Recalling defective vehicles has always been an integral part of automotive manufacturing as the quality and reliability of the product is given prime importance. Looking at last month, the Takata airbag issue is growing into an epidemic, with more companies recalling their vehicles.
The 2017 Subaru BRZ has been updated with small power and performance upgrades. The exterior and interior gets minor changes as well.
The Subaru Legacy is Subaru’s flagship sedan, and has been around since a long time, even if nobody knew. Overhauled for 2015, the Legacy now gets an entirely new design and a new engine choice.
We got to test-drive something different last week. Something that is genuinely Japanese and not the Chinese-American-Australian Japanese. Something that is blisteringly fast, sounds awesome, and is a pure joy to drive. It is interesting on the tarmac, and only gets infinitely more interesting beyond it. It is the all-new 2015 Subaru WRX STI.
We’re certainly not disappointed, but the Subaru Legacy is not the design from the rather awesome concept shown off last year. It too, like the WRX has gone for a rather conventional look for 2015. The sedan debuted at the Chicago Auto Show this week
Ahead of its official debut at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show next week, pictures of the 2015 Subaru WRX STi has already been leaked online.
Subaru has this thing for showcasing hot concepts for their existing nameplates at auto shows. However, in production form, they end up being, shall we say, a bit different. In any case, Subaru has shown the new Legacy Concept at the Los Angeles Auto Show last month.
It’s not blue, nor does it have the golden wheels from the concept. Still, we’d love to take this rather puffy-looking sedan, which happens to be the new WRX, out for a spin. The Subaru WRX was officially unveiled at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show.
Contrary to what you see in the image above, the car here is not an STI. It’s only a Subaru BRZ tS. And while it does get the STI treatment through a flurry of stickers and minor upgrades, it leaves out the most vital part — the engine, and hence, keeps us waiting for the real thing.
Subaru is showing off its spanking-new Subaru WRX Concept at the 2013 New York International Auto Show. And it looks nothing like the Impreza it’s supposed to be based on.
