Why this car matters
The Subaru 360 is a landmark in Japanese automotive history. Launched in 1958, it was Japan’s first mass-produced car and became known as the “ladybug” for its rounded shape. Its compact size and lightweight design made it accessible and practical for post-war families. The livery on this model reflects the original factory paint scheme, staying true to the car’s heritage.
