Subaru, a Japanese Car of Fuji Heavy Industries - Car Showroom

subaru_car_showroom
Subaru, a Japanese Car of Fuji Heavy Industries - Car Showroom; Subaru is the automobile manufacturing division of Japanese transportation conglomerate Fuji Heavy Industries (FHI). Subaru is known worldwide for their use of boxer engine layout used in automobiles, Volkswagen Beetle and Porsche 911, in most of their vehicles over 1500cc, and use of all-wheel drive transmission layout, the first time in 1972, which became the standard for midsize and smaller cars in most international markets in 1996. They also offer many turbocharged versions of their cars such as the Impreza WRX.

Fuji Heavy Industries, the parent company of Subaru, is currently in a partnership with Toyota Motor Corporation partial, which owns 16.5% of FHI.

Subaru is the Japanese name for the Pleiades cluster, which in turn inspires Subaru logo and alludes to the six companies that merged to create FHI.

Subaru impreza

Subaru Impreza is from the smaller car segment. It is a heavily overlooked car because it is priced little more than the popular brands and also lacks awareness as a brand.
But this could be the right kind of car for people seeking power packed fun in a small car.
The Subaru Impreza derives its performance edge from the power train which is very different than the rest and this model has always come with an all wheel drive. There is an element of extra traction when the roads are slippery. In models which are able to deliver a higher horsepower the Subaru Impreza comes with a good chassis which provides the driver with excellent handling. The power train is derived from a horizontal placed four cylinder Configuration.
The latest model of Subaru Impreza is a much refined a bigger car than its predecessors. It comes as a four door hatchback in sedan. It comes in two trims and the first one is 2.5i and WRX coupled with a turbocharged Configuration. It can produce up to 170 horse power with this combination. The drive train passes through five speed manual transmission and having an automatic transmission is also a choice.

Subaru Trizia cars 2011 With Latest Reviews and Prices

Subaru Trizia cars 2011 With Latest Reviews and Prices
Maybe someone slipped in an extra cup of civility or forgot to add enough dashes of hardcore, but what was once little more than a thinly-disguised rally stage escapee had come out of the oven a little weaker than its predecessor.

Subaru itself diplomatically admits that the priorities for the last generation STI were somewhat different from the 2011 model. The company stripped the line down to just the five-door hatchback in 2008, stressing functionality over style, and the whole recipe simply felt less focused than what we had come to expect from Japan’s all-wheel drive hero.

New Subaru Impeza Designs fir concept

Subaru Impeza Designs fir concept

Subaru will unveil the new Subaru Impreza Concept at 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show. The 2011 Subaru Impreza Design Concept seems to be smarter and meaner, then train together met with the Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive Subaru.

Subaru Impreza Concept designed to show a possible direction for future Impreza models, it harmoniously blends advanced Subaru design with Subaru’s driving confidence. The concept expresses the core Subaru brand values of “enjoyment and peace of mind.” The Subaru Impreza Concept fuses a sleek form that exudes dynamism and elegance with a roomy and rich four-seat interior that expresses a safe and comfortable ride.

Subaru Impreza Concept underlying the exterior design are “Dynamic flow and Confident stance”. The concept suggests an advanced design for Subaru by using a sporty and lively four-door coupe style. A sleek character line runs along the car from the front end along the roof and on to the rear and symbolizes the new Subaru form. The A-pillar stretching forward and the smoothly flowing C-pillar are important elements that distinguish the styling of the Subaru Impreza Concept.

Subaru provide both a roomy cabin and also superlative aerodynamic performance. These elements are boldly concentrated in the rear half of the body, and this resulted in a four-door sedan that also presents a stylish and powerful form. The front and rear bumpers incorporate hard-edged corners whose superlative aerodynamic characteristics were confirmed through wind tunnel testing, indicative of a design in which the quest for better aerodynamics meant laboring over even the smallest detail when it came to environmental friendliness. The distinctive wheel arches distinguish this as an All-Wheel drive (AWD) model while emphasizing the image of powerful Subaru driving character and also denoting reliability and safety.

Subaru releases brand new boxer engine details

Subaru’s new boxer engine details have just been released and the main result is better fuel economy than the existing models whilst maintaining plenty of power and torque.

The new Subaru normally-aspirated (non-turbo) engine is the third generation developed by Fuji Heavy Industries, Subaru’s father company, and it’s the first brand new engine since 1989.
Subaru engines have always been robust, fairly powerful and very torquey especially when matched to high-geared ratios within Subaru’s all-wheel drive system. But the engines weak link has always been consumption and economy. It’s not that the engines are bad on fuel, they just consume a little more than the rivals.
Now though, Subaru and Fuji Heavy Industries have improved this area with indications noting a 10 percent increase in fuel economy. This was done through the use of lighter moving parts and an Active Valve Control system for the intake and exhaust.
The new 2.0-litre engine uses undersquare bore and stroke measurements too, meaning the pistons travel further than they are wide; 84mm bore and a 90mm stroke. This helps with torque and reduces the engine’s inclination to want to rev higher for more performance. Figures of 109kW and 196Nm are on offer.
Managing Director, Subaru Australia, Nick Senior said in a recent report,
“This is an exciting engineering development from FHI. They’re renowned for the durability of their engines and this new unit will take the sophistication to a whole new level that we’ll look forward to experiencing in some versions of our best-selling Forester next year.”
Subaru says the new engine will be available in both 2.0-litre and 2.5-litre capacities and will first go into the market with the Subaru Forester model year 2011, which will be launched early next year.

Subaru Impreza WRX 2011


Subaru Impreza WRX 2011 is presented at the New York Auto Show.This new model has been improved and Subaru couldn`t just tweak the engine, they tweaked the body too. Subaru Impreza WRX 2011 has a wider track, with about 1.5″. The body modifications are completed with a new “face” and the 17″ wheels.
The new Subaru Impreza WRX 2011 has the same power specs as the previous model: 265Hp and 244lb-ft of torque.






subaru toyota 2011

These are very first spy shots of the Subaru and Toyota joint-developed rear-wheel-drive coupe. The test mule seen in the pictures looks like it’s sporting many body parts from the Legacy, albeit it’s apparent that coupe is much more compact in dimensions. We’re not so sure about the platform but in a previous official statement issued by the two Japanese carmakers, the yet unnamed coupes will be based on an all-new platform with power coming from Subaru’s range of boxer engines.
Judging by our experience that could translate to a modified version of the existing Impreza platform and 2.0 / 2.5-liter naturally aspirated and turbocharged engines. Needless to say that we can’t make any assumptions about the coupe’s appearance from the test mule pics. However, since both coupes are slated to enter production in 2011, expect a Toyota and Subaru concept version to appear sometime in 2009 with the production version making its official appearance in a major car show in 2010.

Subaru unwraps 2011 Subaru Impreza WRX with wider body design at New York Auto Show

Japanese carmaker Subaru unveils the 2011 Impreza WRX at the New York Auto Show. The design lines reveal the intention of the manufacturer to close the style gaps between the STI and the WRX models. The 2011 Impreza has a wider body and a more aggressive stance compared to the conservative look of the outgoing model.
The new Impreza WRX has a wider front and rear. It is also fitted with 17-inch alloy rims matched with 235/45R17 tires. Indeed the 2011 WRX is ready to pounce on the road compared to its older sibling.
The 4-door and the hatchback versions still sport the turbocharged 2.5L engine that can give out 265 horsepower. The engine is couped with a manual gearbox with a 5-speed configuration.
The wider body resulted to additional 33 pounds but it really doesn’t affect the performance of the car. The sedan will be 6.5 inches longer and logically offers more storage space than the hatchback version.
The design team also injected sharper bumper corners, wider fog lamps that are blacked out to blend well with the new profile. Some aerodynamic features were also added like the front spoiler on the lower lip.

2011 Subaru WRX & WRX STI Pictures

The 2011 Subaru WRX and WRX STI is one of the best of Subaru cars in the market. Either the sedan or hatchback type, performance has never been different. Being popular for years in the World Rally Championship, the Subaru WRX can absolutely compete for the top prize.
For 2011, the WRX has ditched the black robe for a string bikini, flaunting some serious haunches in the process. Meanwhile, the car's big brother – the WRX STI – has been fitted with a completely reworked suspension and an all-new four-door body style.

2011 Subaru WRX & WRX STI Interior
2011 Subaru WRX & WRX STI Engine
2011 Subaru WRX and WRX STI Specs:
As anyone who managed to survive the rash of Pontiac "wider is better" ads of the mid ‘90s can tell you, throwing more than an inch into a car's girth can have a big impact on how the vehicle performs. "We managed to increase the track of the WRX by nearly 1.5 inches," says Martyn Harding, Impreza car line manager for Subaru North America. "That's huge." In reality, Subaru has spread the WRX by 1.3 inches compared to the 2010 model—a big number by anyone's count—thanks solely to the car's wild new bodywork. While the hatchback now wears the same cladding as last year's WRX STI, the look is most noticeable in four door trim, where the body is dominated by front fenders that are flared to body builder proportions and rear quarter panels that are built to match. There's even more than a hint of BMW M3 in the rear diffuser. Throw in a set of wheels that are wider by a full inch and suddenly the car is capable of laying down grip well past the engine's capability.

Like last year, the WRX gets its power from a turbocharged 2.5 liter four-cylinder engine with 265 horsepower and 244 lb-ft of torque. Mated to a five-speed manual transmission and an all-wheel drive system, the combination returns 19 mpg city and 25 mpg highway. Likewise, the WRX STI retains its old engine, though it produces a more muscular 305 horsepower and 290 lb-ft of torque. The engine is bolted to a six-speed manual gearbox and an adjustable all-wheel drive system, all of which is good for 17 mpg city and 23 mpg highway.

But the big news on the WRX STI front is what's under the car. Subaru has built in sway bars that are about 30 percent more rigid, stiffer springs (16 percent in the front and 55 percent in the rear), stiffer bushings and a lower ride height for 2011. The company has even moved to steel-ball type bushings where the front control arm meets the body for added rigidity, though it's surrounded by a rubber bushing to keep noise and vibration down.

Price of the WRX will cost you at around $25,495 for the four-door and five-door trims. While the WRX STI sedan is priced at $33,995 and the five-door will cost at $35,995.

2011 Subaru Impreza WRX STI Sedan

You complained; Subaru listened. The WRX STI is a sedan again for 2011, and it just might be the best-handling STI we’ve ever tested.
When Subaru went hatch-only on the previous-generation STI, the company explained that the body style handled better, which had something to do with center of gravity, weight distribution, polar moments of inertia, and other such things. Perfectly rational explanations, and completely lost on the fans. You wanted a sedan with a wing big enough to pick up premium movie channels in Tokyo, and you got it. And it performs even better than the last STI hatch we tested.
Not that it’s a completely fair comparison. Subaru didn’t just build a sedan version of the STI for 2011 and call it a day. As long as it was building a new model, Subaru let its engineers loose on the suspension to see if they couldn’t make up for that non-ideal body. We saw the first hints of that improvement in the 2010 Subaru WRX STI Special Edition we tested back in May, with its stiffer suspension lifted from the JDM-only Spec C model. Subaru hung onto those parts for the 2011 car, and even gave them another going-over.
A lower ride height, even stiffer stabilizer bars on top of the already-stiffened springs, and new Heim joints on the front suspension conspire to turn out the best figure-eight performance of any factory-spec STI we’ve ever tested, the Special Edition included. Though the new sedan gave up a small amount of lateral grip (0.93 g average on the skid pad versus an all-time best of 0.95 g average for the 2008 model), it made big strides where it counted, on the figure eight. By testing transitions as well as pure lateral grip, the figure eight gives us a better impression of real-world handling, which the new STI has in spades. Completing the circuit in just 25.5 seconds at 0.73 g average, it’s quicker and stickier than both the last-generation STI and the STI Special Edition, which clocked in at 25.7 seconds at 0.71 g average. A quick look at our test data dating back to the original STI reveals that the only way you’re going to do better is with aftermarket parts.
