The Impreza XV crossover was created on the basis of the five-door Impreza model. The abbreviation in the name stands for X - cross and V - vehicle. Distinctive features include, among other things, the design of the front bumper and radiator grille. To highlight the "crossover" of the car, not only redesigned the front of the body, but also endowed the car with appropriate side trim, including powerful wheel arches with plastic linings, and installed black aluminum roof rails. The shock-absorbing properties of the rear suspension are improved, hence the sportier driving characteristics. The world premiere took place at the 80th Geneva International Motor Show in March 2010. For the Japanese market, the Impreza XV crossover (2010-2011) was offered with boxer engines of 1.5 liters and 2.0 liters. Salon Impreza XV inherited from the base model with minimal changes.

The Impreza XV has white instrument lighting. Standard equipment includes a climate control system with an air filter, power accessories for controlling mirrors and windows, an electric driver's seat, and a button start. The high level of equipment is complemented by standard xenon, aluminum wheel rims, foglights. Options also included a hard drive navigation system, DVD, winter package.

Fuel consumption is 6.6 l / 100 km for the 1.5-liter model and 7.1 l / 100 km for the 2.0-liter version.

However, the engine is installed lower than on the "civil" Impreza, the body has increased rigidity, the main components of the chassis are made reinforced. In Japan, the crossover has almost the same ground clearance as the Impreza - 155 mm. The total body height is 1520 mm, which is 45 mm more than that of the hatchback. Crossover length - 4430 mm (15 mm longer than the hatchback), width 1770 mm (+30 mm). The wheelbase has a size of 2615 mm, a turning radius of 5.3 m. The car is equipped with 205 / 55R16 tires.

The list of equipment includes front and side airbags (optional - curtain airbags); child seat mountings, active head restraints. The standard equipment also includes ABS with EBD, brake assist, electronic stability control, traction control. Fans highly appreciate this model, which allows you to stand out even among the "subarists" - this is such an unusual version of the Impreza. On the sites of the secondary market, right-hand drive Impreza XVs are less common than cars with left-hand drive (Impreza XV was officially sold in Russia). And, as a rule, they are distinguished by advanced equipment at a very affordable price. The owners call the disadvantages of the car expensive maintenance, cheap plastic in the cabin, a small trunk.
