Subaru’s new car has an unusual – and inappropriate – name
Subaru has unveiled its new Forester model at the 2020 Singapore Motor Show, but the internet isn’t just picking up on the car’s striking blue and red colourway.
The full name of Subaru’s new model is the Forester Ultimate Customised Kit Special edition (little e), and if you haven’t cottoned on yet, look at the first letter of each word.

If you can believe it, according to Top Gear Philippines, it’s not just the striking (and not-safe-for-work) name, that makes the F-UCKS edition a head turner..
The publication reported the vehicle has a bright blue interior with red stitching and an impressive sound system, as well as blacked-out headlamps and taillamps.
The seats are suede, as are the dashboard and side panel, and the blue theme even extends to the footwell lighting.
Focal amplifiers in the boot of the car have been enclosed in glass casing, and rear passengers even get LCD monitors.
Interestingly, a spokesperson for Subaru of America told Business Insider that the company had no information about the new model or where the acronym cam from, because the car came from an independent distributor.
