Motor sport was born on public roads with city-to-city endurance races, then flat-out sprints that evolved into grands prix. But in more than a century of the format, we’ve never seen a street circuit like this: constructed in one of the world’s most tightly-packed megacities, racing along the waterfront and bringing off-road competition to the heart of Hong Kong. This weekend’s World Rallycross season finale is breaking new ground — using 2000 cubic square metres… Read More →

Photos of the new 2025 Subaru Forester have surfaced online ahead of its formal unveiling at the Los Angeles motor show late next week. A gallery of 49 images posted to Imgur and social media website Reddit shows all angles of the sixth-generation Forester – the first new model since 2018, expected to be a ‘reskin’ of its predecessor rather than an all-new vehicle. Australian arrival timing is expected to be announced after Subaru unveils… Read More →

Jimmy Pelizzari and his co-driver Kate Stevens are recently back from the Lake Superior Performance Rally, their first outing in a new car. They finished, but not as well as they’re used to, having risen through the ARA ranks from novices struggling in a cool but snakebit Mazda 323 GTX to regular podium finishers in a GC 2.5RS. It was a shakedown in a new car, and some little new car issues held them back.… Read More →

The futuristic concept of flying cars has just inched another step closer to reality. Following on from Alef Aviation’s “Model A” gaining an airworthiness certificate earlier in 2023, a more well-known manufacturer has debuted its own flying vehicle concept. However, unlike the “Model A,” Subaru has eschewed traditional styling on its Air Mobility concept and instead opted for something that could best be described as looking like a large drone.

The Subaru Outback is the brand’s most well-known shooting brake or station wagon. The Subaru SVX was a complete flop, but if it had gained more sales traction during its five-year production run from 1992 to 1997, it would have spawned a station wagon variant called the Amadeus. Brimming with success from producing quirky econoboxes during the 80s and early 90s, Subaru introduced the Alcyone SVX Concept in 1989 as a design study of a… Read More →

Subaru’s second-generation BRZ traces its roots to an obscure, wedge-shaped coupe that only the geekiest enthusiasts remember: the XT. Not many of these were built, and few were preserved, but an example that looks surprisingly well-kept has popped up on Cars & Bids. Released globally in 1985, and sold as the Alcyone in Japan, the XT wasn’t the first coupe to wear a Subaru emblem; the original Leone was notably only offered with two doors… Read More →

Subaru is teasing a new model that’s slated to debut at the 2023 Los Angeles auto show in a few weeks. Based on the fact that it’s one of the oldest models in the automaker’s lineup and hasn’t been redesigned for several years, we think it’s the 2025 Subaru Forester compact SUV. From what we can see from the teaser image, it looks like the new Forester will have a new wheel design and different… Read More →

Subaru has been on a roll with a series of debuts in recent months. After introducing the BRZ tS and the WRX TR, the automaker is gearing up to reveal a more thoroughly revamped, next-generation product at the Los Angeles Auto Show on November 16. Although we know when it will be revealed, we don’t yet know what it is, since Subaru has only provided a single photo of the “all-new fully redesigned vehicle” that… Read More →

Once a popular pick in the compact segment, with standard AWD, durable construction and decent value all part of the package, the Subaru Impreza now seems to be an afterthought. At least that’s what sales charts in recent years suggest. The automaker’s conservative approach in evolving times is only one reason for the decline. For 2024, both the Impreza and the Impreza-based Crosstrek usher in a new generation. The latter is a much better seller,… Read More →
