Well, the point of the ad (it's a Subaru Australia ad) is to show and sell the new XV (Impreza based crossover vehicle). And the theme of the ad is "All the best we've done."
To get that point across the viewer has to recognize iconic cars that Subaru is famous for, and the SVX clearly fails in that department. The 360, 22b, WRX, Outback, Brat, etc. are the successful cars Subaru is known for and the viewer will recognize. I'm surprised the SVX even made it!
