2024 TASKL: Subaru BRZ and WRX debut with Songket and Bunga Raya motifs
TC Subaru Sdn Bhd, the exclusive distributor of Subaru vehicles in Malaysia, is set to enliven the Tokyo Auto Salon Kuala Lumpur 2024 by showcasing two vehicle models adorned with special liveries inspired by local design elements.
The unique liveries applied to the Subaru BRZ and WRX were created by Motorsport Playground, drawing inspiration from a blend of Japanese engineering culture and Malaysian heritage elements, such as Songket patterns and Bunga Raya motifs that replace traditional Sakura flowers.
It is noteworthy that Subaru previously participated in a time attack challenge at the PETRONAS Sepang International Circuit using standard factory-spec Subaru BRZ and WRX vehicles.
Leveraging the expertise of TD Racing, both cars underwent necessary preparations, including basic alignments and oil checks, before attempting the time attack.
Driven by professional racer Freddie Ang, the manual transmission Subaru BRZ recorded a time of 02:42.211, while the Subaru WRX with CVT completed the lap in approximately 02:43.472.
TC Subaru is also collaborating with local clothing brand Pestle & Mortar Clothing (PMC) to offer an exclusive streetwear collection available for purchase at TASKL 2024, taking place from November 8 to 10 at the Malaysian International Trade and Exhibition
Centre (MITEC).
