As a 4wd, turbo hybrid cruiser.

At least according to !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . But don't expect it sooner than 2017-18 and the main market is set to be North America.

I don't know about you ladies, but I'm all for a new SVX.

There is also this Vision GT teaser.

That would be the first hybrid that I could really get behind.

If they make is a shooting-brake... x1000 win.

not going to happen, this doesn't align with the current subaru customer base.

They have an SVX successor. They complain a lot that it doesn't sell enough. What's the point of adding another similar model?

Sadly, I have to agree. Subaru is on fire in terms of sales recently, shame that their lineup is filled with beige. Oh well, at least we still have WRX and BRZ.

There is room for both this and the BRZ, as this would be a different animal.

I know there's room, I just don't know if there's a market.

Well, for Subaru fans who want something cooler than a Legacy that's a bit more practical than a BRZ. Or for those who want a sports coupe, that won't cost them an arm and a leg(premium cars) or that are gimmicky and rough around the edges(muscle cars) but are still more fun to drive than an Accord coupe. I'd market this car as the sophisticated blue collar's sports coupe.

I'd buy one... yet I wouldn't buy a BRZ.
