The 1989 Subaru XT and XT6 were distinct models within the Japanese manufacturer's lineup, both offering a unique blend of performance and practicality. The XT, known internally as the EA, was a sporty coupe, while the XT6, also known as the EA2, was a more spacious and practical wagon. Both vehicles featured Subaru's signature all-wheel drive system, providing excellent traction and handling in various conditions. Under the hood, they were powered by a 1.8-liter horizontally opposed four-cylinder engine, known for its smooth and quiet operation. The engine was available in naturally aspirated and turbocharged variations, the latter delivering a significant increase in power and performance.

Despite their similar underpinnings, the XT and XT6 catered to different needs. The XT, with its sleek two-door design, was aimed at drivers seeking a fun and engaging driving experience. The XT6, on the other hand, offered versatility and practicality with its spacious cargo area and hatchback design. Both models were equipped with a range of features, including power steering, power brakes, and air conditioning, making them comfortable and convenient for daily driving. While production of the XT and XT6 ended in 1991, these vehicles remain highly sought-after by enthusiasts for their unique styling, reliable performance, and all-wheel-drive capability. Today, they are cherished for their classic Subaru heritage and represent a unique chapter in the brand's history.
