Durability and a low impact on the environment
have long made Subaru vehicles the choice of
drivers who want to enjoy the beauty of the
natural world. By eliminating pollutants during
the production process and creating efficient,
low-emission vehicles, Subaru works diligently
to protect that beauty and the earth we all share.
Protecting Wildlife
In 2003, SIA became the fi rst U.S. automotive assembly
plant to be designated a wildlife habitat. Subaru
shares the site with numerous natural residents including
deer, blue herons and beavers.
Zero Landfill
In 2004, Subaru of Indiana Automotive (SIA) became
the first manufacturing facility in the U.S. to reach
zero landfill status—nothing from its manufacturing
efforts ever goes into a landfill.

Low Emissions
The Legacy is one of the few vehicles to achieve Partial
Zero Emission Vehicle (PZEV)
2
status. It achieves this
recognition for cleanliness and efficiency without the
negative environmental impact required to manufacture
some high-effi ciency systems, and without compromising
performance and versatility.
