Subaru Corp.’s U.S. winning streak is getting more expensive to maintain. That means buyers frustrated by long lines and a lack of deal-making on Outbacks or Foresters are in line for relief. The Japanese maker of rugged wagons and all-wheel-drive passenger cars hoisted its 64th consecutive monthly sales gain in March, but the company had to ratchet up discounts to notch an 11% gain amid a wider market decline and rising dealer stocks.

When Subaru revealed the next generation Crosstrek, known as the XV in Europe, at the Geneva show, the company only announced the inclusion of a CVT. Fortunately, American Crosstrek buyers will still have the option to operate a clutch and shifter for themselves. It even comes with an extra gear compared with the previous generation, for a total of six cogs. The 6-speed manual will be standard equipment on base and Premium Crosstrek 2.0i models. Read More →

Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd. has a new, albeit familiar, name. Effective April 1, the maker of Subaru vehicles will be known as Subaru Corp. The move, announced last May, is meant to bolster branding at a company that makes everything from industrial products to helicopters but draws the vast majority of its cash from Subaru vehicles.

While I was more than happy with the amount of power in the latest Toyota-badged Toyobaru, the 2017 Toyota 86, I realize that its continued existence relies on the approval of the masses who aren’t me. Those masses would really appreciate it if Subaru’s STi branch slapped a turbo on that lil’ 205 horsepower flat-four. If you like the Toyobaru twins at all, you should probably join in the calls for the same thing. Read More →
