If you expect much with the concept model Subaru WRX Concept car on display at the New York Motor Show early in 2013 and then to design a very futurisitik , then get ready to be disappointed with a Subaru WRX 2015 was recently launched at the Los Angeles Motor Show 2013 last week . It turns out that the shape is not unlike like the Subaru Impreza is given more vivid display as the previous models . Yup , not the other models as promised in the draft version of the ever shown a few months ago .
Anyway , do not deplore zoom really the same of the Subaru Impreza , yet the car still has a lot of differences ranging from trinkets exterior accessories that make this car more sporty . Subaru WRX is equipped with a body kit that is wider ranging from fender to bumper . Black accents on detailing more so ranging from LED headlights , grille , scoop , fog lamp house enlarged upwards and use wheels that actually use the color black . The point of the exterior is very easy to find out this is a Subaru WRX or Subaru Impreza .
Most interesting is on the back of this car is equipped with 4 diffuser exhaust with a very gentle slope . The biggest difference compared to previous versions of the Subaru WRX , Subaru is now no longer use the aircraft style spoiler is very high and large at the rear , a spoiler now made minimalist cars like BMW .
In addition , there may be other interesting on the Subaru WRX legacy issues are now back to the right path . The point is this , put the first version of the Subaru Impreza WRX is a serious rival Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution , which is a 4-door sedan with a 2,000 cc engine Turbo AWD Rally highly malignant . Generations before 2015 WRX Subaru actually seems to want to avoid competition head-to -head with the Lancer Evo by changing the configuration of the Subaru WRX be a 5-door hatchback with a larger engine is 2,500 cc . Although ultimately launched the sedan version , too . And the funny thing was made Lancer Evo X hatchback version .
Well , in the 2015 model of the Subaru intent back to the right path , which makes Subaru WRX 2015 AWD 4-door sedan that has a 2,000 cc engine alone , or in terms of the car Subaru makes the eternal rivals of the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution . Penance also finally .....
Well talk about a 2,000 cc engine . Subaru gives the new engine , not a 2,000 cc engine ever used Subaru WRX version in 2007 with a capacity of 2,000 cc equally . For this new machine even though the contents of the smaller cylinder , but the engine power increased by 3 hp instead of 265 hp into 268 hp . Funnily enough supply Subaru 6 speed manual transmission variant and Sport Lineartronic CVT automatic transmission !
Funny is not it? Future sports cars use a CVT transmission ? CVT automatic transmission is generally used to provide fuel consumption more efficient than the acceleration , the feel of driving was also reduced because the method of tooth movement turns into a flexible lengthening the gear ratio in the absence of a conventional transmission -style displacement . But believe me that this car accelerates quite quickly invited . According to data from the Subaru , this car can accelerate from 0 to 100 km / h in just 5.4 seconds with a record using a manual transmission . CVT version definitely slower .
Compared with the previous engine , this engine has a fuel consumption of more fuel-efficient . According to Subaru , the car 's fuel consumption can reach 12.5l/100km and 9.4l/100 km on the highway .
For handling affairs , Subaru once again claim the car has better handling due to the use of the new Torque Vectoring system that goes into Subaru's Symmetrical AWD system . The use of the latest chassis base also makes this car more rigid than the previous version .
For the interior , it makes no difference anyway with the Subaru Impreza and Subaru XV . It's just for the WRX models are made more luxurious and the use of a Harman Kardon premium audio complete with a 4.3-inch LCD screen MID fancy .
