What makes a Subaru, a Subaru?
Making safe, well engineered cars. And making a difference.
The Subaru R1e. Our vision of the future. Based on the Subaru R1 minicar sold in Japan, the R1e was developed by Subaru in partnership with the Tokyo Electric Power Company, Inc. (TEPCO). The utility has been testing a fleet of R1e electric cars since 2006. As part of a U.S. test program, two of the Subaru R1e electric cars will join the New York Power Authority (NYPA) fleet.
Some Highlights:
The two-seat Subaru R1e is capable of driving at speeds up to 65 mph with a range of up to 50 miles.
It can be charged up to 80% capacity within 15 minutes or fully charged overnight at home using a regular domestic outlet.
Subaru has committed to being a world leader in electric powered vehicles. The R1e is already proving itself in major urban areas such as Tokyo and London.
The R1e has already been nominated by the Japanese government for an award known as the “Commendation for Global Warming Prevention Activity.”
