2012 Subaru Impreza

The Subaru Impreza got a complete redesign for 2012, and is only offered in sedan form in the GCC. Interestingly, the WRX versions have spun off into a separate model line and continue unchanged from their pre-2012 forms, at least until 2014. The Impreza is now offered with either a 1.6-litre or a 2.0-litre 4-cylinder boxer engine, both mated to a CVT automatic and all-wheel-drive. Standard features in the 1.6i model include 15-inch steel wheels with hubcaps, power windows and mirrors, multi-function display, automatic a/c, CD/MP3 stereo with AUX port, 60/40 folding rear seats and cloth upholstery. The 2.0i model adds the larger engine, 16-inch alloy wheels, cruise control, fog lamps, faux paddle-shifters and a rear-seat centre armrest with cup-holders. Standard safety features include front dual airbags, stability control and ABS with EBD, along with the all-weather traction of asymmetrical all-wheel-drive.
