Subaru Trezia: Geneva Launch

The Subaru Trezia When we got news that Subaru were taking their half of the Toyobaru project to Geneva – the Subaru FT-86 – for its first public outing, we did mention that there would also be another Subaru launch – the Subaru Trezia.

Ssangyong getting bullish with the Korando SX
