Impreza RS rebirth of a classic

 Its been over 2 decades since Subaru dropped The RS trim off its Impreza lineup. Its now back for 2024, but they are changes to its rebirth. The RS will be a hatchback only car. It will still have Subaru's Symmetrical AWD but not turbocharged this time around like its predecessors in the past. It still boasts a 2,5 liter boxer engine. So look for these in the showroom in the future. Msrp is unknown as of now.










The 2023 Honda Accord Sport Hybrid

 As the car industry is making a full push to go electric by the next decade, there is still hybrids that will be arriving to dealerships currently or into the future. I got to see the new 11th gen Honda Accord which has a refreshed look from the last generation for 2023 as I saw the Sport Hybrid which is one out of six trims. The LX, EX, Sport  and L Hybrid, EX-L Hybrid and touring hybrid which is the top of the line Accord. Engines are a 1.5L turbocharged 4cyl or the 2.0 hybrid 4cyl at 204 hp and thats the car I'm focusing on when I saw it at the Lehigh Valley Auto Show. It has 19 inch wheels, Apple/Android car play head unit. with Alexa built in and Google built in. looking at the new accord which reminds me of a mazda 6 or Audi RS7 fastback. Msrp for the Accord Sport Hybrid goes for a little over 30K. Not a bad value for a Hybrid.
