2013 Impreza WRX STi test drive

2013 WRX STi
Although the Subaru Impreza WRX STi is a car driving hilarious, it begins to show signs of aging, so we expect a complete redesign soon.

The 2013 WRX STi offers exceptional performance thanks to its symmetrical Quattro permanent four-wheel, which helps driving under difficult weather while crossing curves at high speed.

Other attributes of this vehicle is that it has a turbocharged engine that produces 305 horsepower and two limited differentials (front and back) ensure that the power reaches the pavement.

Another detail which shows that soon WRX STi redesign is needed inside. Space and comfort are pretty good, but the quality materials position it under your direct competitors. Also, your sound system and navigation are some of his weak point.

The 2013 Impreza WRX STi sedan has BBS alloy wheels 18 ", Brembo brakes, front and rear differentials, SI-Drive system, sportier suspension, bigger air intake on the bonnet, with xenon headlights, seats heating. The model we tested was the WRX STi Limited sedan, which adds fog lamps, unique design wheels, sunroof and leather interior.

The navigation system is available for all models and this includes activation via voice commands, real-time traffic, text messaging capability and satellite radio.

Its engine is a 4 cylinder "boxer" 2.5-liter turbo-charged. This is capable of generating 305 horsepower and 290 pound-feet of torque. The 6-speed manual transmission helps that it can reach 60 mph in just 4.5 seconds and consume between 17 mpg in the city and 23 on the highway.

As for the driving experience is extraordinary. This sports sedan fits all kinds of curves, regardless of its layout and terrain. The engine power keeps circulating levels of adrenaline through the veins. The distribution of this power is guaranteed by its complex and effective system of permanent traction.

In terms of price, the 2013 Subaru Impreza WRX STi in the United States bordering the $ 40,000. This price is steep if you consider the quality of the materials inside, but the price is right if you take into account their performance and symmetrical AWD system.
