Subaru Corp

Subaru discloses only limited information on how it governs climate-related lobbying and policy engagement. It states that it has "a public commitment or position statement to conduct your engagement activities in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement" and answers this question with "Yes", signalling an intention to align external advocacy with climate goals, and it notes that "Subaru has expressed its support for this 'Challenge Zero' initiative", which is framed as a Keidanren programme to advance a "decarbonized society as positioned by the Paris Agreement". However, the evidence relates mainly to general environmental management structures - such as the "Environment Committee... chaired by the Executive Officer in charge of the Sustainability Division" that reports up to the Board - and does not explain how these bodies review or sign-off lobbying positions, nor does it describe any systematic monitoring of direct or trade-association lobbying for climate alignment. We found no disclosure that identifies a specific individual or committee responsible for overseeing lobbying alignment, no description of processes for assessing, engaging or exiting industry associations, and no mention of auditing or publishing a lobbying-alignment review. Consequently, while Subaru's stated commitment to align engagement with the Paris Agreement indicates some awareness of the issue, the absence of detailed oversight mechanisms, monitoring procedures, or accountability structures points to a minimal level of lobbying governance transparency.
