STORY

The Subaru 360 was Fuji Heavy Industries' first mass-produced car, built from 1958 to 1971 as a kei-class two-door with a rear-mounted, air-cooled two-stroke twin engine. Nicknamed the 'ladybug' in Japan, its light monocoque body made it very popular and it became one of the typical early Japanese people's cars. Malcolm Bricklin famously imported it to the United States in the late 1960s.
