The 3rd generation Impreza debuted in May of 2007, and its long awaited STI version was added to the lineup in October of the same year. The new Impreza was no longer a four door sedan as in the past, it now came in a new 5 door hatchback body. And though the wheel base was extended by 3.9 inches in comparison to the previous model, the total length of the new car was actually shorter by 1.9 inches because the rear trunk section was now much shorter.

abstract	The 3rd generation Impreza debuted in May of 2007, and its long awaited STI version was added to the lineup in October of the same year. The new Impreza was no longer a four door sedan as in the past, it now came in a new 5 door hatchback body. And though the wheel base was extended by 3.9 inches in comparison to the previous model, the total length of the new car was actually shorter by 1.9 inches because the rear trunk section was now much shorter. In order to accommodate wider tires, it has been given large oversized fenders, expanding the width by 55mm. This was the first time that the STI version was given special dedicated body panels in this manner. This was then matched with an SI tuned chassis, improving the handling performance of the Impreza greatly. One detail that is different from previous models, is that the car is not equipped with high grip tires. Probably following the same philosophy as the Lancer Evo X, a larger emphasis was placed on its performance as a road going car, rather than lap times on a circuit. The EJ20 turbo was powered up to 304 HP. A dual AVCS (Active Valve Control System) variable valve timing system was utilized, but this seems to be more for emissions. The VDC which has become common in Europe, is set up with dual modes so that it will come into effect less during sports driving. There are many details like this that characterize the car as a special STI model. The front to rear torque distribution can be controlled manually by the DCCD (Driver Control Center Differential) as in previous models, and gives effective traction to the STI version with its higher performance. And the operational feel of the 6 speed MT is excellent, allowing drivers to truly enjoy sports driving.
