2015 Subaru WRX does What it Was Made For [VIDEO]


Subaru released this new clip of the 2015 Impreza WRX tackling some dirty roads. I guess we will all have to learn to love the way it looks..

As a refresher, the new 2015 WRX is powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder Boxer engine producing 268 Hp and 349 Nm (256 lb/ft) of torque. Power is sent to all four wheels through a five-speed DIY transmission or a six-speed manual transmission. The 0 to 60 mph (98 km/h) time is 5.4 seconds (with the five-speed DIY transmission).

The interior is a massive improvement over the 2014 model but then again, it could be better. More pcitures and details in the press release after the jump.

2015 Subaru Legacy Concept Revealed Ahead of LA


Subaru revealed the 2015 Legacy concept ahead of the L.A. Motor Show next week. The first thing that comes to mind is that the new Legacy looks a little bit Huyundai-ish.
