Em Junho de 1971 foi apresentado o novo modelo da Subaru chamado Leone na versão Coupé. Esta versão substituía o modelo FF-1. Curiosamente, a versão coupé foi a primeira carroçaria a ser lançada, juntando-se as carroçarias Wagon e Sedan de 2 e 4 portas em Setembro de 1972.

As principais características que distinguiam o Leone da restante oferta da época eram a tracção dianteira, os motores boxer e as versões 4WD. Outra curiosidade do Leone era a de existirem modelos com travões de tambor nas quatro rodas, opção completamente ultrapassada para a época, mas existirem também versões com travões de disco nas quatro rodas, opção inovadora no segmento em termos de modelos japoneses.

Carroçarias:
Coupé
Coupé Hardtop
Sedan de 2 portas
Sedan de 4 portas
Station Wagon de 5 portas
Pickup - conhecida como Subaru Brat


Legenda: Subaru Leone Coupé Hardtop

Motores:
1200  
1400 - EA-63 de 1361cc - motor comercializado em Portugal.  1361cc
1600

Em 1977 o Leone foi alvo de um facelift, mantendo-se a mesma mecânica. Entre 1979 e 1981 a 1ª geração do Leone foi vendida paralelamente à segunda geração.
Em Portugal são conhecidos modelos Coupé, Sedan de 4 portas e Station Wagon. Tanto de tracção dianteira como tracção integral. As versões mais comuns são os DL e GSR.

The Subaru Leone made its entrance in June 1971, and the Subaru Leone 4WD Station Wagon followed in September 1972. Until then, four-wheel drives (4WD) was limited to off-road vehicles. Subaru broke that pattern by introducing the mass-produced 4WD variation in an ordinary passenger vehicle series. When the vehicle was first put on the market, demand came mainly as a result of the special applications the car could be used for, such as commercial use in snowy and mountainous areas. However, the car was highly praised in both the domestic and overseas markets for its originality. The vehicle had steadily broadened its customer base thanks to a surge in popularity of outdoor sports like skiing and fishing. The car's popularity snowballed to the point where it became the world's top-selling 4WD passenger car and the origin of the Subaru AWD.
