This is how the new Subaru Impreza STi will look when it is unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September. CAR Online??s exclusive artist's impressions are based on the styling of the standard new hatchback Impreza, with input from Subaru insiders who have shaped the new STi.

And yes, it??s a hatchback. In an attempt to capture more Golf buyers, Subaru will only offer the Impreza as a five-door in Europe. The US saloon version won??t be offered here, and the estate dies.

As our images show, the STi version loses its hallmark rear wing but will keep the huge bonnet air scoop and blistered wheelarches that made the old car so distinctive. Dinner-plate foglamps, gold wheels and world-rally blue paintwork will all be options and should help appease die-hard Impreza nuts disappointed with the new car??s styling. And of course, add a few stickers and you??ve got Subaru??s next WRC car.
