Subaru Traviq (Japan) Subaru Tribeca (Southeast Asia and Australia)
The Subaru Exiga (Japanese: スバル・エクシーガ, Subaru Ekushīga) is a mid-size MPV that debuted as a concept car during the 2007 Tokyo Motor Show. According to the Japanese Subaru press introduction materials, the name "Exiga" is a neologism combination of the words "exciting" and "active". The Exiga name itself was taken from two unrelated Subaru concept cars: the Alpha Exiga from 1995 and the Exiga from 1997.
The vehicle boasts a supersize panoramic glass roof and theater-style seating, with rear passengers sitting a little higher than those in front. Seats in the concept vehicle were upholstered in leather and trimmed in pearl white and blue. The rear seatbacks incorporate fold-down tray tables, similar to those on airplanes.
The instrument panel in the concept vehicle offered displays from eight monitors, providing excellent visibility around the vehicle, and also housed a clear blue multi-display zone. There continues to be indirect lighting in the side doors and ceiling in the production vehicle, providing soft ambient light at night.
The engine is a 1994 cc turbocharged H4 based on the Subaru Impreza WRX coupled to Subaru's 5EAT automatic transmission used in the Subaru Legacy and Subaru Tribeca.
According to an article from Autoblog,[1] Subaru introduced the seven seat wagon in the Japanese market 18 June 2008.[2]
Subaru never sold the Exiga in North America, having opted to sell the similarly-sized Subaru Tribeca 3-row crossover instead. However, both the Exiga and Tribeca were sold in Australia and Singapore. With Subaru having ceased production of the Tribeca in 2014, it was expected that the company might bring the Exiga to North America as a replacement and entry into the seven-passenger crossover SUV market, but Subaru chose not to because of the Exiga's size and its intent to produce a Tribeca successor in the United States, called the Ascent.[3]
