 Subaru Rex - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In 1981, the Subaru Rex became front wheel drive, and the engine was enlarged to 665 cc in 1982.
The end for the Rex came in 1992, when it was replaced by the Vivio.
Rex is also a common nickname for the high performance Subaru Impreza WRX, especially in Australia.

 Subaru Rex
By April, 1970 the Subaru R-2 SS arrived with a 36 HP twin choke carburettor, later to be called Subaru R-2 GSS.
The Subaru Rex, still with rear engine (cast iron as usual) and the same wheelbase and suspension as the R-2 came in July, 1972 as a 2-door sedan.
In Europe the car was called Subaru mini Jumbo, in Australia Subaru Sherpa and in China the 5-door sedan is built as Yunque GHK 7060 (544 cc engine), which was widened at the end of 1998 to 146.2 cm (length 336.7 cm) and renamed Yunque GHK 7060A.

 Subaru History - Impreza FAQ - Subaru Impreza About
Subaru cars (especially Imprezas) are sometimes affectionately referred to as "Scooby-Doos," "Scoobies", or "Scoobarus," due to the similarity in pronunciation between "Subaru" and "Scooby Doo".
Subaru used the Impreza chassis for the mechanical underpinnings of the Subaru Forester, a small SUV designed to compete in the segment comprising the Honda CR-V and Ford Escape; also, the hatchback-or Impreza Wagon-formed the basis of the Saab 9-2X released in 2004 (given the tongue-in-cheek moniker, "Saabaru").
Subaru GL/DLs became very popular in the 1980s in snowy areas due to their adaptability to extreme cold (you can count on a Subaru to start at 40 degrees below zero, this cannot be said of all cars), low price, good fuel economy, and most importantly, the four wheel drive option.

 Subaru - Wikicars
In fact, it was Subaru that introduced Renault to Nissan when they asked for assistance in all-wheel drive (AWD) technology, when FHI told Renault to discuss their plans with Nissan, the discussions eventually led to the successful Renault-Nissan alliance.
Subaru's best-known vehicles are high performance turbocharged versions of its Legacy (known as Liberty in Australia—it was renamed out of respect for the Legacy Australia Foundation, which aids veterans and their families during and after wars), and Impreza, which offer outstanding performance and handling at relatively affordable prices.
The advertisements were intended to highlight Subaru's all wheel drive, and depicted the Outback in a number of rugged Australian locations.

 Subaru Impreza - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
However, as rally competition shifted toward smaller and lighter chassis, Subaru needed a smaller and faster car—a role in which the Impreza was immediately successful and in which the Impreza continues to compete effectively, albeit in more powerful versions than were initially introduced.
The Impreza brought Subaru three consecutive WRC titles (1995–7) and a driver's championship for Colin McRae in 1995, the late Richard Burns in 2001, and Petter Solberg in 2003.
In Australia, the 1992-2004 Subaru Impreza was assessed in the Used Car Safety Ratings 2006 as providing "average" protection for its occupants in the event of a crash.

 Subaru's Six-Star Badge - WorldCarFans.com
The history of the Subaru name and six-star badge is well known among enthusiast groups and employees, with its background entrenched in both Japanese and Greek tradition.
The six-stars cluster featured in the Subaru badge design is known in Japan as mutsuraboshi (six stars), and FHI was the first vehicle manufacturer to use a Japanese word for a brand of automobile.
Lessons learned in the development of the Subaru 1500 led to the debut of the Subaru 360 – a milestone that established Subaru as a builder of small, affordable, yet technologically advanced cars.

The Subaru Rex was launched as the successor to the Subaru R-2 in July 1972.
The Rex was a hit thanks to the youthful, dynamic image its styling gave it and Subaru's traditional minicar features, including superior handling, driving stability, riding comfort, and fuel economy.
Subaru broke that pattern by introducing the mass-produced 4WD variation in an ordinary passenger vehicle series.

 AutoSpeed - Supercharged Rex
Released in Japan during 1989, the Rex is one of the most intriguing ‘Kei’ class econo-midgets – it’s the only one to use a supercharger rather than a turbocharger for forced induction.
The Rex’s 550cc 4 cylinder motor (coded EN05) employs a tiny Roots-type positive displacement supercharger to deliver ‘big engine’ driveability and torque.
The advantage of the supercharger approach is the generous amount of low rpm torque, part-throttle performance and throttle response at your disposal.
