No, the Subaru SVX is not a turbocharged vehicle. The SVX debuted with and remained available with only one engine, the EG33 model 3.3-liter boxer horizontally opposed flat-six. This engine was the largest engine produced by Subaru for its passenger cars until the introduction of the 3.6-liter EZ36 engine in the 2008 Subaru Tribeca. The larger EG33 engine was more powerful, so a turbocharger was not installed.
