|  We've often found ourselves in the apologist camp when it came to the latest design of the current Subaru Impreza. The company has a long and storied history of producing vehicles with faces only a mother could love, so we just assumed that the squinty visage of the latest model was just an homage to homely rides of the past. Well, you can go ahead and forget all that. Subaru just dropped details on its new Impreza Design Concept, and the car is the kind of beautiful worth writing home about. The design retains the mammoth wheel arches of the current Impreza, but blends in more subdued Legacy styling for a much more mature, handsome face. The fascia is dominated by two aggressive air intakes that are large enough to swallow small livestock. Those holes are framed by the new trapezoidal grille and furrowed headlamps. Interestingly enough, the fins that spread across the air inlets are actually functional fog lights. Under the hood, the design study makes use of the company's new 2.0-liter naturally-aspirated four-cylinder engine bolted to a CVT gearbox. Subaru, if you're listening, build this sucker.

| i really like this but would have hoped they'd drop a turbo lump in it. give it a mid level rear spoiler and bonnet vent like those new Mazda3 MPS and think it'd look awesome  i can see the Mondeo reference but must have been on some major steroids! |

| No it's just wrong I think, probably because it's similar to the cars mentioned above which I'm not particularly keen on either |

| Back end looks even worse:-  Doesn't even remind me of a Scooby, if you took away the badge it could just be any Ford or Vauxhall model. | |
