Next Subaru WRX to get a Turbocharged Version of the BRZ's 2.0-Liter Engine with Around 270HP


The pundits over at Motor Trend magazine are reporting today that a spokesperson from Subaru of America has confirmed that the next iteration of the WRX will mark a return to a smaller displacement 2.0-liter flat four engine instead of the 2.5-liter motor used on the current model.

The Subaru rep said that new engine would be a turbocharged version of the firm's FA20 unit found under the hood of the newly revealed Subaru BRZ and its Scion FR-S and Toyota 86 siblings, with a targeted output of around 270-horsepower.

The FA20 engine, which in naturally aspirated form produces 200-horses and 205Nm (151 lb-ft) of peak torque, is more compact than the 2.0-liter boxer from the FB family of engines used on the latest Impreza and Forester, while it also benefits from Toyota’s “D-4S” direct injection and port injection technology.

Subaru Impreza

2010-subaru-impreza-wrx-front-turingSubaru Impreza is a car that is often used to rally race car because it was able to run in poor road conditions and on paved roads. In adverse weather conditions, this car could be to rely on. Impreza is the ideal size to explore around the city while still being comfortable on the highway with large trucks and SUVs. It’s solid, safe, and simple, with the added attraction of all-wheel-drive, so be ready for any road driving conditions.

subaru_impreza_2.5gt_4_door_2010_dashboardImpreza sedan version comes with a 4-Door and 5-Door hatchback version. Styling of the five-door is edgier, while the four-door sedan looks more traditional. hatch is a bit sporty, shorter overall length, with a shorter rear overhang. short overhangs suggest a better handling and shorter overall length is useful in tight parking limits. hatch is also far more practical with a large cargo capacity.

2010-Subaru-Impreza-WRX-Seat-InteriorImpreza has a road trip smooth and responsive cornering, due to some parts for a relatively long wheelbase (103.1 inches), and lower engine placement, possibly because the position of the four-cylinder horizontally opposed. This will lower the center of gravity and improve the balance, contributing to agile cornering. Moreover, the stock Impreza WRX quick steering rack, with 2.8 turns out-to-lock key, and a tight turning circle of 34.8 meters. You can certainly feel it, and good. This sporty.

We did not find a flat spot in power or those places lacking. Standard five-speed manual gearbox works well. The optional four-speed automatic works fine machines, including when you need to hammer the throttle to pass a truck in the fast lane two.
