Parent company of Subaru Canada changes name to Subaru Corporation.

Subaru Canada has announced that its parent company, Fuji Heavy Industries, has changed its company name to Subaru Corporation, effective April 1, 2017.

The origins of Fuji Heavy Industries date back to the founding of an aircraft research laboratory in 1917. A hundred years later, Subaru hopes to accelerate its efforts to achieve greater growth and enhance Subaru as a global brand in the automotive and aerospace industries.

To mark the change, renaming ceremonies will be held at the head office in Ebisu, Tokyo, as well as three other facilities.
