The Subaru DL, GL, RX, GL10, and Loyale, produced from 1984 to 1989, were a series of compact cars that marked a significant shift in Subaru's identity. They were the first generation to utilize the EA82 engine, a horizontally-opposed four-cylinder that became synonymous with the brand. This generation offered a variety of body styles, including a two-door coupe, a three-door hatchback, a four-door sedan, and a five-door wagon. The DL was the base trim level, followed by the GL, which featured more amenities, and the RX, which focused on sportiness. The GL10 and Loyale were essentially rebranded versions of the GL and RX, respectively, marketed in specific markets.

These Subarus were known for their practicality, reliability, and affordability. They offered a comfortable ride and decent fuel economy, thanks to the EA82 engine's efficiency. While not particularly powerful, the EA82 was known for its durability and ease of maintenance. The cars' all-wheel drive system, available on certain models, provided enhanced traction and stability, making them popular in areas with challenging weather conditions. The design, although somewhat bland by today's standards, was functional and offered decent interior space for its size. Although lacking some of the modern safety features we take for granted today, the Subaru DL, GL, RX, GL10, and Loyale proved to be reliable and long-lasting vehicles, earning a loyal following among owners.
