    Subaru XV Gets A New Name

    When the Subaru XV crossover arrives onto our shores sometime next year, it will come with a different name.

    During a presentation at the LA Auto Show this week, Subaru of America's Executive Vice President, Thomas J. Doll confirmed the Impreza-based crossover will be named the Subaru XV Crosstrek, not the Impreza Outback Sport.

    Why the name change? Well there could be two reasons. The first is the Impreza is known as the inexpensive compact car in Subaru's lineup. By separating all the different variants of the Impreza (XV Crosstrek, WRX, and STi), they can charge more for them. Secondly, Subaru has seen good sales results from separating the Legacy and Outback lines.

    The Subaru XV Crosstrek will make it's way to the US in 2012 as a 2013 model.

    I like it. I hope they stick the 2.5L in it though, because I've heard the new Impreza is rather anemic with the new smaller injun, if they try it in this higher-riding Crosstrek, they'll be asking fer trouble.

NO AI Robots are no where near the horizon of making money. NO FSD is a FAILURE as it is still only Level 2 certified driving, GM and Mercedes are farther ahead on self driving than Tesla now. Korea has level 3 self driving in certification now as well as 800V EV platforms something Tesla is failing on upgrading their EVs to. I totally get the used car market and anyone like this person who thinks they can sell it for more than they paid is just stupid.
