SUBARU Southern Africa’s award-winning 2021 XV is now available in South Africa, sporting refreshed looks and even more technology.
The updated Subaru XV crossover features an updated lower grille design with added contours around the fog lamps and bumper trim elements. Added to the athletic stance, new 17and 18-inch machine-finished alloy wheels bring a sense of energy and adventure to the compact SUV highlighting its modern yet rugged nature.
The XV’S fresh design and class-leading 220mm of ground clearance ensures it is equally capable and at home whether on a slippery adventure trail or a busy city street. An update to the colour palette means that Sunshine Orange now makes way for a new Plasma Yellow Pearl and the old Quartz Blue Pearl is replaced by Horizon Blue Pearl.
Subaru Intelligent Drive (Si-drive) has also found its way into the small SUV. Activated from buttons on the steering wheel, the driving mode selector ensures the best possible engine and transmission behaviour, offering a choice of comfortable and frugal efficiency in “I” mode or a sportier drive in “S” mode.
