All the most interesting about "Subaru Impreza": technical characteristics, design, interior and equipment

One of the most impressive models of Subaru can rightly be considered "Subaru Impreza." The technical characteristics of this machine are worthy of attention, and I would like to tell you about them in detail. But first, about the history of this amazing model.

Creating a car

"Subaru Impreza", the technical characteristics of which will be discussed below, first appeared in 1992. Already then the release of this machine began. And in 1994 they began to produce exclusive Impreza coupe. In general, initially the developers wanted to make such a car that would be worthy of participation in the world rally championship, known as the WRC. Many even harbored the hope of winning this car in the race. Well, due to diligence and technology it was possible to create a powerful, effective and fast "Subaru Impreza". Technical characteristics were amazing: this model became a trump card of the company. Let the rally fail to achieve the victories, but the car took its niche in the car market. Moreover, it was established there and won the love and recognition of numerous buyers.

Appearance

One of the striking features of the Subaru Impreza car, the technical characteristics of which will be discussed later in more detail, is its appearance. The design has turned out to be stylish, and it's hard not to recognize. And the interior was very interesting. Particularly pleasing is the quality of the assembly and the perfect fit of materials. Let the interior and did not turn out to be spacious, but here is the level of ergonomics of the driver's seat - at altitude. Many critics dare to call it ideal. Let this machine and was positioned as a family car, but some forget that it is with a sporting bias. Even the producers themselves talked about this. The car was beautiful, practical, frisky and comfortable. And for all its adequate value the car gave the driver a real pleasure from the driving process.

Versions of the 2000s

Time passed, technologies were improved, and production did not stand still. There were new "Subaru Impreza". Technical characteristics of them became better, more powerful. Take, for example, the 2007 version. This is the third generation, by the way. Initially there was only a car "Subaru Impreza hatchback". The technical characteristics of the car were impressive - a 1.5-liter 107-horsepower engine or a 2-liter SOHC generating 150 horsepower. These collections were the most popular and popular. The first of these versions was available in combination with a 5-band manual gearbox or with a 4-speed "automatic". The latter was completed only 4-speed automatic transmission.

But this is not all that "Subaru Impreza 2008" can boast of. Specifications of this car is much wider. The car was offered in a single-drive version - not only in the usual all-wheel drive. And then, in 2008, in the lineup it was decided to add a version in the sedan's body. After all, such models began to acquire a truly shocking popularity.

"Subaru Impreza 2008 hatchback" specifications were the same. Sedan differed from its predecessor only in appearance. Updated radiator grille, chrome trimmed body elements, increased comfort - these are its features. No wonder that even the manufacturer himself noted that it was decided to add the sedan to the line, based on marketing considerations.

"Charged" version of "Subaru Impreza 2008"

The technical characteristics of this machine differed from those of its predecessors. The increased volume of the trunk, the symmetrical drive and, most importantly, the turbocharged power unit, the volume of which was 2.5 liters. Generated this unit power in 230 "horses"! The developers really did a lot of work in order to refine the motor. And it was expressed not only in power, but also in the minimized amount of harmful emissions. The atmospheric power unit, featuring an upper distribution camshaft, was also equipped with a new intake system and catalytic converter. And I also want to say that the top model (also known as WRX) has acquired a fundamentally new 6-band manual transmission.

Latest versions

And finally, a few words about the models of 2010, which came out after the "Subaru Impreza 2008 hatchback." The technical characteristics of these models have become even better. And it was during this period that the WRX STI version was released. With an even stronger engine and unique hinged aerodynamic elements.

Also, the developers significantly improved the suspension and installed on the car 18-inch alloy wheels. Fans of listening to loud music with "juicy" basses will like the CD-changer and powerful speakers. There is also a navigation system, an onboard computer, front and side airbags, inflatable curtains, VDC (dynamic stabilization), Bluetooth system and much more.

And finally, we describe the engine: a 300-hp, 2.5-liter, controlled by a 6-band "mechanics" - this is the main feature and key advantage due to which this car has acquired such popularity.
