Description of Main Exhibits◆ Subaru VIZIV Future Concept (world premiere)
Subaru VIZIV Future Concept is a SUV-type concept model embodying the future vision of car
development for “enjoyment and peace of mind” that Subaru wants to provide to customers. Along with apackage of design features that motivate the owner to get out and get active, this car gives a look at
next-generation technologies that will further enhance the reputation of Subaru for “enjoyment and peaceof mind” in driving. Among them are the automatic driving technology resulting from the ongoing evolutionof EyeSight, and the power unit combining a downsized turbo engine with a hybrid system. Subaru remains
focused on providing cars that enrich the lives of customers, as the start of an exciting new chapter. TheSubaru VIZIV Future Concept gives a glimpse at the future Subaru has in mind for the brand.
1. Design
The design concept is “Subaru & Active Life”. Giving concrete form to the Subaru Dynamic & Solid design
theme, the design clearly shows the value of “enjoyment and peace of mind”, while generating the urge togo out and actively discover the wide world.
Exterior• The body as a three-dimensional solid form is given a clear polished surface enhancing the impressionof high density and sturdiness. This design along with the powerfully extended fenders expressing thereliability of Subaru All-Wheel Drive (AWD) evoke the safety, enjoyment, and peace of mind of Subaru.
• A true SUV style is expressed throughout, by the strong motifs starting from the hexagonal grill thatsymbolizes the Subaru identity and flowing to the sides and then ascending to the rear pillar, as well as
by the dynamic and wide bumper motif.
Interior• The interior design heightens peace of mind and the anticipation of driving, by means of a dynamic
motif spreading out symmetrically from the cutting-edge interface between the center and powerfulframe.
• An active life style is evoked by the beige and black contrast along with the use of orange as a unified
accent color inside and out, creating a sporty and joyful space.
• A camera for monitoring the driver is located on the instrument panel glare shield, further adding topeace of mind when driving.

2. Mechanisms
Advanced safety / human-machine interface (HMI) / telematics“Enjoyment and peace of mind” have been expanded by making advancements to EyeSight, Subaru’s
original stereo camera-using technology, and by merging the linking technologies like vehicle-to-external
communications and telematics. Element technologies have been incorporated that will lead todevelopment of automatic driving worthy of Subaru.
1) Combining the advanced front recognition of EyeSight with all-direction radar sensing, the traffic
environment around the vehicle and risk from all sides are monitored. In addition, high-accuracy GPSand map data are used to pinpoint the vehicle location with high precision; and optimum control isapplied based on curves, lane lines, and other information about the route ahead. Thanks to thesetechnologies, not only is collision avoidance realized during straight-ahead movement, but avoidanceof collision in all directions, with vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrians, when turning at intersections orwhen backing up, is also enhanced. Automatic driving is realized at all speeds on expressways, andautomatic parking is supported at home or in commercial facilities’ parking lots.
2) The adoption of technological advances in telematics and HMI enables anticipation of traffic, weather,and other conditions along the route ahead, as well as effective communication of intentions withpeople and vehicles. Communication of information supporting the customer’s hobbies and otheraspects of an active life is another feature of automatic driving that imparts driving peace of mind while
making car life more interesting.
Power unit(a) Next-generation hybrid system
The next-generation hybrid system has advanced every aspect of the system first launched on themarket with the Subaru XV Hybrid. The combination with a downsized turbo engine improves fuelefficiency, while at the same time the smooth, linear feel when accelerating brings driving enjoyment.
(b) Next-generation downsized direct-injection turbo engine
The downsized turbo engine adopted by Subaru for the first time in the Levorg has been furtheradvanced, and optimized in all dimensions specifically for the next generation of cars. Compact size,
light weight, and net thermal efficiency that is top in the segment raise to a new level the ability ofSubaru to combine enjoyable driving with fuel efficiency.
(c) Symmetrical motor AWD
The propeller shaft has been eliminated by mounting the single motor concentrically on the rear axle ina compact layout. In addition to AWD capabilities, a flat floor is realized for an expansive, comfortableinterior space. Moreover, it inherits the Subaru AWD performance while further improving
maneuverability, thanks to the vectoring effect of actively controlling front/rear driving force distribution.

◆ Impreza 5-Door Concept (world premiere)
The Impreza 5-Door Concept is a 5-door style concept model. It takes its inspiration from the design of thenext-generation Impreza envisaged in FHI’s Mid-Term Management Vision “Prominence 2020,”
announced in May 2014, as the first Subaru new-generation model.
The Dynamic & Solid theme will be featured more prominently in new-generation models as the essence ofSubaru. Adopting that theme as core, the design of this concept model expresses value exceeding its class,from the dynamically sporty feel that heightens the anticipation of driving, essential in Subaru design, to thesolid performance functions that heighten the sense of innovation and peace of mind.

◆ WRX S4 SporVita (to be announced October 28)
The name SporVita combines the Italian words sportiva (sports) and vita (life). It expresses the way thesporty performance of a Subaru vehicle and the uncompromising pursuit of a quality interior space combine
to enrich the car life of drivers.
The genuine leather seats unique to the SporVita were designed in collaboration with renowned Italianleather maker Mario Levi, the first such adoption in Japan by a Japanese automaker. Overall style
coordination achieved by modifying the trim and instrument panel decorative effects result in a quality
interior space having a strong emotional appeal. The sporty performance of the WRX S4 is further
enhanced by the 245/40R18 high-performance tires. Moreover, the Advanced Safety Package, providing ahigher level of safety in combination with EyeSight, is standard equipment. In these and other ways, theindividuality of the WRX S4 has been enhanced, with specifications befitting its status as a sport sedan foradults.
