Subaru introduced the Stella in its lineup as a replacement for the R2 model, and it was more of a re-badged version of the Daihatsu Move.
There were many joint projects between Toyota and Subaru, and the Stella was one good example. It was based on the Daihatsu Move, but it featured more differences than the badges on the grille and steering wheel.
While the R2 tried to be a different kei-car and was available even in a shorter version, the Stella returned to the traditional shapes required by that segment. Its squared look with a steep front area and high greenhouse helped the drivers finding parking spots. Depending on the trim level, the car featured single or double headlamps design for the headlights. At the top trim level, named Custom, the Stella featured a taller grille above the bumper and into the apron. It also sported turn signals in the door-mirror casings. In the back, the slim taillights flanked the liftgate. As a last touch of personality, for the Custom version, the carmaker installed a roof spoiler. A specific version of the Stella took some inspiration from the Impreza STI, with big fog lights and an air scoop on the hood.
Inside, the Stella offered a four-seat interior with an interesting option on installing a child seat on the back and a folding passenger seat at the front. Subaru carried over the very wide opening angle system for the rear doors for easier ingress and egress to the car.
Under the hood, the Stella featured a 0.66-liter engine to fit into the kei-car category, with or without a supercharger. The carmaker paired it with a CVT transmission. Both Subaru and Daihatsu offered the Stella/Move with an all-wheel-drive system as well.
