A Legacy Forged in Motorsport and Evolution:
First Generation (1992 – 2000; GC/GF):
Launched in 1992, the first-generation Impreza quickly built a prominent reputation both on the road and rally stages worldwide. Offering sedan (GC) and wagon (GF) variants, this compact car became synonymous with agile handling, affordability, and exceptional engineering. Subaru’s decision to equip selected Impreza models with symmetrical all-wheel drive resonated strongly among drivers who valued reliable traction in all conditions—significantly contributing to Subaru’s global rally dominance and securing an enthusiastic international following.
Second Generation (2000 – 2007; GD/GG):
The Impreza's second generation struck a bolder aesthetic statement, characterized primarily by its controversial yet later admired “Bug-eye” headlights in early versions. This model advanced significantly in chassis refinement, interior comfort, and safety standards, while the potent WRX and WRX STi variants continued rally-inspired high-performance traditions. Its engineering excellence was particularly popular in markets like the USA, Japan, Australia, Europe, and New Zealand where the car’s rally-inspired appeal flourished.
Third Generation (2007 – 2011; GH/GE):
More refined yet retaining its inherent character, the third generation embraced enhanced safety, greater cabin quality, and improved comfort for daily driving. Gone was the more aggressive appearance of earlier models, replaced by smoother, contemporary lines and a versatile hatchback format, designed to broaden its appeal without compromising Subaru’s hallmark performance capabilities and symmetrical AWD assurance.
Fourth Generation (2011 – 2016; GJ/GP):
The fourth generation presented an evolution in styling and spaciousness, extending passenger and cargo comfort significantly. Subaru’s introduction of advanced driver assistance and safety technologies in this iteration earned it praise, solidifying Impreza’s position as a practical family-friendly choice worldwide. Mature aesthetics, quiet refinement, and improved cabin technology were key pillars of this generation's global success.
Fifth Generation - Modern Mastery (2017 – 2022; GK/GT):
This latest-generation Impreza represented Subaru’s unwavering commitment to innovation, employing the Subaru Global Platform architecture. A significant leap forward saw reduced vibration, enhanced rigidity, improved suspension geometry, and lowered center of gravity, noticeably elevating its driving dynamics, comfort, and crash safety performance. Offered as both sedan (GK) and hatchback (GT), this generation provided drivers worldwide with a vehicle genuinely illustrating Subaru's dedication to thoughtful engineering, reliable performance, and everyday practicality.
Key Advantages of the Impreza GK/GT Models:

The route is effortlessly mirrored onto the upgraded infotainment system via CarPlay or Android Auto, a thoughtful convenience ensuring relaxed driving even in unfamiliar urban environments.
Additionally, upgrading comes complete with the option of a crystal-clear 1080p resolution HD camera system for both front and rear views. Continuous video recording lends peace of mind, heightened safety, improved visibility during tricky maneuvers, and valuable evidence capture if unexpected incidents occur.
Moreover, sophisticated contemporary features enable the use of integrated USB ports for leisure gaming—a unique opportunity that passengers can enjoy, using popular game controllers connected directly into the premium head unit. Equipped with responsive controls and vibrant screens, passengers engage in multiplayer cooperative or competitive gameplay, carefree, on longer journeys.
