10th July, 2006


Subaru achieved all-time record sales of 3,901 vehicles in June, according to official VFACTS figures released last week.

The previous best brand result was 3,874 in June 2005.

Last month was also an all-time record for Impreza, with 1,027 sales, 19.6 per cent ahead of June 2005.

Sales of 1,403 Foresters meant it was the first time two Subaru models have achieved 1,000+ sales in one month.

Liberty sales of 747 were up 12.8 per cent on the previous June and Outback increased 8.9 per cent with 724 sales, achieving its second best-ever month.

Subaru’s market share for the month was 4.0 per cent.

Subaru Managing Director, Nick Senior, said: “We’re delighted by our sales success in June.

“The fact that we had two models achieving more than 1,000 sales is a great indication of the level of interest in Subarus."

“We’re convincing increasing numbers of people that they buy into a long-term beneficial relationship when choosing a Subaru."

“That’s been highlighted recently by Forester being named safest used car of the past 17 years, our 2.5 litre turbocharged engine winning an international engineering award and Outback and Forester receiving recognition for outstanding retained value."

“We also work hard to bring genuine value and specification improvements with the passing of each model year and 2006 is no exception, as we head towards revised Liberty and Outback, including re-introduction of the Liberty GT in September.”
