Subaru’s iconic boxer engine, a hallmark of its performance and driving dynamics, is set to phase out in Europe by 2027 as part of the automaker’s full shift toward electric vehicles in the region. The move aligns with broader industry trends and regulatory pressures pushing manufacturers toward electrification. While the decision signals a major change for Subaru’s lineup, it also reflects the growing demand for zero-emission alternatives in key markets. Customers currently relying on the brand’s distinctive engine layout may face limited options in the coming years.
Subaru’s boxer engine is reportedly leaving Europe after 2027 as the automaker prepares to sell only EVs on the continent.
