Buffalo drivers, we’ve got a sneak peek at one of the newest additions to the lineup at West Herr Subaru Kia—the 2012 Impreza.

The all-new model made its industry debut at the 2011 New York International Auto show, showcasing its dynamic design and new power train.

Better yet, the 2012 Impreza boasts a 30-percent improvement in fuel economy over previous models, along with more room, greater agility and a higher level of refinement. And it’s all set to arrive at your Subaru dealer serving Buffalo this fall.

A 148-hp 2.0-liter Subaru BOXER engine will power the new Impreza. Two transmission options will be available for Buffalo drivers: a five-speed manual transmission or the second-generation of our Lineartronic CVT (continuously variable transmission). And that 30-percent improvement in fuel economy we mentioned translates into projected EPA ratings of 27 miles per gallon city and 36 miles per gallon highway—some of the most impressive fuel efficiency numbers available for Buffalo drivers today.

With that new engine comes a lighter vehicle weight, especially for drivers who opt for the CVT, which is lighter, quieter and more compact than in previous years.  The CVT operates on fixed gear ratios, smoothly adapting to performance demands to keep the engine performing at the most efficient operating range at all times.

The electric power steering system on the 2012 Impreza also helps boost the overall fuel efficiency by two percent.

Subaru’s tradition of safety continues with the 2012 Subaru Impreza soon available near Buffalo, which is designed to excel under new, more strict safety-testing regulations. A new driver’s knee airbag has been added to the Impreza’s already impressive list of safety features. Passengers are exposed to less impact force than before thanks to the front airbags shell-type design.

All Impreza models for 2012 are equipped as standard with Vehicle Dynamics Control (VDC), which combines stability and traction control functions. Likewise, all 2012 Impreza models are equipped with a standard 4-wheel disc Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) with Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) and the Brake Assist safety system.

Details on additional features, including more on the spacious new interior and entertainment amenities, are available at your leading Subaru dealer serving Buffalo.
