Subaru previews next-gen Impreza at LA!!!

Subaru has teased us about a concept due to be presented at LA Auto Show... would this be a concept related to the upcoming FT-86, or perhaps the new Impereza (earlier post)...? OK, now we know. It's about the Impreza!

Subaru says the concept is an expression of its new global theme, "Confidence in Motion." Subaru claims that this design language is sporty, with more interior space and excellent aerodynamic stability, bla bla bla... The point is that this concept previews the automaker's future design language and brand strategy. My personal opinion is that it was about time, as the Impreza has suffered a lot from unsuccessful design practices.

Under the hood is Subaru's 2.0-liter boxer engine, mated to its Lineartronic continuously variable transmission. The company says this represents its next generation of powertrains.
