Subaru Impreza - Japanese Beauty
 Still, the modernization of the car has lost 1 very important feature of his, appeared on her door frames, and the ratio of heavy solid bottom and almost weightless top was broken. It was open slightly and almost weightless door Subaru Impreza distinguished from all other machines. Denial of such door, a sign of the struggle for security, since now the car does not require special mechanisms governing the direction of glass.

It would seem a trifle, just think - door frames. It turns out that even such a change could lead to irreversible consequences. In the history of car industry were such cases where once shone the model loses its individuality. Apparently, it can touch and Subaru. It is fortunate that the developers retained in the new configuration of the existence of boxer-another and probably the last distinctive feature of this car. There is also a symmetrical four-wheel drive, but its developers are now using many other brands.

Let's look at this situation from the other side. Subaru Impreza car was initially positioned as a sports and famous throughout the world, thanks to his participation and his victories in world rally the 90's, which is why it bears the name WRX (World Rally Championship). Yes, the car drew the attention of professionals and drivers with experience, but few ordinary motorists ready for it now. Love sports cars and ride on them - not one and the same. And people have developed the feeling that this car is not for everyone. Feel about this omission, the developers Subaru decided to correct this situation and have taken into account when developing new models of Impreza. Debut of its place at the recent auto show in Frankfurt and has already become available to dealers in Russia market.

The motto of the third model - to be closer to the ordinary motorists.

And what do we ordinary people offered to developers? Even those motorists who spend most of their time on the road, not on a sports track. And the first thing that has undergone modernization - body type. Previously you could choose from two variations, or sedan or wagon, but now developers to combine 2 in 1 and presented to our court hatchback, so beloved by Europeans. While Americans sedan was still preserved, as well as an exception. So what is different from the hatchback Subaru station wagon. Universal previous versions compared to the hatchback, in principle, no different in size, unless the size of the luggage. New car he had a hundred liters less than before, that basically fits hatchback and it cost him the entire reduction in length of 50 mm. Well, when viewed from the side. And if you look inside the machine, then one can immediately understand why it was done. These measures were aimed at increasing the passenger compartment, particularly in the convenience of rear seat. Accordingly looks and dashboard. It is a pity that in Russia is not yet available model presented in the tests in Europe. It is equipped with an information system with 7-inch touch screen monitor, giving the car really elegant chic, and excellent navigation. By the way, Original Equipment Sport looks quite decent.

As one of the developers of the latest model Subaru Impreza, involved in the promotion of its manageability, the main task of modernization was to make the car at lightning speed to respond to any action by the driver, without impairing the comfort and convenience it.

Yes, the Subaru Impreza is very well established itself as a normal urban roads, and on winding, hilly roads. It seems as if the car senses the driver intends and anticipates his wants, and turns effortlessly. Well, apparently the developers have put the dream of many motorists in reality, good handling car without sacrificing personal comfort.

But is not that simple, if you want done with this machine are the same tricks on overtaking, as with previous versions of the Subaru Impreza, you will be disappointed, because to show a characteristic style of movement Subaru you will not allow the engine.

Both the engine car to change it would seem to increase torque at low revs, but more appropriate Subaru 2-liter engine is suitable only for driving in traffic jams. This is due primarily to concern for the manufacturer of the purity of air. After upgrading the engines fully meet the requirements of "Euro-4", which promotes greater interest in this car buyers.

But for those motorists who simply can not measure a person of such changes in their favorite car, probably will have to exploit the engine is almost at the maximum to at least come close to that characteristic of all previous models Subaru style of movement.
