Err, it was. Not sure about this latest iteration. In the mid-late 90's, the "Justy" in europe was a Swift/Metro with AWD.
Subaru still had the Pleo, it's K-car; I think the Justy may actually be a Subaru at this point, but I haven't kept up on them.....
No, I remember reading somewhere that it is still a rebadged Suzuki (although I couldn't remember if it was a Suzuki or Isuzu).

EDIT: here we go!

Subaru to debut new G3X Justy for Europe

Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd will unveil its new Subaru G3X Justy for the European market at the Frankfurt Show. There will be two versions of the all-wheel drive Justy, powered by either the 1.3-litre or 1.5-litre DOHC engine with a variable valve timing system. There will also be a Front-Wheel Drive model with a 1.3-litre diesel turbo engine. Subaru says that the new G3X Justy features sporty and dynamic looks and offers high-performance driving both on rough roads and highways, with a minimum ground clearance of 170 mm. The new G3X Justy will go on sale in Europe immediately following the Frankfurt Motor Show. The new G3X model will be built by Suzuki at the Hungarian Magyar Suzuki Corporation plant. The 1.3-litre diesel engine for the G3X Justy will be supplied by the Fiat-GM Powertrain joint venture. Subaru says that the G3X Justy represents the latest example of global collaboration among GM Group companies.

Yeah, although it really looks like the new Suzuki Ignis.

The junior rally version of the Ignis is supposed be a hoot, 1600CC little banshee

Yeah, and the Swift might show up as a WRC car next year or the year after.
