Subaru Baja Revival: Outback-Based Compact Pickup or Trailseeker EV Proposed

An automotive writer urged Subaru to revive the Baja as a compact pickup or Trailseeker-based EV to capitalize on rising interest in midsize and compact trucks.

The original Baja was produced from 2002 to 2006 and was essentially an Outback with a bed, a midgate, and available turbocharged engine and manual transmission. It offered unusual cargo flexibility and distinctive styling but did not achieve strong sales.

The article suggests a new Subaru Baja could be derived from the latest Outback or spun off the Trailseeker EV, possibly with a Wilderness off-road variant to appeal to buyers, and invites reader suggestions.
