2012 - Subaru XV
2012 Subaru XV - For the first time in 21 years, Subaru has developed a new engine to replace the “EJ” engine currently used in all Subaru passenger vehicle lines. Developed in response to heightened demand for environmentally-friendly functionality, this new “FB” engine retains the proven benefits of the horizontally-opposed engine while “enhancing fuel efficiency,” and “delivering performance better tuned to practical use, with a focus on torque in the low- and mid-speed ranges.” This core engine marks the beginning of a new era for Subaru.
1.6-litre and 2.0-litre engines are available for the European market. Both engines employ nearly the same devices except for the engine blocks, which helped to succeed in balancing fuel efficiency and output performance.
The SUBARU BOXER DIESEL, which was specially developed for the European market, received very favorable reviews. Its high rigidity, high-degree of smoothness, lightweight, compact design, excellent acceleration response with a high level of torque even at low speeds, lower CO2 emissions and better fuel efficiency are among the most frequently cited benefits. The all-new Subaru XV includes this Boxer Diesel in the line-up to meet the strong demand from customers concerned with environmental friendliness.
- 1.6i: When compared with the 1.5-liter engine in Subaru’s current models, the newly developed 1.6-liter engine in this base model boosts output in all speed ranges while also realizing a much better balance between fuel efficiency and the thrill of rapid response to operation of the accelerator.
- 2.0i: In addition to being light on its feet, this model simultaneously delivers class-topping fuel efficiency and a luxurious ride. Meanwhile, it boasts a high level of torque in the low- to mid-speed range which is the most frequently used in everyday, practical situations. This base model has been equipped with a highly responsive engine capable of delivering a sensation of instant acceleration, even when the accelerator is only slightly depressed.
- 2.0D: Fitted with a horizontally-opposed diesel engine that is lightweight, compact, and uniquely Subaru, the 2.0D offers a high degree of torque even at low speeds and excellent response to operation of the accelerator. This base model also boasts excellent fuel efficiency with low CO2 emissions.
