I can’t say that I’m going to rush out and buy one of these but if I had the money, maybe I would and I’m sure that lots of people will. At Outdoor Revival we like our vehicles as much as the next person, me personally I like my pickup, but I do have a family so a nice SUV would go down a treat…

By the way, LAAS stands for the Los Angeles Auto Show which is running from the 18th to the 27th November.

Here’s some more info on the Subaru VIZIV-7 SUV:

Subaru Canada, Inc. (SCI) is pleased to announce the world debut of the VIZIV-7 SUV Concept at the Los Angeles Auto Show today. VIZIV is a name derived from Vision for Innovation. The Subaru VIZIV is a concept series that embodies enjoyment and peace of mind, while showing a future glimpse of what Subaru will provide its customers.

 

With the VIZIV-7 SUV Concept, Subaru is demonstrating its thinking about how big a future SUV from Subaru can be.

“The concept expresses our core brand values, safety, dependability, capability for outdoor activities and a forward looking attitude,” said Takeshi Tachimori, corporate executive vice president, Fuji Heavy Industries, LTD. “We know customers in this segment want a larger vehicle and the next three-row from Subaru will be the biggest Subaru vehicle ever.”

With full three-row capability and Subaru’s DYNAMIC x SOLID design philosophy, Subaru VIZIV-7 SUV Concept shows the size direction of the all-new three-row midsize SUV to be introduced to North American market in early 2018.
