First image of Subaru’s rear-wheel drive platform for new sports coupe co-developed with Toyota.
Subaru is boxing clever! The Japanese firm has released the first teaser of its ‘boxer sports car architecture’ which will be revealed at the Geneva Motor Show.
The rear-wheel-drive platform will underpin both a new Subaru coupe and the production car that finally emerges from Toyota’s FT-86 concepts – the second of which also debuts at the Swiss expo.
Both the Subaru and Toyota models are expected to boast similar coupe bodystyles, and will share Subaru’s latest flat-four boxer units, which can be mounted lower down in the engine bay, lowering the centre of gravity, as shown in this teaser image.
Subaru will launch a new website later today, with more details of the forthcoming rear-wheel-drive sports car.
