The 2015 Subaru XV has had $1250 slashed from its price along with interior tweaks and Subaru’s new touchscreen infotainment unit featured across the range.

THE 2015 SUBARU XV has had $1250 cut from its price which when added to the $750 price cut announced in December 2014 realises a total price cut of $2000 across the entire XV range, with prices now starting from $26,490 (+ORC).

In addition to the price cuts, Subaru has made its tablet-esque Starlink infotainment unit available across the entire range. This unit has already been rolled out across Outback, Liberty and Forester.

Subaru Managing Director, Nick Senior, said: “The XV has always been a great value for money story. This move takes that value for money platform to a new level.

“The small SUV segment is highly competitive and with this realignment, and all the extra equipment, we are confident of growing XV sales.

“Combine those virtues with Subaru’s Japanese build quality and design, and it’s another positive move to ensure the optimum result for our customers.

“The price drops of $2000 across the entire XV range, come with added features, including improved interiors and infotainment.”
