spb Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 It’s almost here — the long-lasting durability and safety of Subaru meets a bold new energy in a compact sedan and a versatile 5-door. The all-new Subaru Impreza has been completely redesigned inside and out, from upgraded in-car technology and a more spacious interior to its sleek new body design. And featuring standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, it’s everything you love about a Subaru in a striking new package. The 2017 Subaru Impreza. More than a car, it’s a Subaru. Be among the first to see it at the 2016 New York International Auto Show. link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spb Posted March 11, 2016 Author Share Posted March 11, 2016 IMHO mazda 3's design has been better than Impreza's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgoodhue Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 The new Impreza is suppose to have a new engine. Most likely it will be a FB engine with DI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SubieN8 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 I'll seriously consider this car as well as the WRX next year. I love my car, but we don't have a family and it's just going to get bigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orndog Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Looks as much like a Ford as the new Legacies IMO. Ah well, it's not a bad look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LatentWagen Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Meh, not bad. Does have a lot of Mazda design vibe going on.

Perscitus Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Moarh photos (meh): Too much Mazda 3 / Corolla here, especially the rear. Still, I guess its a step up from the current-gen Impreza. Interior seems OK, will likely end up transplanting to the next XV and potentially (at least in part) the WRX/STI/Levorg. http://www.carscoops.com/2016/03/heres-2017-subaru-impreza-sedan.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All we're getting from here on end is low pressure turbo direct injected downsized motors, CVT hybrids. In some rare instances, Subaru will throw in a 2.0DIT, maybe a 3.0DIT. Or do this and not let us have anything close: http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/122452 http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showpost.php?p=44275483&postcount=14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehsnils Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 The downsizing of engines will make a market for custom-built engines by tuners. It's not going to be cheap, but for those that get tired of anemic cars it's definitely an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgoodhue Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 The press release says it has a 152 hp Direct Injection FB20 engine. I would have expect that direct injection would have add more than 4 hp. http://media.subaru.com/pressrelease/929/1/subaru-introduces-all-new-u.s-built-2017-impreza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nemo Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 A Subaru executive – whose name I forget and you wouldn’t care about anyways – proclaimed in the Impreza press conference today that the care is “reassuringly safe.” And after just looking at the 2017 Subaru Impreza, that is the most truthful thing I’ve heard all day. Look, we all know that there hasn’t been an interesting-looking Subaru Impreza since 2007. Good driving cars, sure. The WRX and STI versions are a blast, in fact. But they look boring as all hell. There was the fainest glimmer of hope for the new Imprezas, based on the concept that we saw. But these are different. These look like base-model Toyota Corollas with all-wheel-drive. These look like lumps of car. Subaru is aiming to sell over a million cars this year. They’ll probably do it, as long as they’ve got cars with mass-produced aesthetics such as this one. http://jalopnik.com/subaru-says-the-new-impreza-is-reassuringly-safe-and-oh-1766678754 If you don't vote Trump, out, you're a bigot who hates america.
