Subaru has unveiled its new Impreza Design Concept at this week's LA Auto Show, which previews the carmaker's new"Confidence in Motion" design and brand strategy. The Impreza has been Subaru's global compact car since 1992.
A four-door coupe, the Impreza Concept features a wing motif, part of what Subaru is calling a"fresh expression" of identity for the brand. All-wheel drive is tucked under the broad fenders, and the engine is a 2.0-liter naturally-aspirated Boxer engine paired with a CVT.
The exterior features a hexagonal grille with spread wings in the center and hawk eye-style headlights. The hood, grille, and headlights were designed to project three-dimensional character. The rear gets a garnish that radiates outward from the center, sharp-edged rear lights, and new taillamp.
Inside, designers integrated the instrument panel with the door trim. Dark-blue piping and double stitching accent the four leather seats. A screen in the center dash combines navigation, vehicle information and audio. The steering wheel gets redundant controls.Press Release
