The Performance-B STI concept represents Subaru’s continued commitment to internal combustion performance. Powered by a traditional engine and Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, it aims to balance power and everyday usability while offering customers a wider range of performance options.

As far as performance figures go, Subaru did not give any further details, but the Performance-B STI does seem to look production ready.

Let’s just hope these concepts do come to fruition in order to return the STI nameplate.
