This is about Subaru Impreze A new, fifth generation, and for the first time the model was presented in the spring of this year at the New York Auto Show. A new Japanese car will arrive in Europe in September and will be shown in all its glory at the Frankfurt Motor Show. It is difficult to say whether the new product will appear on the Russian car market, we all know that the model left us at the beginning of the economic crisis, and the return directly depends on the situation with car sales in our country. It is rather difficult to distinguish the fourth generation Impreza from the fourth-generation Impreza, since no radical transformation of the exterior has taken place. However, the quality characteristics of the body and the "cart" in New Generation Impreza completely different. "Fifth" Impreza based on the modular SGP platform, due to which body rigidity has increased by seventy percent. The size of the car slightly increased, the interior feels more spacious. The wheelbase was increased by two and a half centimeters, now it is 2 m 67 cm.
Americans from their dealers will be able to buy newcomer IMPRESU in sedan and hatchback. Under the hood, that in four, that in pyatidverki there is only one in the line of gasoline two-liter aspirated 152 horsepower. It works in conjunction with a five-speed manual gearbox, or with a variable-speed transmission (Lineartronic) with seven gears that can be switched in manual mode. All-wheel drive car. 
No one has yet reported what the Japanese will install under the hood of the European version of the new generation model. There is information that Americans will receive only a hatchback and a wagon Impreza (Levorg), in the body of a "sedan" novelty will not be delivered to them.
As for our car market, the Japanese are still thinking, and, I must say, they have something to think about. The machine is not cheap. And the solvency of Russians is growing reluctantly, although pro-Kremlin statistics report a rise in wages. The Japanese adhere to the formula: "Money in the morning - chairs in the evening", and therefore until the Russians start to live better, most likely, the new generation Impreza will not appear here. Unlike the Chinese, the descendants of the samurai are careful, before taking a step, they look where to put their foot. 
But with respect to the platform-friendly new Impreza of the new-generation compact crossover Subaru XV, which debuted at the Geneva Motor Show in March, the Japanese decided positively: it will definitely come to Russian car dealers on the wave of world-wide Russian love for parquet off-road vehicles. By the way, the Japanese company that makes Subaru cars in the middle of the spring of this year was officially renamed. Now she is not Fuji HeavyIndustries Ltd., but as it should be - Subaru Corporation.
