Subaru Turbo Parallel Hybrid concept - 56k, go buy a Neon
With the key word "Think. Feel. Drive. - Creating new value through the crossover concept", Subaru's core message is to appeal a car that realizes pleasurable driving, very high safety and excellent environmental performance. In the booth, the concept car "B5-TPH" which equipped with original hybrid system "Turbo parallel hybrid (TPH)", technology exhibit "IVX-II" next generation of intelligent vehicle which ensuring driving pleasure, comfort, and advanced safety, and new crossover vehicle "B9 TRIBECA" (US model) will be exhibited. By exhibiting these vehicles, Subaru will appeal the new areas of driving pleasure and new functions by integrating the different values.
Major exhibits of Subaru booth B5-TPH -concept car- The B5-TPH concept car was designed around the concept theme of a car for long-weekend gataways get aways for couples. The vehicle develops the theme of crossover elements in a future car .a crossover between a gasoline engine and electric motor, and between a sport wagon and sport utility vehicle (SUV). Incorporating Subaru's signature Symmetrical All Wheel Drive (AWD), the concept car provides an efficiency and comfort glimpse of a future sport specialty car that further enriches the efficiency and comfort. Major features of the B5-TPH 1. The Turbo Parallel Hybrid (TPH) power train, a new AWD hybrid system, has been applied to 2.0liter Horizontally-Opposed turbo charged engine in the B5-TPH 2. By combining the electric motor and the Miller cycle boxer turbo engine (2.0L), the engine has achieved fuel economy improvements and reduced CO2 emissions. This superb, all-range performance is enabled by the motor assist feature, a motor that is designed to boost engine torque at low revolutions. 3. The vehicle promises versatile handling and maneuverability both on and rough road with its ground clearance of 200 mm and large-diameter tires. 4. The designs express the pleasure of driving, and of being driven as a passenger. Blending beautiful lines and the characteristics of the sport wagon, personal coupe and SUV, the car accentuates the crossover of its designs and function.

That thing needs a tailgate! You'll never get anything in the back of that thing. Other than that and the green (WTF) I don't mind it.
hehe, it's a hybrid hybrid.

I like it, but the greens gotta go. And those back seats don't look very comfortable to me. Needs more refining.
