AutoExec Summary
Subaru Australia is working on introducing Wilderness versions of its SUVs, but challenges with lead times and customer orders have delayed their arrival. The current Forester Wilderness won’t be launched, with the next-generation Forester expected in 2025. The Outback Wilderness will come with a mid-life update, and the Crosstrek Wilderness is on Subaru’s wish list. All Wilderness models are currently built in the US, so production in Japan may be needed for Australian sales. Subaru’s local division has a history of campaigning for specific models to be produced in right-hand drive.

Brands mentioned: Subaru, Yokohama Geolandar
