    Subaru's First EV To Arrive In 2020

      Will be based on one of their current models

    When Subaru launched their new modular global platform in the Impreza, they said the platform was designed to accept different powertrains such as hybrid and electric. According to a report from Autocar, Subaru's first electric model is just around the corner.

    Subaru's chief designer, Mamoru Ishii told the outlet that the electric vehicle would be a variant of one of their current models and will launch in 2020.

    “Subaru cars are designed to support people’s lifestyles, so it should not be a case of designing the car for the powertrain. If customers want change we’ll respond - our cars are about customers loving using them how they are designed - but we are not going to change our design focus just to highlight a new way of powering the car,” said Ishii.

    Ishii declined to say how far Subaru is in development of the EV, but sources tell Autocar that crash tests have started to determine if the battery location is safe.

    If we were to guess what model Subaru is using for their electric vehicle, the Impreza seems like a safe bet.

    • beautiful pictures. Yes, the scenery is nice, but I complimenting you on taking nice pictures.  Canada...ANYWHERES in Canada right about now is SCORCHING hot.  
    • Yes.  Id say it is cultural as well. SO much so that the Grand Ole Party knows this soooooo well that they have Gerrymandered the electoral map to favour them in certain states and they keep on trying to Gerrymander the phoque out of it as we speak. To squeeze as much maga juice from the maga fruit as they can.  Because the grand Ole Party knows that their are some deep rooted cultural issues going on.  To be fair, the reason why there are soooo many cultural issues is BECAUSE the Grand Ole Party has created these cultural divides to begin with.  To be even fairer though, some of these cultural issues have always been there from the beginnings of your country.   Some of it is present in my country as its the same people that came over from England and France to colonize this place called North America.  Add the Spanish for your country and well...you get cultural wars that were never really resolved from the wars of Europe 200-300-400 years ago between these European countries... This divide has always existed is what Im saying.  And this divide not only implies cultural dominance over one another, but religious dominance over one another too.  And all this is even BEFORE Christopher Columbus sailed the ocean blue in 1492.   Then add slavery to the mix and I know you know what it is Im saying.   In the middle of a tariff war with our closest and dearest neighbour, all of Canada decided to unite and be united like Canada has ever been in  our history...yet, L'office de la lnague Francaise, the French language police if you will, decided to target a Montreal Pub that has an ambiguous English name.  Places of business NEED to be in French.  A new by-law that was given more teeth to enforce a couple of years ago. It has always existed this law since the late 1970s or early 1980s but a couple of years ago,  it was pushed to the front again...  The Burgundy Lion Pub.  Long story short, politicians will ALWAYS try to divide and conquer the populace.  But its up to the populace to decide what they really want to do with their society.  And what Im seeing is that a certain group of people in the their US would rather sink their country into authoritarianism and with it the world JUST to try to stick it to them libtards... Now this is an angle from the perspective of a person that hates the extreme right. Im sure the extreme left tries to divide and conquer too in the US.  But NOBODY from either side, nor from the middle, is trying to love each other but only hatred, bigotry, sexism and rascism is bubbling up to the surface.  THIS is what Im seeing.  Sans internet. But an observation from all kinds of sources. 
    • No problem. I am just as frustrated. 
    • @ccap41 @G. David Felt @A Horse With No Name Thank you for allowing me to express my anger and frustrations
