JDM Subaru Exiga Australian Version review:

EXIGA is Sixth Subaru

Subaru today confirmed the innovative and versatile EXIGA All-Wheel Drive wagon will join its Australian line-up later this year.

Unveiling a Japanese domestic-specification EXIGA at Melbourne International Motor Show, Subaru Managing Director, Nick Senior, said the six-seater family wagon will go on sale around November.

It will feature automatic transmission as standard and be powered by a normally aspirated four cylinder 2.5 litre horizontally opposed Boxer engine.

Mr Senior said: "The entry level EXIGA will include a DVD entertainment system as standard for second and third row seats."

He confirmed EXIGA will also feature some yet-to-be revealed innovative technology.

"This will be very much a next generation Subaru vehicle and will, of course, focus on the safety, engineering integrity, durability and innovation for which we are renowned," he said

EXIGA features a spacious cabin with sweeping dashboard, individual second row seats and a stow-away third row bench seat.

Mr Senior said the Japanese domestic specification model displayed at the Melbourne show varies from the Australian versions, but has the same exterior shape.

Australia will be the first export market for EXIGA.

Pricing will be announced at the November launch.
