History and achievements of the Subaru Impreza WRC '99: The Subaru Impreza WRC '99 was one of the most technologically advanced rally cars of its time. Equipped with a fly-by-wire system and a semi-automatic six-speed gearbox, it allowed drivers to shift gears faster using paddles mounted on the steering wheel, inspired by technology used in Formula 1. This solution reduced the risk of gearbox wear, which was a significant factor in rallying.

In 1999, the Subaru Impreza WRC '99 debuted in the first round of the championship, but the team struggled with technical issues until the seventh round in Argentina. Despite the difficulties, this car contributed to the development of technologies that later became standard in WRC cars until they were banned by championship regulations in 2011.

The Subaru Impreza WRC '99 was also the first rally car to introduce these innovations, highlighting its significance in the history of motorsports. Although the WRC2000 model looked almost identical to the WRC99, its design was radically different, resulting from a ten-month development process during which over 80% of mechanical and electronic components were redesigned.
