ALWAYS READY.

IT’S WHAT MAKES A SUBARU, A SUBARU.

DID YOU BRING THE MAP?

Did you check the forecast?

Should we take the scenic route?

Should we bring that too?

When we woke up this morning, did you think we’d take off on a road trip?

WITH SUBARU, YOU KNOW THAT YOU’RE READY.

With Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive for performance and control.

Ready with versatility and comfort for passengers.

Ready with technology to reward every drive.

Ready with invigorating performance to exhilarate.

And with the safety and conﬁ dence you can expect from every Subaru.

V-TYPE ENGINEIN-LINE ENGINE

SUBARU BOXER ENGINE

CONFIDENCE YOU CAN FEEL.

YOU CAN TRUST.

Driving a Subaru is an experience unlike any other. It starts from Symmetrical

All-Wheel Drive and boxer engine, the foundation that forms the basis of

every Subaru. And each component and system that goes into a Subaru is

designed to enhance the control, stability and protection that you can sense

with every press of the pedal and turn of the wheel.

SUBARU BOXER ENGINE

Performance. Safety. Reliability. Power, and so much more. The unique conﬁ guration of the SUBARU

BOXER engine helps lower the vehicle’s center of gravity. The result is more precise handling and

greater overall stability. And the layout of the pistons helps ensure greater durability, smoother

operation and efﬁ cient power output.

AWARD-WINNING SAFETY

Every Subaru has been engineered to achieve the

highest possible crash test ratings.

That’s one of

the reasons why you’ll ﬁ nd Subaru vehicles at

the top of numerous recommendation lists for

safe cars. But every Subaru was also designed to

provide the control, stability and active safety

features that can help you avoid collisions in the

ﬁ rst place. So hopefully, you’ll never have to ﬁ nd

out what those 5 stars really mean.

SUBARU SYMMETRICAL ALL-WHEEL DRIVE

Its symmetrical design and ideal balance give you enhanced stability and quick response

to slippage, delivering greater traction for control and performance. Because we don’t

believe that driving pleasure and safety should be an optional feature, every Subaru

comes standard with Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive.

1 Based upon 2007 best results from either NHTSA or IIHS. Government tests

are part of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s (NHTSA’s) new

car assessment program. See www.safercar.gov for more details. Based upon

IIHS ratings 40 mph frontal, 31 mph side, and 30 mph rear impact tests.

GOOD FOR YOU.

Our commitment to ﬁ nding innovative ways of preserving the environment stems

from more than just using less fuel—it’s about using less, period. It’s about leaving

as small a footprint as possible—respecting the Earth, respecting the future, and

respecting the consumer. Resulting in a company that delivers real-world beneﬁ ts

that everyone can enjoy.

Our dedication to ease the burden on the environment at every stage begins from the time that a

vehicle is conceptualized to when it’s fully integrated into your life. We’ve received ISO 14001 certiﬁ cation

for recycling and waste reduction in every stage of manufacturing, marketing and sales. And we offer

a full array of vehicles that meet PZEV (Partial Zero Emissions Vehicle) classiﬁ cation.

Some of our most

popular models have received the EPA’s prestigious and stringent SmartWay certiﬁ cation, which

means they emit lower amounts of pollutants that cause smog, spew less of the carbon dioxide

that causes global warming, and have impressive fuel economy compared to other vehicles in

their class.

So that you can feel good about owning a Subaru, even when you’re not driving it.

1 For 2008 Outback 2.5i, Legacy 2.5i and Forester 2.5X models certified as Partial Zero Emission Vehicles (PZEV) that

are sold, registered and operated in California, Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New York, Rhode Island or Vermont

all emission parts are covered for 15 years/150,000 miles, whichever comes first. For complete warranty and program

information, including coverage and disclosures see your Subaru dealer or log on to www.subaru.com.

2 For select Outback, Legacy and Forester models, the SmartWay mark is based-on the vehicle’s officially certified exhaust

emissions and greenhouse gas scores. Visit www.epa.gov/greenvehicles for more information.

NATURE HABITAT

Humans aren’t the only species that are Subaru

fans. Because in 2003, our Indiana plant became

the ﬁ rst in America to be designated a wildlife

habitat, with indigenous animals such as deer,

blue herons and beavers living in peaceful coexis-

tence with Subaru of Indiana Automotive (SIA).

ZERO LANDFILL STATUS

The average American produces more waste in

a week than we do in an entire year. In 2004, the

Subaru manufacturing plant in Indiana became

the FIRST automotive plant in America to achieve

ZERO LANDFILL status, with a 99% recycle rate.

The other 1%? Turned into electricity.

THE MANIFESTATION OF MORE.

The Subaru Tribeca offers everything you already love about Subaru—innovative engineering, intelligent

our new 3.6-liter 6-cylinder engine good for 256 horsepower and 247 lb.-ft. of torque that runs on regular

unleaded fuel. It’s paired to a 5-speed automatic with SPORTSHIFT

manual control revised for smoother

smart 7-passenger seating conﬁ guration to its distinctive new design, the Tribeca is an example of what

happens when the only compromise you make is to settle for more.

9-inch monitor with wide screen format, wireless headphones,

video iPod

Imagine all the versatility and the fun-to-drive character-

Now you have the Impreza Outback Sport, which enables

you to travel over uneven surfaces that would stand in

the way of other vehicles.

VERSATILITY / ROOMINESS

Whether you choose the stylish 4-door or versatile 5-door

version, Impreza gives you the ﬂ exibility of 60/40 split-

folding rear seats to give you greater capacity and storage

solutions. And calling shotgun may be rendered obsolete

with its spacious rear leg and headroom.

NAVIGATION / AUDIO

With available features like inputs for portable multimedia

devices and pre-wiring for satellite radio to entertain,

enlighten and inform, as well as an available touch-screen

navigation system to guide the way, you may ﬁ nd yourself

spending more time in your car than in your apartment.

The available electronic stability control system helps keep you on your

intended path by measuring variables such as steering input, braking

and vehicle angle. Sensing any slide that causes the vehicle to deviate

from your intended course, VDC applies individual brakes and/or reduces

engine power to counteract the slide and help keep you safely in control.

In conjunction with Brake Assist and Incline Start Assist,

it gives you the

uncompromising safety that you can expect from Subaru.

WRX

In the 18 years since Subaru ﬁ rst entered the World Rally Championships, it has remained

a dominant force in the series, boasting numerous championships. The knowledge, analysis

and passion derived from these experiences go into the development of every Subaru. Racing

is in our blood. Winning is part of our DNA.

NAVIGATION SYSTEM

Just a few taps on the high-resolution touch-screen of the

available GPS navigation system and you’ll have a co-pilot

across town or across the country. When not in use, you

can get information on your fuel economy, check main-

tenance reminders, and use a calendar and calculator. It

even controls some vehicle settings.

SUSPENSION

A new double-wishbone rear suspension intimately ties

the WRX to the asphalt. A lengthened wheelbase allows

for a more intelligently conﬁ gured interior and a smoother,

more buttoned-down ride quality. The WRX also comes

standard with 17-inch 10-spoke aluminum wheels.

TURBOCHARGED

The force-fed induction engine delivers 224-horsepower

and 226 lb.-ft. of peak torque that you can access at a

low 2,800 rpm, giving you power across the rev band. And

thanks to a new intercooler and turbocharger, it’s 50 lbs.

lighter than last year’s car.

TRAINED AROUND THE GLOBE. MASTER OF THE STREET.

Four wheels, driven by desire. Long before the ﬁ rst Subaru Impreza WRX laid tracks on American

tarmac, a devoted U.S. fan base was following its victorious adventures around the globe. In World

Rally Championships. In the tuner world of the street. It is the turbocharged, all-wheel-drive icon.

And now, we introduce the all-new action-packed 2008 Subaru Impreza WRX. Available in 5-door

or 4. An all-new rear suspension to make you one with the road. Performance-design front seats to

hold you in while you do it. Reshaped, yes. Reformed, never. Master of the street… remastered.

only, and seatbelts must be worn in order to avoid injuries to out-of-position occupants upon bag deployment and to provide the best combined protection in a serious accident. Children

should always be properly restrained in the rear seat.
