Subaru Leone 4X4

The flat-four engine of the Subaru provided drive to the front wheels only, until four-wheel-drive was required. The extra drive was simply engaged by a lever, at any speed up to 80 km/h, engagement being indicated by a warning light. The light was a necessary reminder as the four-wheel option was intended for use only on soft ground; the Subaru did not have the luxury of a central differential which would compensate for the slight variation in speed between front and rear wheels when all four were driven. With just its front wheels driven, the Subaru 4 x 4 provided what adequate performance, and while its all-wheel drive option did not endow Land Rover capabilities, it was a useful addition which gave good cross-country performance. The Leone Wagons were available with a 4-speed manual transmission, 5-speed manual transmission or a 3-speed automatic transmission beginning in 1975.
