As one can see from the table above, the Evoltis 7-seater midsize crossover, the XV subcompact crossover, and the BRZ sports car were spared from the price update.
An official statement regarding the price changes is yet to be released by Subaru PH. A report from Carguide.ph did say, however, that the prices for the models in question were adjusted back in February 2023.
As mentioned in our previous report regarding Peugeot PH’s price increase for its models, there are many factors that might cause this. This includes the economic state of a country, import taxes, the cost of producing cars and car parts, etc.
All WRX and WRX wagon trims saw a price bump as well
Remember that price increases can likewise be attributed to new features added to currently available car models. In connection to the Subaru PH price increase, the same report from Carguide also mentioned that the Forester was given an idle start/stop system for better fuel efficiency.
This new feature was also provided for the XV, but as indicated above, no price changes were made to its two locally available variants. Interestingly, the WRX and the WRX Wagon which did see a price increase did not come with apparent spec updates.
