Introduction of Display

Presentation Stage
The most important factors for commercial vehicles are loading, comfort economy, safety, reliability and variety. The benefits achieved with Sambar's unique mechanisms, such as full-cab body, chassis frame structure, rear-mounted engine and independent four-wheel suspension are clearly explained using a cut-away model of the actual vehicle.
Subaru's guiding principle, which is particular about functionality and substance, is fully employed in commercial vehicles as well, and this is clear for all to see.

Characteristics of the Sambar Series
The requirements of the Japanese lifestyle have led to many commercial vehicles playing active roles as mini transporters. In mini commercial vehicles it is necessary that the five factors, namely loading, comfort, economy, safety, and reliability, be upgraded and still function in perfect harmony.
The Sambar realizes a high degree of safety in the event of a collision with the top-level cargo space in this class by adopting a full-cab body. Furthermore, due to the fact that its full-cab body has the wheel-well underneath the front seat, a comfortable and natural driving posture is achieved by giving leg space. Additionally, one of the Sambar's unique characteristics is that the rear tires maintain a sure grip on the road due to its rear-mounted engine layout, which offers its full driving power even when the cargo space is empty, while the four-wheel independent suspension ensures a stable and comfortable ride.

- Sambar truck 'Green'
The Sambar is based on its superior fundamental characteristics, such as chassis frame structure which also offers outstanding durability, and spacious cargo area thanks to its full-cab body. It provides for a fashionable truck that is suitable for use at gardening centers, tourist farms, etc. The robust cargo space created with natural materials gives a genuine wooden feel more after use. Also, its retro styling has a unique character that makes it stand out in the city and draws attention as an eye-catching vehicle at a shop. (Show Model)

- Samber Care Car
This car is specially designed for caregivers who play an active role giving such services. The Sambar's wide loading space is fully lined with stainless steel and can be used independently for ultraviolet sterilization of used implements. Work time can be used more efficiently as tools can be sterilized in this area while heading to the next destination. Furthermore, for added convenience, it comes equipped with such care service amenities as hand-washing facilities and a stretcher. (Intended for sale)

- Samber Low-bed Container Truck
This is an container truck designed for delivery use in urban areas for distributors mainly delivering small packages. The loading for delivery has been improved by taking full advantage of its rear-mounted engine layout in which all the power trains are assembled at the rear of the body. A walk-through space has been created in container efficient use of the central cargo area. Also, the inside of the container can easily be accessed thanks to its externally opening folding doors while enhancing the height of the central container area. (Intended for sale)

- Sambar Mobile Cafe
This is a concept model of a new type of itinerant, temporal store-vehicle, selling soft drinks at the park or the place of entertainment. We make this vehicle, the smart "mobile cafe" by setting a foldable counter table and side tarpaulin faced sidewalk, as well as the facility for cooking in the vehicle. (Intended for sale)

- Sambar Dump Truck 'Kaminari' (PSE)
This is a full-fledged, Sambar-based dump truck that totally shatters the existing image of mini vehicles. The protective lumbar stay that shields the cabin from the load is a standard fixture, just as on full-sized dump trucks. Also it has been significantly strengthened by 2.3 mm thick panels for the cargo area. And totally original double-structured gates for all three sides also enhance the rigidity. Superior durability has been achieved together with a strong chassis frame structure. Furthermore, quite and powerful electric oil pressure cylinders are used for the dump lifting pistons.
