The History of Subaru – A Grounding in Japanese Efficiency, Executed Perfectly Today

Subaru is a Japanese term for unite.

And in 1954, from a collection of companies named Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd., their respective automotive division launched the Subaru 1500.

Boasting a front-wheel, wishbone-styled suspension, the precedent was set for what was to come.

1958

Later, in 1958, the Subaru 360 was introduced. Coined the “ladybird,” this moniker derived from the unique shape of compact, exterior contours.

Here, another steppingstone was set into place upon which to build from.

1960s

The 1960s witnessed the very first Subaru truck, called the Sambar. The compact dimensions of this minitruck were then perfect for narrow streets that Tokyo is famed for.

And by the end of decade came Subaru North America. Exports then started for American consumers to find favor with.

1970s

New ground was broken in this decade with the design of the Subaru Leone sedan. Offering four-wheel drive, this was unheard of if not solely found in off-road vehicles at the time.

Also the newly introduced, Subaru Brat was a rugged, small car joined to a pickup bed. Featured inside the bed was a pair of jump seats. A most perfect design for young drivers with a select affinity for adventure.

This decade in Subaru provided the opportunity to experience remote spots via accessible vehicles. Another precedent set.

1980s to Present

The 1980s ushered in the world’s first electronically controlled, continuously variable transmission. This then implemented in the Subaru Justy.

To come shortly thereafter would be Subaru Legacy – its present-day iteration offered today at Casey Subaru near Williamsburg, VA.
