Subaru plans to stop offering new cars with internal combustion engines in Europe by late 2027 at the latest and will limit its lineup to three electric models developed jointly with Toyota: Solterra, Uncharted and E-Outback. The company cites EU CO₂ fleet limits as well as high homologation and adaptation costs for small volumes. Subaru reports only 23,000 sales in Europe in 2025 (Germany 2024: 4,510), which makes the switch to pure battery-electric vehicles for the region appear unavoidable. » More on heise.de

Subaru of America cut its tooling development time by more than 50% and reduced total prototyping and tooling costs by around 70% by using the T25 High Speed Head on the Stratasys F770. The T25 prints large-format tools up to 2.3 times faster and enables nearly twice-as-fast printing of a 36-inch tool compared with the standard head. Subaru consolidated production in-house, improved repeatability and reduced dependence on external manufacturing service providers. The T25 is now available for industrial applications. » More on de.investing.com
