Because of regulation changes, only three months later the engine was again upgraded with a 490 cc displacement EK22 engine for the Sambar 5, sold as the Subaru 500 in export markets, and in May 1977 replaced by a full 550 cc EK23 model, the K77 and K87. The Sambar 550 was known in export as the Subaru 600. Four wheel drive became optional in 1980. The Sambar has used a rear engine, rear wheel drive layout with body on frame rather than unibody construction.
