New Subaru’s Impreza shares part of its name with the new Impreza WRX.

Impreza is offered with four- and five-door body styles. The new shapes are a sharp step away from the previous version’s upright shapes. Both have ditched the bulbous, winged nose that had been applied to the Subaru range, and both cars get framed doors-long a holdout by Subaru-for better noise reduction and a higher-quality feel.

Subaru considers, that the four-door is a distinct body style for North America. Its 4.5 inches longer than the last Impreza sedan and 6.5 inches longer than the new five-door version.

Both versions ride on a new chassis with a wheelbase 3.7 inches longer than before, but more rigid and lighter in weight than the last edition.

The Impreza 2.5i has a 170-horsepower, 2.5-liter flat four with 170 pound-feet of torque. A five-speed manual is standard, while a four-speed automatic is available.

New safety gear includes curtain airbags and anti-lock brakes. Stability control is available.

Subaru also has positioned the flat-four engine lower in the chassis for better handling, which it indicates is a better compromise of sport and comfort than the prior car.

The interior has more shoulder and hip room, an input for MP3 players, and video jacks for video-game players to operate through the optional navigation system.
