Prices in Japan range from 1.36 million Yen (£10,350) to 1.87 million Yen (£14,200).

Subaru currently has no plans to bring the car to the UK. However, with the increasing popularity of B-segment supermini MPVs like the Citroen C3 Picasso, Nissan Note and Kia Venga, that decision is subject to change.

In Japan, the Trezia is powered by a choice of 1.3-liter and 1.5-liter inline-four cylinder gasoline engines mated to a CVT, but in Europe the 1.5 will be replaced with a 1.4-liter diesel. In Japan, the Trezia can be had with all-wheel-drive provided car buyers check off the box for the more powerful engine, which will likely be the turbodiesel in Europe.

With its roomy interior and diminutive footprint, the Trezia will likely do well overseas. But will we ever see Subaru's Fit-fighter in North America? With gas prices once again on the rise, it might not be a bad idea.

new Design Interior The Subaru Trezia

Subaru's designers only made a few changes to the front of the car, adding the brand's signature grille, a revised bumper and rounding up the headlights. As for the rest, it is virtually identical to Toyota's Verso-S. On the inside, changes are hard to spot too, with only the logos differentiating the two models.

The Trezia offers 429 liters of boot space, which can be extended if the rear bench is folded (60/40). With all seats in place, the car can accommodate five passengers plus “three large suitcases” (Subaru's claim). Buyers have a choice of two engines, none of which being a boxer - a 1.3-liter petrol and a 1.4-liter diesel unit. Both are sourced from Toyota and offer 99 and 90 horsepower respectively.

2011 Subaru Impreza-STI mode

Imprezas are assembled in Ota and Gunma, Japan and Lafayette, Indiana, USA. They fall into the size category of Toyota Corolla, Honda Civic, Nissan Sentra and Mitsubishi Lancer (and Lancer Evolution), though their followers consider them much sportier and their value retention is much higher than most of their competition.

Continuing the evolution of its Impreza WRX, Subaru announced today that it will unveil the 2011 model year versions of the car at next week's New York International Motor Show. Inspired by the brand's STI model, both the five-door hatch and four-door sedan Impreza WRX benefit from a new wide-body design for a more masculine appearance.

Subaru Impreza WRX with a New Machine

Subaru introduced the Impreza in the 1993 model year offering this vehicle in four door and five door sedans and a five door station wagon. The name is derived from the Italian word for 'impressive party' or 'outstanding event.' The Impreza was positioned as a sporty driving, utilitarian compact car available with a boxer engine and all-wheel-drive.

Subaru engineers widened the WRX's front and rear tracks by 1.5-inches while the car also gets firmer rear subframe bushings and wider 17-inch wheels and tires (235/45R17 vs. 225/45R17).
