This is a 1998 Subaru Sambar Truck in Polar White. As one of the later models of the KS4 generation, it benefits from Subaru’s tried-and-true EN07 660cc four-cylinder engine — a smooth, rev-happy motor that stands out from the typical three-cylinder kei trucks. Paired with a 5-speed manual transmission and selectable 4WD, it’s a capable little workhorse on pavement, dirt, or snow.
The late-90s Sambars are known for their car-like ride quality, even being called the “Porsches of the farm roads” in Japan. This is thanks to Subaru’s rear-engine layout, giving them better balance, quieter operation, and more stability compared to front-engine competitors. This one retains that classic Sambar feel: simple, mechanical, and incredibly durable. With just 72,000 kilometers, it’s in the sweet spot where these trucks really shine: reliable, economical, and still easy to maintain.
Being a KS4, it includes features like push-button 4WD, fold-down bedsides, and Subaru’s well-designed cabin layout with great visibility and surprisingly roomy seating. It’s a perfect choice for ranch work, camping, property use, or as a fun daily runabout that’s easy on fuel and even easier to park. If you want a kei truck with Subaru character, a smooth four-cylinder engine, and real utility, this Sambar checks all the boxes.
