Risks and opportunities
Trend
A trend score of – is awarded to Subaru. If the company were reassessed in the near term, its score would most likely worsen. Subaru is due to continue with 100 percent internal combustion engine vehicle sales in the short term, with its low-carbon alternative – a plug-in hybrid vehicle – not entering the market until 2021. As a result, Subaru’s fleet emissions from internal combustion engine vehicles will increase. A substantial reduction is required during the next five years to stay within the emissions budget set in the low-carbon pathway. Subaru has also not published a low-carbon transition plan or acknowledged climate change as a risk to its business strategy. Furthermore, the company has not set long-term emissions reductions targets outside of manufacturing, indicating that it is not yet aligned with the low-carbon pathway.
