      Yeah, 4 of them built on the joint subaru-toyota platform.

      Subaru Solterra = Toyota bZ
      Subaru Uncharted = Toyota C-HR
      Subaru Trailseeker = Toyota bZ Woodland
      Subaru Getaway = Toyota Highlander

          What were you expecting?

          Uninspired SUVs are what people will buy. Once they’ve sold a few million of those then you can expect something “inspiring”.

          They literally make them, sharing a platform isn’t like badge engineering. Collaborating with Toyota is why they could make their BRZ so cheap, probably the same thing applies here.

          They’re working on an in-house platform though, if you want something with more Subaru involvement.

                My point is we have no idea what they’ll be like.
