That was then. This is now. Presumably they are learning, I don't hear any rumours of a new SVX.
Quote:
Subaru/Fuji has for years been thinking the same way, using the USA as their biggest market to dictate what they design, and so have only this year come up with a turbo diesel in their line up. Long after they have lost their market share in Europe. Over here all Subarus are tainted with the gas guzzler label, so nobody will buy them new as they lose too much second hand value. I have more SVXs in my back yard than there are Tribecas on the road in Ireland. Anybody wants a vehicle that size will buy a diesel Mercedes or Audi Q7. They would sell all the turbo diesel 7-seater wagons they could make on this side of the pond. That is what the people desire.
