[QUOTE="Amirul, post: 1064683759, member: 173424"] Subaru has pulled off the veil off their new Subaru Global Platform at the Singapore Motorshow 2017. The unveiling was made by Motor Image, the exclusive distributor of Subaru vehicles across 9 countries in Asia. [IMG]https://www.zerotohundred.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/2017-subaru-impreza-launch-singapore-motorshow_5917-700x467.jpg[/IMG] The new Subaru Global Platform is a brand new revamp of the company’s vehicle architecture, elevating overall vehicle performance and at the same time offering unparalleled driving experience with optimised safety. The all-new Subaru Impreza will be the introductory model to fully incorporate the Subaru Global Platform. Speaking at the launch, Mr Glenn Tan, Executive Director Tan Chong International Ltd said, “With significant improvement to its overall vehicle performance, the new Subaru Global Platform is set to be a game changer for the Subaru brand.

In addition, this single design concept gives an advantage in terms of manufacturing capability as it allows the brand to produce platform components for multiple models in one single production facility.

The new Subaru Global Platform is developed with focus on these 3 aspects:[B] 1. Confidence [/B][IMG]https://www.zerotohundred.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/2017-subaru-impreza-launch-singapore-motorshow_5921-700x467.jpg[/IMG] As the cornerstone of all Subaru vehicles, overall safety empowers its drivers with the confidence behind the wheel, regardless of terrain and weather condition.

Subaru claims the new platform will help in straight line stability, as the more responsive steering allows for easier correction when encountering crosswinds or rough terrain.
