From Motor Trend New Impreza gets electric steering, no!
Apparently Subaru has gone over to the other side like many other makers, to steering that does not really tell the driver what the front wheels are doing- electric...news from Motor Trend...

"At just under 2950 pounds, the new Impreza 2.0i weighs 164 pounds less than the outgoing model, thanks to such improvements as redesigned seat frames, a smaller gas tank, and a switch to electric power steering."
A note of hope though, as Citroen have a switch out program for there DS3rs where they switch out the electric back to a Hydraulic system here...

I wonder what someone like Ian Litchfeild would think of this, as he has spent so much time trying to make his Impreza gain better steering feel. I wonder if he will figure out a way to switch out the 12' electric system for the Hydraulic?
