    Subaru Impreza 2017

    Subaru Impreza 2017

    FROM
    $13,420

    The 2017 Subaru Impreza range of configurations is currently priced from $8,500.

    Our most recent review of the 2017 Subaru Impreza resulted in a score of 6.9 out of 10 for that particular example.

    Carsguide Contributing journalist Peter Anderson had this to say at the time: I drove the new Impreza in January and came away hugely... um... impressed. It's so much better than the old one inside and out. Even the transmission passes muster and I can't stand CVT autos. The Impreza remains individualistic (although the sedan isn't very pretty) and characterful but without the dodgy interiors and creaking undercarriage.

    This is what Peter Anderson liked most about this particular version of the Subaru Impreza: New platform, Good interior, Good value, especially safety gear

    The 2017 Subaru Impreza carries a braked towing capacity of up to 1200 Kg, but check to ensure this applies to the configuration you're considering.

    The Subaru Impreza is also known as subaru xv in markets outside Australia.

    Subaru Impreza 2017 FAQs

    Why does my 2017 Subaru Impreza smell like rotten eggs?

    The smell you're describing has been around since 1986 when all new cars sold in Australia were forced to use unleaded petrol. That move was to protect the catalytic converters fitted from that date (leaded fuel would have damaged them) and the combination of these converters and the new fuel resulted in the smell you're noticing. So it's not new, but it does vary from car to car and possibly even from one brand of fuel to another.

    It's supposed to be harmless to humans, but if you can smell it, that automatically means you're being exposed to other chemicals in the car's exhaust emissions, including various carcinogens and carbon-monoxide which is a known killer. Think of the rotten-egg smell as an early-warning system that there's exhaust gas in the air around you. Excessive gas can also be a symptom of a car's engine that is not turned correctly.

    It's really important not to run a car engine inside a garage for any longer than is absolutely necessary as these toxins can build up very quickly. It sounds like your garage is attached to your house, and that reminds me why garages were once separate to the house they served. (As were kitchens in the very old days, as a means of ensuring a kitchen-fire didn't take the rest of the house with it.) Don't be tempted to reverse into the garage, instead drive in nose-first, leaving the tailpipe nearest the garage opening and never start the car with the garage door closed.

    Subaru Impreza 2017: Window suddenly shattered

    If you've got dash cam footage that conclusively shows the breakage wasn't caused by some external impact I would say, yes, pursue it. But if there weren't conclusive proof that it wasn't caused by an object impacting the glass I wouldn't go any further.
