone (1985) and the Legacy (1989).

In the 1990's the company moved away from small commercial vehicles and concentrated on the development of rally car models including the SVX (1991), the Vivio and the Impreza (1992). However in 1995 the company created the Sambar EV electric van. In 1997 the Forester was introduced to the world market, followed by a new design of the Legacy vehicle (1998)

Toyota announced a contract with Japanese rival Subaru on March 13, 2006. The under-used Subaru of Indiana Automotive plant in Lafayette will hire up to 1,000 workers and set aside an assembly line for Camry, beginning in spring 2007.General Motors was a 20% minority shareholder of Fuji Heavy from 1999 until 2005 when they sold 8.7% to Toyota and put the rest on the open market.

Oricum.. VW a evoluat mult de la broscuta la Passat, insa sa nu exageram; din pct de vedere tehnologic as alege oricand Subaru vs VW; pacat ca Subaru nu are motorizari Diesel inca.

Ok sorry! la capitolul istorie chiar nu stiam asta insa Subaru este o marca mediocra la noi in Euopa deoarece sufera la capitolele taxe vamale( +30% pt ce este facut in afra UE) si motoare diesel!!!!!!!
A si ca fapt divers VW a fost creatia lui Ferdinand Porsche cel care a dat nastere la o gama atre de tancuri in WWII.

domnu sunteti pe dinafara rau de tot ...
