A Bold New Look and Bold New Name
There are three key elements to the new design found on the Subaru B9X.One of the key focal points of the all-new 2006 Subaru B9X is the bold newgrille and fascia design. A central air intake is flanked by two "wings" thatrelate directly to the history of Subaru as an aircraft manufacturer -- illustrating the Subaru commitment to engineering excellence.

Also prominent in the new design is a curved roof line that expresses asense of dynamic motion. Finally, powerful fender and wheel forms create thefeeling of agility and driving performance.

The Subaru B9X design theme first appeared on the 2003 Geneva Show Car,the Subaru B11S, and was further refined on the Subaru B9SC and R1e concept cars, which both made their U.S. debut at the 2004 North AmericanInternational Auto Show. As a model which has inherited this design theme,Subaru has named this vehicle the B9X.

The 2006 Subaru B9X will be built at the Subaru of Indiana Automotiveplant in Lafayette, Indiana. For the most accurate and up-to-date informationon this vehicle, visit http://www.subaru.com.
