The new generation of Subaru hybrid vehicle is equipped with a newly developed 2.5L horizontally-opposed engine, matched with a high-efficiency transmission, providing a maximum power output of 158 PS and 209N·m, and uses a flexible series-parallel hybrid system, which can intelligently switch the engine and motor.
Subaru's compact horizontally-opposed engine layout can provide space for high-voltage batteries and large-capacity fuel tanks. Thanks to the efficient hybrid system and an enlarged 63L fuel tank, the new car achieves a driving range of over 1000 km (WLTC), setting a new record for the Subaru brand. It's worth mentioning that Subaru is currently the only mass-market brand that manufactures horizontally opposed engines.
