Make this the new SVX
.
In the tradition of bringing vehicles with advanced technology to the market, I think that this would make a good model for the new SVX. This is Subaru's vision of the 4-passenger hybrid grand touring car. It drools sexiness, .

Re: Make this the new SVX
I really doubt we'd see this in our market if at all. I like the idea and the clearly futuristic design going on here.

Re: Make this the new SVX
there once was a rumor that the design language used on that car would possibly be used to resurrect a 2011-2012 GT coupe... a possible SVX successor...
But it was only a rumor. Unlikely anyway, and not clear as to whether they meant an additional coupe, or if they were talking about the FT-86 project coupe, which Subaru and Toyota are working on. But I don't necessarily think this hybrid tourer concept bears relevance to a direct new product, though. a tech showcase, and a new design language to float for public opinion...

Re: Make this the new SVX
I think it's fugly and I certainly hope nothing like that ever wears an SVX badge. It doesn't look like a "Grand Tourer" to me. More like, "just another 2-door mpv concept with big wheels and stupid doors".

Re: Make this the new SVX
I saw that car in person a couple of weeks ago. It's very interesting, but certainly looks better in photographs.

Re: Make this the new SVX
Great minds think alike I seen a variant of this video a few weeks ago and thought the same thing!
That car is lush! So beautiful... it's something I would be eager to drive, like the feeling I have with the SVX. And not so quick with the "it'll never come to market" comments. The SVX made it... this looks like a real winner! (but I wouldn't hold my breath on it ) Did you see how sexy it looks driving in the background on the screen? Mmm... just mmm!!
