DerFahrer Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 Peace? I understood it to mean "to come together". The 6 companies came together to form FHI, hence the name... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warp3 Posted May 30, 2004 Share Posted May 30, 2004 The 6-stars represent the 6 companies that make up Fuji Heavy Industries (Subaru's parent company) and is designed after the Pleiades constellation (i.e. the 7 sisters, which yes, does have 7 stars in reality, not just 6...lol). From what I have read in the past, Subaru is the japanese name for the Pleiades constellation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hocrest Posted May 31, 2004 Share Posted May 31, 2004 And the brightest star of the constellation is Alcyone, which is the name Subaru used for XT's and SVX's in other countries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
