List of Subaru engines

Subaru uses a four or five digit code to identify all of their engines.

* The first letter is always E standing for engine.
* The next letter is the engine's family.
* The next two numbers identify the engine's displacement (or revision before 1989)
* The fifth character is an identifer to mark revisions, (ex: turbo, DOHC, Fuel Injection, etc)

Two Cylinder

All of Subaru's two cylinder engines are inline. They make Two-stroke cycle and Four-stroke cycle

EK

* EK31: 356cc 25hp@4500 Air Cooled Two-stroke cycle engine found in the Subaru 360 and Subaru Sambar.

Three Cylinder

* EA82T: 1791cc SOHC, 111hp@5200 used in the Subaru Leone and Subaru XT

Subaru EJ engine

The EJ engine was introduced in the 1989 Subaru Legacy to replace the EA engines (although they were used in the Subaru Leone until 1994. These engines have four valved per cylinder and can be either SOHC or DOHC, the fifth digit is the only way to tell without seeing the engine.
* EJ15: 1483.4cc SOHC, 1990-1993 JDM Subaru Impreza
* EJ16: 90hp@5600 used in the 1993-2006 Subaru Impreza
* EJ18: 1820cc SOHC 110hp@5600 rpm used in the 1990-1996 Subaru Impreza and Euro and JDM Subaru Legacy
* EJ20: 1994.3cc, 220-280hp used on Most Turbo Models, (2002-2005 WRX in the United States)
* EJ22: 2212cc, 135-280hp used in the 1989-2001 Subaru Impreza and Subaru Legacy
* EJ25: 2457cc, 165-320hp found in Most Models 1995-Present

Subaru EN engine

The EN80 engine was used in the Fiori in Australia and some other markets. It was an inline 4-cylinder of 758cc, naturally aspirated with a single carburetor developing 31kW @ 6000rpm.

Boxer Diesel

Subaru unveiled the world's first boxer diesel engine at the Geneva autoshow in 2007. This 2.0L DOHC engine has 163HP and 251b-ft and is scheduled to be released in Europe in 2008. It is scheduled to be released in North America in 2010. [ Boxer Diesel ]

ix Cylinder

All of Subaru's six cylinder engines are a Flat-6 Four-stroke cycle design, Liquid Cooled.

ER

Subaru introduced its first six cylinder engine in its Subaru XT sports car. This SOHC engine was based on their current EA82, with two cylinders added to the back.
* ER27: 2672cc SOHC, 145hp@5200 found in the 1987-1991 Subaru XT

EG

The EG engine was a direct replacement for the ER found in the Subaru XT sports car. Replacing it was the Subaru Alcyone SVX so Subaru needed a new engine. As with the ER27, Subaru took the EJ22 and stretched it two cylinders to make the new EG33. However, this four valve per cylinder engine was DOHC and used many valvetrain parts from the not yet released EJ25D.
* EG33: 3318cc DOHC, 230hp@5400 used in the 1992-1997 Subaru Alcyone SVX

EZ

Instead of stretching their current EJ20 as most might suspect, in 2000 Subaru did this family from the ground up. It is a totally new DOHC design using dual timing chains and coil-on-plug ignition. Nothing from these engines are interchangeable with any other Subaru engine as in the past. The EZ36 was introduced in 2008 to help the Tribeca's sluggish performance. It is a bored and stroked version of the EZ30.
* EZ30: 2999.6cc DOHC, 212-250hp found in 2000+ Subaru Outback H6, Legacy 3.0R, and Subaru Tribeca
* EZ36: 3564.3cc DOHC, 256@6000rpm 247lb-ft@4400rpm found in the 2008 Subaru Tribeca
