2015 Subaru Impreza

Subaru first released the Impreza to the American automotive market in 1992.

Since its beginning, the Impreza has been offered in two different variations: A four door sedan, and a five door hatchback. The Impreza was also briefly available as a coupe, from 1995 until 2000, when the Japanese automaker decided to stick with the two most popular body styles. Subaru offers the Impreza with a standard all-wheel drive engine, and an affordable starting MSRP, making it stand out above other compact vehicles in its segment.

The 2015 Subaru Impreza is in the vehicle’s fourth generation, and has a long list of new updates for this model year. As Subaru does with all of its vehicles, safety is a number one priority on the 2015 Impreza. The compact sedan/hatchback has taken home numerous safety awards, and offers some of the most advanced safety technology in its class.

On top of safety, the 2015 Subaru Impreza offers a lot of standard and optional features, all at an affordable price. Those who value quality, safety, in-vehicle amenities, and cost savings, simply cannot go wrong with the 2015 Impreza.

New and Improved for 2015

Subaru gave the Impreza an impressive list of upgrades and new design features for 2015. The sedan and hatchback variations both received changes worth noting, in nearly every category. Changes range from exterior appearance, to interior upgrades, and even new safety features. Discover the new Impreza, detailed in each section, below.

Exterior

The newly redesigned headlights give the Impreza a more aggressive look. A new front bumper, and revised grille accompany the updated headlights, for an all-around new front-end appearance. Sedan models gained a low-profile trunk spoiler, outfitted with LED lights.

The design team at Subaru wanted to ensure that the Impreza continued to offer exceptional fuel economy ratings, so they created new exterior mirrors designed to enhance the vehicle’s aerodynamics. Drivers can choose from two new exterior colors: Crystal White Pearl, or Crystal Black Silica.

Interior

The 2015 Impreza received additional features to its interior, as well. One of the most important new aspects can’t be seen, but rather heard - or not heard. Thanks to advanced sound deadening material, improved sealing, and thicker side glass windows, the Impreza is noticeably a quieter ride.

All models now offer a touch-screen infotainment system, including a standard rear vision camera. An updated instrument cluster, new lighting features, and push-button start system with PIN code access, are all a part of the new 2015 Impreza.

Safety

New safety features are present on the 2015 Subaru Impreza, and vary depending on which trim level is chosen. Subaru’s EyeSight Driver Assist Technology is the most notable new safety addition to the Impreza lineup, and it includes steering-responsive fog lights, adaptive cruise control, pre-collision braking, lane sway / departure warning, and a pre collision throttle management system.

With the Impreza, Safety Comes First

Subaru is known for creating vehicles that not only appeal to the senses, but also to the highest possible safety standards. The Japanese automaker has succeeded in the Impreza, which was named a Top Safety Pick by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.

The Impreza earned the highest possible rating from the organization, in evaluations of front moderate overlap, front small overlap, roof crush, side impact, and rear impact collisions. The 2015 Impreza earned this award, along with six other Subaru models - making the brand the most awarded automotive brand on the market.

It is obvious that Subaru puts safety first, and that is no exception with the 2015 Impreza. Check out the top five ways that Subaru incorporates safety throughout the entirety of the all-new Impreza.

• EyeSight Driver Assist Technology - This available technology, is a completely new addition for 2015. Drivers can rest easy, knowing that their Impreza is watching out for them on the road. This new system features pre-collision warnings, pre-collision braking, pre-collision throttle management, lane departure warning, and adaptive cruise control. No other vehicle in its segment offers the same amount of safety features that are available with Impreza’s EyeSight technology.

• Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive - This technology comes standard on all Impreza models, and helps to send power to all four wheels at the same time, for the highest amount of traction. This advanced system helps you stay on the road, and on your intended course - even in inclement weather and poor road conditions.

• Vehicle Dynamics Control - This stability control system works by automatically sensing braking and steering inputs, to help keep your Impreza where you want it - on the road.

• Smart Braking System - The Impreza features standard antilock braking system, and electronic brake-force distribution standard on all trim levels. The systems work together to balance braking, and apply the greatest braking force, when immediate stopping becomes necessary.

• Advanced Protection System - The 2015 Impreza was designed with seven standard airbags throughout the cabin, including driver knee and side-curtain airbags. The high-tensile steel reinforcement frame surrounding the Impreza’s cabin, helps to divert collision impacts around the vehicle, rather than through it.

Most Affordable All-Wheel Drive Vehicle in its Class

The 2015 Subaru Impreza is not only an affordable car, it is also one of the only vehicles in its segment to offer an all-wheel drive system. Subaru takes it one step further, making its advanced all-wheel drive system standard on all Impreza models. Neither the 2015 Toyota Corolla, 2015 Honda Civic, or the 2015 Ford Focus, offer all-wheel drive as even an option, let alone as a standard feature.

On top of offering a better standard driving experience, the 2015 Subaru Impreza also offers the lowest starting MSRP out of any of the above competitors. None of the its competitors even come close to the value that is offered with the 2015 Subaru Impreza. Drivers who want a great ride, without sacrificing price, can’t choose any better compact vehicle than the 2015 Subaru Impreza.
