"Subaru" means union in Japanese, and "Subaru" is the Japanese pronunciation of the name of the Pleiades cluster (also known as "Six Stars") in the constellation Bull. Looking up at the sky, you can see six stars in the cluster. Because Fuji Heavy Industries was formed by the merger of six companies, it adopted the pattern of "six stars" as a trademark, symbolizing the close unity between the companies and the spirit of * * * forging ahead together.
