No technical details have been revealed other than its pure-electric powertrain, but Subaru suggests it could be all-wheel drive with the driver \u201ccontrolling all four wheels at will\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/media.autoexpress.co.uk\/image\/private\/s--UWIga_eo--\/f_auto,t_content-image-full-mobile@1\/v1698252555\/autoexpress\/2023\/10\/Subaru%20Sports%20Mobility%20Concept-2.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>The Sport Mobility Concept features a higher ride height than traditional coupes. The box wheelarches housing turbofan wheels, squared bodywork with a flat bonnet and bluff front end give it plenty of presence. To the side we can see digital wing mirrors and lower down on the body it looks like forged carbon-reinforced plastic has been used.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Up front there are thin LED headlights, along with two larger sections that resemble\u00a0the classic secondary lights you&#x27;d\u00a0find on a rally car. At the rear there\u2019s more LED lighting and the \u2018SUBARU\u2019 lettering is lit up too.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Subaru&#x27;s return to WRC has been suggested a few times in recent months, with even Toyota chairman Akio Toyoda keen on helping Subaru return to the top step of rallying. We doubt the all-electric Sport Mobility Concept is a preview of a future WRC entrant, but it does show Subaru hasn\u2019t forgotten about its rich rally heritage.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Want the latest car news in your inbox?
