Powertrain on this Sambar Van

This Sambar Van carries the EN07: a 660cc engine. The EN07 is a genuine four-cylinder in a kei-sized package. Subaru kept building it long after almost everyone else had settled on three cylinders, and it is the single biggest reason Sambars have their own following. The 660cc engine drives through an automatic gearbox.

2000 Subaru Sambar Van: the background

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 Silver. Every Subaru-built Sambar is a full cab-over, which is precisely how Subaru got a longer cargo bed than its rivals onto the same overall length. Japan's Akabou courier cooperative ran Sambars almost exclusively for three decades, on a factory type-approved version with its own valves, pistons, rods and crankshaft built to cover 200,000 kilometres of courier work — a fair indication of what the platform tolerates.
