XV’s style of extra fun

LOOKING for a stylish crossover that delivers a fun driving experience, search no further with the newly introduced Subaru XV.

Representing the first full model change since the original XV was launched in 2012, this new generation XV will excite drivers in a multitude of settings, from urban driving to the great outdoors.

“The all-new Subaru XV is a bold statement that will cater to Malaysians who require the practical and functional features of a compact SUV for their everyday activities” said TC Subaru executive director Reza Mutalib at the XV’s launch recently.

The new XV is also the second model to employ the Subaru Global Platform which heightened the level of driving confidence, comfort and control with reduced body roll and shake.

It also comes with an 8.0-inch touch-screen display infotainment system with integrated navigation and smartphone connectivity for drivers to stay connected safely.

Among the key features the XV are a perky 2.0-litre direct injection boxer engine with 156PS, a symmetrical all-wheel drive equipped with X-Mode for better grip on slippery terrain, rugged and sporty design with enhanced interior and exterior quality, enhanced safety features such as seven SRS airbags and Steering Responsive Headlights (only for 2.0i-P)

Available colours are Sunshine Orange, Dark Blue Pearl, Pure White, Ice Silver Metallic, Dark Grey Metallic and Crystal Black Silica.

On-the-road price starts from RM118,819 inclusive of GST without insurance.
