My point was more along the lines that, because it is a coupe platform independent of any other it will NOT be called an Impreza. The SVX was also a coupe not shared with any other Subaru platform. Therefore my logic is that, much like the introduction of the SVX, it will get its own name.

As for if they name it 'Alcyone', I don't know how many SVX owners would care. SVX was not a big seller here and maybe they would see it as a respectful tribute?

But in all honesty I doubt it will be named 'Alcyone' either, I just like the name and the history with Subaru. Maybe there's another star in the 'Seven Sisters' constellation that they could name it after?
