Subaru is a global transportation manufacturer with two main businesses: automobiles and aircraft.
Subaru started out as Nakajima Aircraft Company, founded in 1917, just 14 years after the Wright brothers succeeded in the first powered flight in 1903.
By 1953, when we embarked on a new start as Fuji Heavy Industries, our automotive division had matured into its driving force. From the Subaru 360, to the Subaru 1000, to four-wheel drive cars, our car design is highly original and creative. Known for the Legacy, the Impreza, and the Forester, everyone loves our Subaru brand, established for its excellent driving performance.
