SUBARU INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTS Subaru Industrial Power Products' launched a rebranding campaign – "Out with the old, in with the blue" – at World of Concrete, bringing a sleek new design to the company's lineup, one that coordinates with Subaru's automotive line. The entire SGX Series – the 3,500-, 5,000- and 7,500-watt models – have undergone an overhaul. Upgrades include run-fl at tires, digital readouts and a muffl er double the size of the previous series. All models feature Subaru's overhead cam engine that promotes a constant fl ow of oil for less friction and less heat. The upgraded models were redesigned with a focus on total cost of ownership, concentrating on customers' pain points. The company included a new recoil for this line, made out of a break- resistant composite material. Subaru also redesigned the engine to locate the low oil sensor at the front, ensuring the engine doesn't have to be torn apart to access it. Instead, a few minutes and a 12-millimeter wrench will enable the contractor to get to the sensor. Subaru also took a look at air fi lter cost, choosing to partner with Home Depot to make their fi lters readily available without having to order them from a dealer, and lowering the lifetime cost to just $26.
