Subaru has revealed a teaser image showing its new XV compact crossover due to make an appearance at the upcoming 2017 Geneva Motor Show.
Blending a sporty and rugged design, the new Subaru XV is based on the XV Concept shown last year and the production version will be showcased in March at the Geneva Motor Show.
The second generation XV will feature a new headlight and taillight design, as well as a new wheel design and a sportier silhouette with more pronounced body lines. Overall, the design is still recognisably similar to the outgoing model.
In terms of engines, the new XV will be powered by a revised 2.0-litre Boxer engine, the same engine currently found under the XV’s bonnet. Official outputs and specification have yet to be revealed. Subaru’s latest Eyesight assistant technology and Starlink infotainment system is also expected to feature in the new XV.
Subaru South Africa has confirmed that the new XV is expected to arrive in South Africa in July 2017.
