Under the skin of a 2000 Sambar Truck

The engine is recorded as the EN07 — 660cc. 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. The 2000 Sambar Truck came with an automatic gearbox, and that is what this one has.

About the 2000 Subaru Sambar

Subaru built the Sambar in-house from 1961 until the last one left the line on 29 February 2012, after which the badge moved onto a rebadged Daihatsu. A 2000 vehicle comes from the in-house era. Putting the engine behind the rear axle loads the driven wheels, and that is a large part of why Sambars have the traction reputation they do. On four-wheel-drive Sambars the drive runs forward from the rear-mounted engine, the exact reverse of the usual kei arrangement.

Practicalities of this Sambar Truck

2 up front and 350kg behind is the entire specification, and there is very little on it to go wrong. A 2000 build date puts this one well past the 25-year federal import threshold.
