Japan Used Subaru R2 for Sale

The Subaru R2 was launched in Japan on December 8, 2003, and the R2 name was inspired by the Subaru R-2, the kei car model that was manufactured between 1969 and 1972 by Subaru.

The R2 exterior reflects influence from Andreas Zapatinas, who worked at Alfa Romeo before moving to Subaru. The R2 is the first production of Subaru to sport a new family look, including the aviation-inspired spread wings grille that is also used by Tribeca and Subaru Impreza.

The R2's exterior dimensions are largely similar to its predecessor, the Subaru Pleo, but unlike the Subaru Pleo, the R2 is deliberately rounded, less space efficient form. The two lower engine options are available with either a manual transmission or a CVT. The supercharged engine is coupled to a sportshift version of the CVT and Both front wheel drive and all wheel drive are available. Initially, the R2 was available in 11 colors and 3 trim levels.
