STUNNING NEW SUBARU CONCEPT COUPE FOR GENEVA

Subaru has released a teaser sketch of a stunning new Coupe Concept Car for the 73rd Geneva Motor Show.

Described as signalling a whole new design language for future Subarus, the Impreza-sized car is a full four-seater but with an unmistakably sporty stance.

Codenamed Subaru B11S, the Coupe will be unveiled on the Subaru Stand in Hall 1/2 at 9.30 am on 4 March by Fuji Heavy Industries President, Mr Kyoji Takenaka.

While more details will be revealed on the first Press Day of the show, Subaru views this new car as a striking indication of how seriously it now considers design in building a strong and consistent brand image.

In future, Subaru’s outstanding performance, handling and all-wheel drive chassis dynamics will be complemented by confident and arresting designs like the B11S.

Ends…

LOL! at love child comment

Will be interesting to see photos of the concept in the flesh so to speak.

I thought it looked a bit Alfa like in some ways.

I think if they made it, and it had similar/better performance than the Impreza, then it would sell like hot cakes, assuming the price wasn't silly.

Definately looks like an upsidedown Alfa front, didn't that Alfa designer move over to Subaru?

Had a good look at it before I read any of the comments and I concluded it looks like a VX220, RS Focus, Alfa mongrel. Great minds and all that.

It's certainly quite a leap from the current range. Can't wait to see more.

I like it but I'm concerned where the number plate go?

This is probably the 2nd generation SVX which was never turbocharged, hence no hoodscoop........
