New- changes year by year. For complete
specs please visit the specific page for that year.
2006 production stopped April 2006.
2006 The 2006 Baja is expected at dealers in August. A new remote keyless entry system and security system is now standard, very few other changes. Only 3 colors for 06. Prices, options, colors added to this page July 2005.
2005 all models get power outlet in center console, rear seatback net pocket (attached to the back of the fold-down rear seat). Turbo with Leather comes standard with new 2 piece hard tonneau bed cover which will be available starting 11/04. New optional Homelink available on the auto dimming mirror/compass available 11/04. New colors.
2004: new 2.5L Turbo model replaces the Baja, so you can have the Baja Sport or Baja Turbo. There are 2 of the new turbo models: a manual or automatic transmission with cloth interior, or and automatic SportShift transmission with leather, heated seats, power seat etc. The Baja Sport remains much the same with a few changes incl. medium gray interior trim, new exterior colors etc.
All New model for 2003:
Available
in late August 2002, the all new 2003 Subaru Baja is designed to combine
the practicality of a truck and comfort of a 4 door car with high-riding
"rugged road" all-wheel-drive capability.
Many folks compare it to
other similar but now gone car-truck combinations like the Subaru Brat,
Ford Ranchero, Chevy El Camino etc. The front of a car and the back of
a truck...
The concept vehicle shown
in 2000 was called the ST-X ("Subaru truck xperimental crossover") and
had a SPT supercharged 230hp 6 cylinder engine, 8.5" ground clearance,
dual range high/low 4x4 system, a canvas manually retractable sunroof,
and the ability to carry a 4x8 sheet of plywood. The bed opened into the
passenger area like the Chev Avalanche. Many of these features did
not make it into production.
The Baja production vehicle
is based on the Legacy platform with the 165hp 4 cylinder 2.5L engine,
and the running gear, brakes, interior, dashboard and high-riding suspension
of the Legacy Outback, and of course the rear bed of a pick-up truck.
The rear seats and rear
wall fold flat creating almost 7.5 feet of cargo bed length.
The Baja has 4 passenger
seating with the most of the standard power, comfort and safety features
found the 2003 Outback.
