Designed by renowned Italian designer Giorgetto Giugiaro, the SVX boasted a distinctive, aerodynamically sculpted body, with its signature "gullwing" doors opening upwards and a large, panoramic glass roof that extended the feeling of spaciousness within. Underneath its sleek exterior, the SVX housed a powerful 3.3-liter horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine, offering a unique blend of performance and luxury.

Furthermore, the SVX featured an advanced, fully independent electronic control system for the engine and transmission, optimizing performance and fuel efficiency. Although production was ultimately short-lived, the SVX left a lasting impression on the automotive landscape, showcasing Subaru's ambition to enter the premium sports car market with a distinctive and technologically advanced offering. Its unique blend of Italian design, Japanese engineering, and performance capabilities has garnered a dedicated following and solidified its place as a true automotive icon.
