In-game description[]
This description is taken from the original Gran Turismo:
The Alcyone[1] SVX appeared as Subaru's flagship in 1991. Subaru's fastidiousness is evident in the design of the glass-to-glass-round-canopy. It is fitted with a water-cooled horizontally opposed 6-cylinder engine. It featured Subaru's first variable torque distribution electronically controlled 4-wheel drive (VTD-4WD). The 3.3 litre flat six DOHC is normally aspirated and generates 240 PS / 6000 rpm and 31.5 kgm / 4800 rpm. The transmission is electronically controlled lockup 4-speed automatic. Suspension is provided by struts on both front and rear wheels. Brakes are ventilated discs on both sets of wheels. It drives just like a GT coupe, providing a comfortable ride and easy handling. It is not very good at aggressive driving because of its heavy weight, but can display its ability in high-speed cruising. Great skill will be needed to squeeze the best speed out of it.
