The Subaru Asahi is a
New Car, positioned as a compact imported SUV, and also the brand's entry-level new energy vehicle lineup in China. It measures 4495 mm in length and has a wheelbase of 2670 mm. Its hatchback-and-a-half-door design features a hexagonal grille and sharp LED headlights forming a "wing" shape. Black wheel arches and a 220 mm ground clearance give it the appearance of a raised hatchback from a distance. With a drag coefficient of 0.30 and a low tailgate opening, loading and unloading luggage is easier. Compared to the
commercial vehicle Tourneo, it is half a meter shorter, making underground parking more flexible. Compared to the used XV, it has 8% more weld points, resulting in better body rigidity.
The interior features a two-tone black/titanium gray finish, an 11.6-inch vertical central touchscreen with CarPlay wireless mirroring, and a semi-digital instrument cluster. The seats have a high hip point, 8-way power adjustment for the front seats, and adjustable backrests in the rear with an almost flat floor, ensuring comfort for three people sitting in the middle. The trunk has a standard capacity of 420 L, and a depth of 1.8 m when the 4/6 split-folding fold-down doors are folded down. It can even accommodate skis laid horizontally. The space is more organized than most small SUVs in pure electric
new energy vehicles, eliminating concerns about battery protrusion.
The engine is a 2.5L horizontally opposed four-cylinder producing 169 horsepower, paired with a CVT that simulates 8 gears, achieving a combined fuel consumption of 7.2 L/100 km. It features symmetrical all-wheel drive with X-MODE, a multi-plate clutch for limited slip, and can even handle sandy slopes with only one wheel on the ground. The chassis uses a MacPherson strut front suspension and a double wishbone rear suspension, with a ground clearance of 220 mm, providing stability at high speeds and smooth driving on rough roads. The steering rack is the same as the WRX, with reduced play compared to the older model. The EyeSight infotainment system comes standard with adaptive cruise control, lane centering, and collision avoidance braking, saving effort on long journeys.
Compared to the used XV, the new car adds connected car features and driver assistance systems; compared to commercial MPVs, it retains all-wheel drive and a compact size; compared to other new energy vehicles, it eliminates the hassle of charging stations, making it suitable for both city commuting and weekend light off-roading.
