Why the Sambar is different

The TT2 designation places this 2001 Sambar in the sixth-generation Sambar, built between 1999 and 2012. Sambars turn up in more colours than most kei trucks because Subaru sold plenty to private buyers as well as to trades; this one is White. Putting the engine under the bed was a deliberate load-carrying decision: on a kei truck the difference between empty and laden is enormous, and the engine acts as ballast over the driven axle when the bed is empty.

Sambar: engine and drivetrain

The engine is recorded as the EN07. Subaru was the last maker to keep a four-cylinder in the kei class, and the EN07 is that engine — four small cylinders instead of three larger ones, which is why a Sambar is so much less busy than a three-cylinder rival. Behind the White bodywork sits a manual gearbox.

Ownership and import of this Sambar

A 2001 Sambar is old enough to be simple and new enough to be usable, which is most of why this generation gets exported rather than scrapped. We describe what is recorded and nothing more. If a figure is not on this page, it is because we do not have it on file. The asking price is $7,245.
