 2019 MIAS - XV GT

The brand-new addition to the Subaru XV lineup, the GT edition showcases an exclusive design. The collaboration between Subaru’s former chief designer, Masahiko ‘Jack’ Kobayashi, and an engineering company Giken has given the car its sportier look. Masahiko ‘Jack’ Kobayashi is also famous for designing the WRX STI.

Speaking of its exterior designing, the car gets a new front bumper lip extension integrated with canards. It also features a longer roof spoiler, new side skirts, and an extension on the rear bumper. The XV GT rides on bespoke 18-inch wheels. Interior gets leather seats, which resemble the European grand tourers. To assist while parking, the car features the dual side view monitor system.
