If the car won't be sold in Europe, then it's even more amazing Subaru and Toyota spent the money to develop the car just for the U.S. (and presumably Japanese) market. They really aren't going to be raking in much profit on it. It's hard to see the 'business case' for the car.

As I've said before, this car is a gift to enthusiasts. Other car companies are killing off their lower volume cars to focus on the big selling models. Ford canned ALL of their 'cars' in the U.S. and now sells only trucks (and equivalent SUV/Crossover things). For Toyota and Subaru to bother with spending the money to develop a next-generation car at all deserves applause and thanks.

With all the depressing things going on in the US lately, between bitter politics and a raging pandemic, it's a nice little distraction to look forward to the unveiling of the next generation car later this month.
