The Japanese
automaker’s brand new motorsports livery takes after the Subaru World Rally
Team cars of the 1990s and 2000s, boasting a star cluster graphic to go with
the blue and gold theme. Subaru is also revising the structure of its U.S.
racing activities, where stage rallying, rallycross, record attempts, off-road
racing and circuit racing will all take place under the banner of Subaru
Motorsports.
The new design will
debut on January 14 in Detroit at the North American International Auto Show.
Fans and visitors alike will be able to admire the WR Blue Pearl base color
with gold-painted wheels, as well as the bright yellow graphics package, with
the Subaru star cluster on the doors and the prominent sweep that extends to
the B-pillars and roof.
Meanwhile, the red
Subaru Tecnica International (STI) logo can be found on the front side intakes,
rear wing endplates and trunklid vent panel. Subaru Motorsports will put this
new livery to work at Missouri’s Rally in the 100 Acre Wood, March 15-16, while
at the same time launching its 2019 ARA title defense.
