Subaru Reserves 12 Nameplates Evoking Adventure
• Subaru reserves several names that evoke adventure.
Subaru is known as a brand that appeals to outdoor enthusiasts. With models like the Outback and Forester, and more recently the Crosstrek, the automakers aims to please those who like to go on weekend adventures, be it biking, kayaking, skiing, etc.
In fact, the Outback name reflects the type of adventures many owners participate in. Recently, the company added Wilderness variants to its product lineup, to offer buyers models that offer a bit more off-road capability.
It appears the company is not going to stop there. According to AutoGuide, the manufacturer has reserved several outdoors-flavoured names with the American authorities, more precisely with the USPTO (United States Patent and Trademark Office). No fewer than 12 names have been reserved.
Of course, reserving a name doesn't mean it will be used, whether to designate a model, a variant, accessories, etc. However, the en masse reservation of a number of names means something is brewing on the campsite fire.
