Subaru R For Sale

Subaru R-2 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Not to be confused with the newer Subaru R2, that was introduced in 2003. This article incorporates information from the equivalent article on the Japanese Wikipedia. Subaru R-2 Manufacturer Subaru Production 1969–1972 Predecessor Subaru 360 Successor Subaru Rex Class city car/kei car Layout rear engine, rear drive Engine(s) 356cc EK33 air-cooled straight-twin 358cc EK34 water-cooled straight-twin Wheelbase 1,920 mm (76 in) Length 2,995 mm (117.9 in) Width 1,295 mm (51.0 in) Height 1,345 mm (53.0 in) Curb weight 430 kg (950 lb) The Subaru R-2 was a kei car manufactured by Subaru from 1969-1972. The R-2 was a full model change of the popular Subaru 360, but with an updated appearance and increased interior space. The R-2 appeared approximately one year before the Honda Life, Daihatsu Fellow Max and Suzuki Fronte kei cars, however, it continued to use the powertrain setup from the Subaru 360, which was the EK33 air-cooled 2 cylinder engine installed in the back, which is the inspiration for the name of the vehicle. It appeared around the same time as the second generation Mitsubishi Minica. When the car was introduced February 8, 1969, Subaru took 25,000 orders for the car in one month. In the early 1970s, the Japanese government enacted legislation to reduce emissions, which prompted Subaru and other manufacturers to upgrade engines that were air-cooled and using a two-stroke engine implementation. On October 7, 1971, the Subaru engine was upgraded to a two-stroke water cooled engine, called the EK34 series engine, but the retrofit was hastily done, and was better achieved with the new 1972 Subaru Rex, which was available with both 2- and 4-doors. A styling upgrade was accomplished on the water-cooled R-2, adding a faux grille to the front of the vehicle that had no function other than a more modern appearance, as well as a corporate identity to the all new compact Subaru Leone. Subaru continued with a rear engine platform so as to afford more trunk space up front and provide seating for four passengers, whereas competitors offered front engine front wheel drive vehicles to reduce noise intrusion from the engine and offer rear seats that folded down for increased cargo capacity, albeit with fewer passengers. In response to the rising popularity of front wheel drive front engine alternatives, Subaru offered a hatchback bodystyle February 16, 1970. Performance versions of the R-2 came April 18, 1970, in the form of the R-2 SS with a dual exhaust and an increase in the compression ratio from 3.8 kg·m (37 N·m; 27 lb·ft)at 6,400 RPM to 7.5 kg·m (74 N·m; 54 lb·ft)at 7,000 RPM, and a higher trim level called the R-2 GL October 5. Another contributor to the early cancellation of the R-2 was its handling characteristics, which were found to be not as stable as vehicles that were front engine, front wheel drive[1]. It's the car driven by Natsumi Tsujimoto, an anime fictional character and the main protagonist in the You're Under Arrest franchise. Subaru would launch a spiritual successor to the R-2 in 2003, called the Subaru R2. [edit] References ^ "September 9, 1970 Article 63 of the Special Committee for Traffic Safety".

Simply enter your email address below and we will keep you up to date with all that's going on at Subaru and make sure you're first to know about our special offers. Email Address UNCOMMON ENGINEERING Unlike other cars, the core technology inside every Subaru comes from a perfect idea. We start by creating ideal balance by mating the Subaru BOXER engine to the permanent Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system. It is this pioneering technology that ultimately makes a Subaru a Subaru. BALANCE The layout of the Subaru BOXER engine and permanent Symmetrical AWD naturally balance not just the drivetrain's mass but its response as well. Together they deliver power more smoothly and distribute it more effectively to all four wheels, providing the superb grip and balance that defines a Subaru. CONTROL The Subaru BOXER engine's flat configuration gives the vehicle a lower centre of gravity. Paired with the superior handling of the permanent Symmetrical AWD, this combination provides more precise, responsive and satisfying control in virtually any driving condition. SAFETY In poor weather, or in the precious seconds it takes to react to an unexpected situation, the combination of the balanced Subaru BOXER engine and surefooted Symmetrical AWD provide the agility that can help drivers avoid a collision. UNCOMMON BALANCE  PERMANENT SYMMETRICAL AWD Since introducing permanent Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive in 1972, Subaru has continually advanced its technology to meet the evolving needs of drivers around the world. A Subaru is engineered to deliver the best possible traction and stability through its AWD, with its engine and drivetrain in a symmetrical, straight-line layout. Power is routed to all four wheels simply and directly, for perfect balance and ultimate driver control. UNCOMMON ROADHOLDINGSUBARU BOXER ENGINE The horizontally-opposed configuration of the Subaru BOXER engine places the pistons opposite each other, for a lower, flatter profile than other engine types. This gives the engine, and therefore the overall vehicle, a lower centre of gravity and better sense of balance. Furthermore, the pistons' opposing movements inherently counteract each other, naturally helping to reduce vibration. BETTER BALANCESMOOTHER OPERATIONGREATER TRACTION With its horizontally-opposed configuration, the Subaru BOXER engine lays flatter, and can sit lower, than other engine designs. The lower centre of gravity for the entire vehicle delivers more balanced handling and flatter cornering. The pistons lay flat on each side of the crankshaft in the Subaru BOXER engine, so they thrust away from each other in a horizontally-opposed configuration. This "punch-counterpunch" action naturally counteracts vibration, for inherently smoother running. Whether you're negotiating a road in bad weather or reacting to avoid an accident, Symmetrical AWD is designed to deliver exceptional traction, and therefore driver confidence, by keeping all four wheels engaged at all times. UNCOMMON STABILITY Unlike other cars, innovative Subaru engineering balances handling precision, occupant protection and driving passion. The Outback features Subaru's Dynamic Chassis Control Concept to extend the benefits of its lower centre of gravity, AWD stability and ultimately its breathtaking performance. SUBARU DYNAMIC CHASSIS CONTROL CONCEPT The Outback elevates the inherent advantages of its signature Subaru layout - balance, composure and response - with the Subaru Dynamic Chassis Control Concept. The body uses high-tensile steel in critical areas to achieve high strength with lighter weight. A rigid new Cradle Mount front-end structure delivers more accurate, natural steering feel whilst allowing the engine and suspension to be more effectively isolated from the cabin for a smoother, quieter ride. The result is more of everything that makes driving a pleasure: giving confidence with comfort, sportiness with safety, and elegance with efficiency - all in perfect balance.

Email Address UNLIKE OTHER ENGINES, THE SUBARU BOXER ENGINE IMPROVES PERFORMANCE IN ALL AREAS Naturally smoother than other engines and capable of generating torque fluently throughout the rev range, the Subaru BOXER engine is a powerful contender. With strong, linear acceleration, and a low-profile configuration that lowers the centre of gravity of the entire vehicle, it delivers a level of handling precision unexpected in a vehicle this comfortable, capable and spacious. The result is uncommonly breathtaking. 2.0-LITRE DOHC SUBARU BOXER DIESEL WITH MANUAL TRANSMISSION MAX POWER: 150PS @ 3,600 rpm MAX TORQUE: 350 Nm @ 1,800 to 2,400 rpm FUEL ECONOMY COMBINED: 44.1 mpg, CO2 emissions: 167 g/km The inherent rigidity, smoothness and quiet operation of the Subaru BOXER engine make it the ideal configuration for the world’s first BOXER diesel engine to power a passenger vehicle. Higher-pressure common-rail fuel injection, an improved oxidising catalyst with closed Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), a variable-nozzle turbo and electric power steering reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. New ceramic glow plugs provide quick starting in cold weather. And while it meets the ultra-clean EURO5 emissions standards, it also delivers all of its prodigious 350 Nm of peak torque from just 1,800 rpm. 2.5-LITRE SOHC SUBARU BOXER WITH LINEARTRONIC TRANSMISSION MAX POWER: 167PS @ 5,600 rpm MAX TORQUE: 229 Nm @ 4,000 rpm FUEL ECONOMY COMBINED: 33.6 mpg, CO2 emissions: 194 g/km The SOHC engine delivers high fuel efficiency with ultra-clean EURO5-certified emissions. Refinements to its pistons, ports, intake manifold and even its spark plugs help to make it more responsive around town, more satisfying on the motorway, and cleaner- running on virtually any road. 3.6-LITRE DOHC SUBARU BOXER WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION MAX POWER: 260PS @ 5,600 rpm MAX TORQUE: 350 Nm @ 4,400 rpm FUEL ECONOMY COMBINED: 28.2 mpg, CO2 emissions: 232 g/km The largest, most refined engine ever offered in the Outback gives smooth power, quiet operation  and commendable efficiency. Light, compact and perfectly balanced by design, it features the dual Active Valve Control System for impressive torque. Lower friction and increased rigidity further reduce noise, vibration, fuel consumption and emissions. UNCOMMON CONTROL The full range of Outback models offer a choice of drivetrains that are thoroughly and thoughtfully engineered to fit your needs, however you enjoy driving. Three transmission choices, each perfectly matched to its own AWD system, deliver total control. Every Outback also includes a new ECO indicator among its backlit instruments that lets you keep an eye on your driving efficiency too. UNLIKE OTHER TRANSMISSIONS, LINEARTRONIC DELIVERS SEAMLESS PERFORMANCE Seamless performance with no changing gears — Lineartronic variable transmission is continuously working with the driver to provide the ultimate link between power and control. The Continuously Variable Transmission longitudinally paired with AWD uses a chain instead of a belt. This allows greater ratios for improved performance and efficiency and a faster response to your throttle input. It keeps the engine operating in the most favourable rpm range for any driving speed, with a balance of both power and fuel economy. Specifically tuned for instant response with minimal movement of the accelerator pedal, and a more compact design for greater legroom, Lineartronic is the perfect harness for the pure power and broad torque curve of the Subaru BOXER engine. LINEARTRONIC AND ACTIVE TORQUE SPLIT AWD  For instant, seamless response to changing conditions, Outback 2.5i models are fitted with the new Lineartronic transmission. It’s mated to an active torque-split AWD system that responds to traction conditions. Paddle shifters also provide a six-step manual mode for instant response on demand. 5-SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND VARIABLE TORQUE DISTRIBUTION AWD Outback 3.6R models are equipped with a newly refined E-5AT automatic transmission paired with Variable Torque Distribution AWD. The electronically controlled 5-speed transmission features driver-adaptive shifting, blipping control for quicker, smoother downshifts, and manual-style control via paddle shifters. 6-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION AND VISCOUS CENTRE DIFFERENTIAL AWD For maximum control a slick-shifting new 6-speed manual transmission is standard on all Outback 2.0 BOXER diesel engines. It’s paired with a limited-slip differential AWD system utilising a centre differential with viscous coupling. Whenever the balance of traction changes, this limited-slip differential immediately redistributes the torque to the front and rear wheels as needed. CRUISE CONTROL The electronic cruise control standard on all Outback models allows the driver to maintain a preset speed on the open road. Elegant metallic-finished controls are located on the steering wheel for convenience and safety.

If the vehicle approaches the limits of stability, the AWD torque distribution, engine output and brakes at each wheel are adjusted to assist in keeping the vehicle on course.MORE STABLE MANOEUVRES In a corner or an evasive manoeuvre, Vehicle Dynamics Control compares the driver's intentions with the vehicle's actual movements, based on steering and braking, as well as the lateral acceleration and yaw (rotation). The system then adjusts engine output and braking of individual wheels as needed to assist in keeping the car close to the desired course. 1. CORNERING The rigidly mounted suspension, lower centre of gravity and standard Vehicle Dynamics Control work in concert to provide crisp cornering, along with clear communication between the driver and the road. 2. ROUGH ROAD Designed to optimise tyre contact and provide generous wheel travel, the rigidly mounted yet luxuriously compliant suspension has been proven on some of the world's most challenging roads. 3. SMOOTH HIGHWAY The refined, low-friction 4-wheel independent suspension and rigid body structure minimise the transmission of vibration and noise from the road to the passenger cabin for a smooth quiet ride. 4. CHANGING WEATHER The permanent Symmetrical AWD, Vehicle Dynamics Control and precise independent suspension team up to optimise how the tyre responds to the road, to make the most of available traction. FRONT SUSPENSION The strut type front suspension is mounted to a highly rigid Cradle Mount System, and features a wider track and longer wheel travel. Together they deliver flatter cornering as well as a quieter, more comfortable ride over all road surfaces. REAR SUSPENSION Expertly balancing sporty handling with refinement, the new double wishbone rear suspension handles rough roads and sharp corners with poise and precision. To minimise noise and vibration in the cabin, all suspension links and the rear differential are rubber-isolated from their rigid subframe, which is further insulated from the body by larger rubber mounts.  OTHER PETROL CARS YOU MAY BE INTERESTED IN outback 2.5i SE NavPlus | From £30,295 Full colour touch screen SatNavBuilt in reversing camera with on screen guidesKeyless smart entryPush button start More Details Feedback From The Web Follow Subaru WANT TO STAY IN TOUCH?

Email Address UNCOMMON SAFETY FEATURES Subaru knows the best way to survive a collision is to avoid one, so the Outback's permanent Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive agility and active safety systems will help keep you from experiencing its acclaimed crashworthiness. COLLISION AVOIDANCE Many of the same features which make the Outback so rewarding to drive also contribute to keeping its occupants out of harm's way. The lower centre of gravity of the Subaru BOXER engine enhances the stable, responsive handling of its permanent Symmetrical AWD. The Vehicle Dynamics Control fitted as standard and generously sized brakes endow it with athletic reflexes, whilst the added precision of the Cradle Mount System for the front suspension and steering equip the driver for excellent evasive abilities. All of this, coupled with world renowned Subaru build quality, make the Subaru Outback the ideal choice to keep you and family safe regardless of what the weather throws at you. PASSIVE SAFETY FEATURES Even with the most advanced active safety systems, sometimes an accident is unavoidable. The Outback is designed to protect its occupants with a series of advanced systems and features, balancing rigid strength with controlled deformation in key areas to better mitigate impact forces. The Cradle Mount System for the engine and front suspension effectively lengthens the front crumple zone and helps guide the engine and gearbox under the cabin in the event of a heavy front-end impact.Each side door includes two side-impact protection beams. A comprehensive suite of air bags, whiplash-reducing front seats, retracting pedals and 3-point seat belts help protect occupants directly. It's a core value of the Subaru philosophy that peace of mind is the first step in providing driving enjoyment. BRAKING SYSTEM The standard 4-wheel disc brakes include lightweight aluminium rear callipers and a redesigned booster for more reassuring brake feel, along with a 4-channel Anti-lock Braking System (ABS). Electronic Brake-force Distribution reapportions front and rear- braking pressure when the vehicle is loaded. Brake Assist provides provides maximum braking force in the event of sudden braking should the driver not apply enough brake pressure quickly enough. And Subaru's innovative 'Hill Holder' functionality helps prevent rollback when starting off on a 5% or steeper grade, by holding the vehicle on the brakes for an addtional second after the driver releases the brake pedal. RING-SHAPED REINFORCEMENT FRAMES The Ring-Shaped Reinforcement Frames strengthen the passenger cabin from the roof down to the doors, pillars and floor. This design helps to divert and dissipate impact energy away from the occupants in a collision. The front crumple zone is integral to the frame, whilst the cradle mount for the engine and front suspension is designed to help keep these components away from the passenger compartment in a frontal impact. SEATS, SEAT BELTS AND AIRBAGS Standard on the Outback are front, front-side and curtain airbags. Height-adjustable front seat belts include pre-tensioners to hold passengers firmly in place, and load limiters that minimise forces to the chest. In a rear collision, front seats utilise new, more rigid frames, redesigned headrests and a new system incorporating energy-absorbing mountings for the inner seat springs, all to helping to reduce the chance of whiplash.  OTHER PETROL CARS YOU MAY BE INTERESTED IN outback 2.5i SE NavPlus | From £30,295 Full colour touch screen SatNavBuilt in reversing camera with on screen guidesKeyless smart entryPush button start More Details Feedback From The Web Follow Subaru WANT TO STAY IN TOUCH?

Text: John Barker / Photos: Andy Morgan October 2004 Remember the last generation Legacy? Thought not, but there's more chance of you remembering this one, thanks to the intriguingly named 3.0R spec B. This sporty range-topper comes with a 242bhp flat-six, an Impreza STi-based six-speed gearbox and, of course, four-wheel drive. Claimed performance is zero to 60mph in 6.5sec and 151mph all-out, and this generously equipped saloon costs a very keen ΂£26,500, or ΂£27,500 in 'Sports Tourer' estate form. If you're at all mechanically minded, you'll spot that the drivetrain of the spec B Legacy is similar to that of the 911 Carrera 4, only reversed. If the Subaru's flat-six serves up anything of the character of the Porsche's, it could be on to something. The engine can already be found in the nose of the regular Legacy 3.0R and Outback but coupled to an auto 'box. The new six-speed manual built for the spec B uses only about half of the components from the Impreza, the casing and gear teeth design being new and intended to make the unit more refined. Visually, the spec B is distinguished from the 3.0R only by slightly wider seven-spoke alloys and black headlamp surrounds. That's it. If we're being polite, it's discreet, if we're being honest, it's rather bland. The Legacy is Japan's Car of the Year 2003/2004 and is, says Subaru, a rival for the Jaguar XJ and BMW 5-series, yet it's not a big car and appears narrow, especially when viewed from the rear. Then again, lack of bulk is a good thing in a sports saloon, and the specification suggests that some of the Impreza WRX and STi magic has been weaved into this more restrained, more mature package. Bilstein supplies STi-style inverted struts and complementing the four-wheel-drive system's viscous centre diff is a limited-slip rear diff. The interior is simply styled and tidily finished with decently textured plastics, some steel grey highlights and leather, which is standard. Refined this Legacy certainly is; at idle the air conditioning fan on its lowest speed vies with the flat-six for aural dominance. Blip the throttle and there's just a hint of flat-six rumble. For me, the seat didn't go quite low enough and the lack of wheel reach adjustment is unexpected, but the driving position is sound and the wheel sportily small. The ride is quite knobbly around town - you find yourself steering around potholes and slightly raised drain covers - but feels settled and well-controlled at speed. The flat-six is strong and smooth at moderate revs, and the gearshift feels leggy but satisfyingly positive and mechanical, allied to well-stacked ratios. Wind the engine right round to the redline and it stays creamy smooth and keeps piling on the power, finally taking on the appealing, gruff zing of a 911 motor through the last 1000rpm. You don't really have to go there, though; the Legacy feels at its keenest hauling hard in the low- and mid-range. Despite relatively narrow tyres for the rim diameter - mere 215/45 section ZR18s - traction is never an issue, even in the wet. Grip is fine too, the limit identified by modest understeer, while mid-corner poise is comfortable and assured. It's not an especially dynamic or involving drive though, thanks mainly to the numbness of the steering. Subaru hopes to tempt buyers upgrading from Imprezas but I can't quite see it. The spec B delivers good pace but little else of the Impreza's up front character. Nor can I see many Jaguars or BMWs of any denomination being traded against it; it feels caught between two range sizes and on price is more aligned with 3-series BMWs and top-line Jaguar X-types. The Legacy is a fine car with a dash of character and plenty of standard kit, including leather and sat-nav, but its driving experience doesn't lodge in the part of the brain labelled 'must have'.

It’s the new Subaru Justy, a three-cylinder supermini based on the Daihatsu Sirion (tested in 1.5-litre guise two weeks ago). This Justy has a 1.0-litre three-cylinder motor also used in the Toyota Aygo/Citroën C1/Peugeot 107 triplets, as well as the Sirion. The platform underneath it originally came from the previous-generation Toyota Yaris. And unlike previous Justys, it’s strictly front-drive only. Besides all those things, though, this new Justy is all Subaru. What’s it like? Just look at the bonnet if you want a measure of how worried this car is about its identity. It has two badges – one to tell you it’s a Subaru and an odd ‘J’ badge, presumably to let you know it’s also a Justy. Inside there’s loads of space and plenty of ingenious and practical cubby holes. You also get most of the kit you would want or need, but nothing frivolous. So you get air-con, electric windows all round, a CD player and even an auxiliary input socket for your MP3 player. Unfortunately the quality of materials used in the cabin isn’t as well judged, and the overall design feels a bit staid. On the road, the first thing you’ll notice is the supple ride – thank long-travel suspension and squidgy 65-profile tyres for that. The second thing you notice, however, is the buzzy engine. It’s game, but it’s always vocal and the note bounces around the boxy cabin, giving off an unpleasant resonance. You get a nasty buzz through the gearshift too. But these are the two extremes of the Justy’s dynamic repertoire. For the most part it’s a competent - if entirely forgettable - supermini. Should I buy one? The real killer blow to the Justy’s credibility is its price. For four quid more, you can have a Mazda 2, our current favourite supermini. Having said that, the Justy does get a five-year warranty, and Subaru only plans to import 1000 into the UK this year, so it’ll be rare and residual values should be strong. So it’s not bad, the new Justy. It’s just not quite a good enough supermini to stand out in a very competitive segment, nor is it a good enough Subaru to bring anything new and interesting to the market for small hatches. More’s the pity.
