Subaru will be unveiling it’s next generation Subaru Impreza in a few month’s time at the 2007 New York International Auto Show – 4th April 2007. what we’ll see is the conventional Impreza in 5-door hatchback form, as the mad turbocharged WRX and WRX STI variants are not expected to be ready for unveiling until 2008. The 5-door hatch design is expected to be similiar to the Subaru B5-TPH Concept shown above.
The bread and butter Subaru Impreza is rumored to be powered by normally aspirated 4-cylinder boxers in 1.5 litre and 2.0 litre displacements. The WRX will likely come with an evolution of the potent 2.5 litre turbocharged boxer engine in the current performance Imprezas.
Along with the new Impreza WRX, 2008 will also bring us turbodiesel boxer versions of the Subaru Legacy and the Subaru Outback (Legacy Stationwagon), a 4-cylinder turbodiesel boxer engine has been in development for quite some time now. Subaru announced that the diesel engine was almost complete back in October 2006. It is expected to make about 170hp and 340Nm of torque from a 2.0 litre displacement.

somehow this impreza looks like a four wheeler… more like a nissan murano to me.. such radical change from the current impreza….
and the front.. looks as if the exhaust are placed on both sides in the front..
not use to the new design.. hmmm.. looks quite strange.. maybe some time later it'll look better…
but looking at the old posts… the rear really looks super ugly… it's one of the worst design I've ever saw… sad…. really sad… just hope the real butt of it wont be something like that…
i wonder how will the wrc version of impreza look like… they say will have a new car in the mexican rallye… hope will be better and nicer lor… really have high expectation on imprezas…

evo is more spanking, well let just wait.
Basically a Subaru should look "garang" as this is how Subaru is born.
looks like murano to me,and where is the air intake for the turbo?
can wait to see their new diesel boxer ver….
It's outlook looks ok for wifey's car …. but definetly not for racing style… :)
Still Mitsu is the best…
Sad, subaru has lost it's identity… i tak suka langsung this one.. why they can't just ignore the flying vagina mockery, the current subaru WRX style look just fine…
I like the 2.5turbodiesel will be used for next WRX, i dislike much the looks of next Impreza.
Time for diesel is going to make boost!
