Seconds out – round two: this is the new Cosworth-tuned Impreza STI CS400. And yes, that ‘400’ really does stand for 400bhp. In a hatchback. Hold on to your Evos, gentlemen, it’s about to get ugly…
The Cosworth Impreza STI CS400 is the first Cossie-developed road car since 1996, and packs a 2.5-litre four-pot Boxer engine turbocharged to within an inch of its life.

The Cossie's internals get high-performance, F1-derived pistons and forged, high-strength rods. And as any good petrolhead with tell you, a strong rod is essential. Cosworth has also fitted a short-throw six-speed manual box (good) with an all-wheel-drive system with two limited slip diffs, front and rear. The torque is split 50/50 but will vary according to conditions. Which roughly means “OHMYGODIT'SQUICKOHMYGODOHMYGOD”.
Coupled to an ECU upgrade, free-flowing exhaust and what is officially called a ‘Ruddy Big Turbo', the Cossie does the 0-62mph sprint in just 3.7 seconds, the quarter-mile in 12.75secs and tops out at 155mph. Crucially, the 0-62mph dash is 1/10th of a second quicker than a Mitsubishi Evo FQ-400. Na-na-na-naa-naa.
Cosworth worked with suspension techies Eibach and Bilstein to develop a bespoke package that would make the Impreza more liveable on a day-to-day basis as well as giving greater track focus. If this pans out as true, expect lots of cake to be had. And, er, eaten. It also gets larger AP racing brakes up front.
Reklāma
Just 75 examples of the Cosworth Impreza STI CS400 will be built, with a price tag of £49,995. It goes on sale in June. Want one?
