Subaru & Toyota Officially Confirm Joint-Development of Rear-Wheel Drive Compact Coupes
Just the other day we told you about the rumours concerning Subaru’s plans to co-develop a new rear-wheel drive coupe with Toyota. Well, today the two Japanese automakers made it official by announcing that they are to jointly develop a, affordable, compact rear-wheel-drive sports car that will be marketed by both Toyota and Subaru. According to Toyota and Subaru’s official statement, the compact RWD coupes will be based on an all-new platform with power coming from a Subaru’s range of horizontally-opposed (boxer) engines. The market introduction of both coupes is targeted for the end of 2011, while production is to take place at a new plant that will be built at Fuji Heavy Industries’ (the maker of Subaru cars) Gunma Manufacturing Division in Japan's Gunma Prefecture.
