Tokyo 2013: Subaru Cross Sport Design Concept

Subaru Cross Sport TMS-7

Besides the headlining Subaru Levorg Sports Tourer, FHI also showed off the Subaru Cross Sport Design Concept at the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show. It’s quite a fascinating thing, looking like a raised and toughened-up sports coupe. The sports car cum SUV theme was also recently visited by Italdesign and Audi.

Subaru says that the 4.3-metre concept car is a combination of ‘sport’ and ‘utility’ – both aspects which have been refined by the brand over the years. The compact footprint allows brisk driving and yet provides features such as easy seat access, a comfortable interior and abundant luggage space, as you can see below.

A car like the Cross Sport Design Concept is what Subaru perceives to be the next trend in urban SUVs. What do you think of this BRZ SUV?

    ask theophillus chin or whoever that knows how to ps to ps in subaru wrx or levorg (production / prototype model) front and rear to this car, and your excitement will be drastically decreased over 70%……i don’t believe in subaru’s concept cars anymore.

    Nice n well design. Subaru has put much effort this days. Even the impreza will be launch soon, and the way it looks is astonishing! Compare to MMC? Bloody hell MMc, evo is no longer ppl dream car as inspira has inspire evo n produce it by P1. At least they sell evo 7 8 9 tech to proton, why on earth evo 10? Humiliation! Those who own lancer version 10 sell off their car once sawing P1 in production. Now come Honda Accord user..

    The sports car and SUV trend already started long time ago, by Cayenne and Macan although the shape not fully sports-like
