Does look good from the rear. It would be toned down abit but still looks nice, and I love the rear. Knowing are luck would be 2.5 engine or electric lol.

As has been said many times before, it'll probably be a 1.6L turbo hybrid..............

This ^^^^

It also looks a lot like the Subaru Prodrive P2.

Fingers crossed they will fit it with the 2.0 boxer engine, however I have a feeling it won't appear over here as nothing good ever does

Europe went to 2.5L because the 2.0L couldn't meet European emissions requirements.
The 2.5L has now gone the same way.
Markets for big power boxer engines are getting smaller and smaller - Australia is fast catching up and have emissions requirements currently based on Euro5, so not long before that market dries up.
With Subaru saying they will not go away from the traditional boxer layout hybrid is the only logical way.

That would be awesome if it actually came out like that. Plus doing away with the universally hated 2.5 makes sense.

If this ever gets made (doubtful) it won't look anything like that.
love the futuristic looks and maybe a performance electric 4wd rally racer might be the market to bring Subaru back into the performance world...
