May be surprising that the parent company of Subaru and Fuji Heavy Industries can trace its roots back to the dark called 'Aircraft Research Laboratory "founded by Chikuhei Nakijima in 1917. Previous to this, while enrolled at the Japanese Naval Academy and at age 19, became fascinated by the concept of human Nakijima flight and romance associated with the light in the sky of the hearing Wright brother's first successful engine flying. This quickly led to Nakijima working on aircraft production for the Japanese Navy. Finally, less than satisfied with the aircraft building, became Nakijima more and more interested in developing aspects of the aircraft, which culminated in leaving the Naval Academy to find the above Aircraft Research Laboratory.
Very quickly this new company was renamed Nakijima Aircraft Co Ltd, is fast becoming one of the leading Japanese aircraft design and manufacturing company in the years leading to and including the period during the second World War II. After the defeat of Japan in 1945, and the total collapse of the domestic aviation industry, Nakijima aircraft was renamed Fuji Sangyo Co Ltd, and began the task of adapting the design and production techniques learned from aircraft production to the production of motor scooters and bus bodies.
Reacting to the demand for cheap personal transport, in June 1946 Fuji Sangyo, after studying for six months Powell streamliner scooter (as used by U.S. personnel time) to handle its own interpretation of the current design. Called Fuji Rabbit, it proved to be instant success with local people who appreciated the step-through design, low center of gravity and satisfactory performance. The drive was about 1.5kW 135cc air-cooled engine and the use of surplus military tail-wheels of military aircraft! It is also interesting the rabbit is on the market for six months before the first Vespa scooter.
Changes in prevailing corporate law company in 1950, Fuji Sangyo forced to separate into twelve separate companies. In 1953 Fuji Heavy Industries (FHI), was the production aircraft maintenance and sale of the company by investing in a combination of the five original companies formed from the break-up Fuji Sangyo. Two years Later, the five investors teamed up with the newly formed FHI, FHI beginning of the modern era of business as we know it today.
At the beginning of 1954 FHI first prototype car was produced, creatively known as P-1. Then president FHI Kenji Kita, made it a priority to develop special name for the emerging car sharing to FHI, the implementation of inter-company survey.
Finally satisfied with the proposals, Kita chose instead to use the name of his dear heart, and that the Japanese people. For both Chinese and Japanese, groups of six visible stars known as Pleiades in the west, is known under the name Subaru.
For the Japanese, literally, Subaru means "to gather or manage "and sometimes as meaning" unity. "Interestingly, FHI was created from the merger of six different companies, demonstrate what evocative name Subaru is Japanese.
P-1 became the Subaru 1500, which ultimately failed to sales success FHI for various reasons, but the Subaru in 1958 struck the right mini-Formula One car for the masses, the Subaru 360th 360 was a small four-seat car and went to sell completed eleven years.
The rest is as they say, history!
