"We have a contract to supply 63 cars to the Gendarmerie Nationale for patrols
on the roads," Subaru spokesman Gilles Varmoux said on Thursday. "There was a
tender for four-door, four-wheel drive cars that could go faster than 240 km
per hour (149 miles per hour) and had a reasonable price," he added.
The Subaru Impreza WRX cars will replace Peugeot's 306 S16 and the Renault
Megane Coupe.
The police forces are among the most faithful clients of the local car makers,
but this time the French offerings were just too slow.
