Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd. (FHI), parent company of Subaru Automobiles, today confirmed the world production premiere of the all new Subaru XV (European specification) at the 64^th Frankfurt Motor Show, September 13 – 25, 2011. Subaru’s brand new crossover will be unveiled to the world media at a press conference scheduled for 09.30am on September 13. Subaru say: "The Subaru XV defines a whole new generation of Subaru crossover vehicle. The Concept version of the XV received a warm welcome when it was first shown at the Auto Shanghai motor show in April, its design successfully combining the latest distinctive Subaru elements with the commanding silhouette expected of a crossover. The final production version of the XV remains true to the Concept and Subaru is confident that it will bring something fresh, as well as a new level of engineering excellence, to the segment." Subaru also expects the XV will bring a new type of customer to the  brand – "people who are confident in the knowledge of the company’s AWD and engineering expertise and who are also looking for the flexibility and lifestyle statement that owning a crossover brings." The Subaru XV is due for launch in the UK in early 2012.
