While I know that AWD is part of Subaru's DNA, other manufacturers are slowly encroaching into that territory (ie Audi offers AWD on every model as well). Subaru has to start differentiating itself on more than just AWD. Soon, it won't be anything special.

Replying to: rsholland (Oct 11, 2009 5:00 am) Lots of conceptual stuff. I wonder what a production model would end up looking like? Send me the first one. |

Replying to: robr2 (Oct 13, 2009 7:08 am) The AWD Fusion, Taurus, Venza, X-Type, Saab, SX4, Matrix, GTI, etc. never put any dents in Subaru's sales. In reality it's most high-end luxury makes that are offering AWD, and by doing so it only draws more attention to Subaru's value. |

Replying to: ateixeira (Oct 13, 2009 9:40 am) Right now Ford offers AWD on everything but the Mustang and Focus. Cadillac offers it on everything but the XLR and DTS. If Honda were to offer it, you'd see Subaru afraid. Was it you or Bob that said Subaru looks at the Crosstour as direct competition? If it were a bit prettier, Subaru would've been more concerned. |

Replying to: robr2 (Oct 13, 2009 9:53 am) SH-AWD is expensive to produce, so I doubt they'll put it on the Accord. Toyota owns part of Subaru, so they won't either. I dunno, not sure the big volume makes will go after the AWD segment if they see it as a shrinking pie. Especially in price-sensitive mainstream segments.
