50:50 front/rear, while up to 80% can be sent to the other end. In the case of Subaru we’ve got a limited-slip center to enhance torque transfer performance, the default torque split is 41:59 front/ rear and it can be set to an even 50:50 distribution. Because of the complexity and the technology this is a point to Mitsubishi engineers. Last but not leastwe have the acceleration and top speed. Impreza needs 5.3 seconds to reach the 100 km/h from the repose, and it is able to hit the 250 km/h, a little better than the 6.2 seconds that the Lancer takes to overtake the 100 km/h from the repose, and the

nothing bad 243 km/h top speed. Here Mazda is the clear winner because it may sound a little bit a difference of 1 second but it is a lot when you are comparing two cars that are almost the same in theory. After all the analysis we can conclude that both Lancer and Impreza have almost the same Horsepower, torque, top speed, transmission, etc. the only “big� difference could be the body but both have prominent air intakes and exaggerated spoilers, so it depends on the person, in my opinion the Impreza is better but in theory they are the same.
