Subaru Puts Impreza Wrx on a Strict Diet

The next-gen Impreza WRX photos have been released earlier than the embargo deadline by Road & Track. The official debut of the car took place at the 2007 New York Auto Show in April. Obviously, the upcoming WRX has undergone a strict diet to strip those unwanted bulges.

“It’s refreshing to catch a glimpse of the top-mounted intercooler while looking at the functional hood scoop on the 2008 Subaru Impreza WRX. So many scoops, vents and wings are purely cosmetic nowadays. That the rest of the car is as mature and functional is a bonus,” said Phil Floraday of Auto Week.

“Wagon fans will notice that the wagon becomes a hatchback and goes by the term ‘five-door.’ The change from wagon to five-door also drops 110 pounds from the curb weight, so we have no complaints. Sedans only drop 50 pounds. To simplify matters, there will be no TR model at launch, but Subaru hasn’t ruled it out for later,” he added.

Subaru spent some time modifying the WRX to pave the way for a sleek and gorgeous car with exceptional performance and handling.

According to leaked documents posted on NASIOC.com, the Subaru Impreza WRX will be sold to the public starting September this year as a 2008 model car. During the New York Auto Show unveiling of the car, a spokesman announced that the next-gen Impreza WRC will be based on the hatch version of the car.

The upcoming car will be available in both a five-door hatch and a sedan. The engine used is still the EJ255. Peak horsepower and torque as the same, but the peak horsepower will output at 5600 rpm and the peak torque at 2800 rpm.

The sedan version has two exhaust outlets while the hatchback will have one exhaust outlet on the right. The car is based on a shortened Legacy platform. The front suspension uses a MacPherson strut setup while the rear is a new double wishbone suspension. Additionally, aluminum parts have been dropped due to the rising costs.

The EPA gives the next-gen car 19 mpg in the city and 24 mpg on the highway. Those who test drove the car said the numbers could probably be improved by a sixth gear, allowing for a better economy at freeway speeds. So far, the WRX has not been rated for emissions yet.

Wayne Cunningham of CNET has this to say: “Subaru's WRX gained cult popularity among video gamers and drivers who wanted racing performance on a budget. We tested out the newest iteration, the 2008 Subaru Impreza WRX, and have some bad news: the WRX has matured. Oh, it still has rally handling, a screaming engine, and a scoop on the hood for its intercooled turbocharger. But its refined body style will make it fit right in the corporate parking lot, and even the Subaru Forester has a hood scoop.”

Subaru rivals with the Legacy Spec.B, an all-wheel-drive car that offers Subaru's SI drive system. For about half the money, shoppers could also get the all-wheel-drive Suzuki SX4, although you should wait to see how well it does in World Rally Car competition, Cunningham noted.

What are the WRX’ good points? Taking Subaru car cover off the next-gen Impreza reveals the essentials. Enthusiasts say that the most fascinating feature of the car is the all-wheel-drive system which helps it hold the corners well. What is more, the navigation system has impressive graphics and a complete points-of-interest database; and the stereo has the most tweakable equalizer. What about the not-so good points? They say the unavailable Bluetooth cell phone integration and its mediocre fuel economy.
