Firstly do they exist? Secondly are they 296bhp with a manual box and thirdly does anyone have any info on them?

I've consulted the internet and lots of people in 2016 seemed to say they were coming but I can't seem to see any for sale or any reviews of them.

It's the first thing I've read about in 5 years that seems like it could be a worthy replacement/stable mate for the Foz STi.

Switzerland was where I saw my first Levorg back in 2016. I always assumed it was Impreza size but recently learnt it has a larger boot than the SG9 Forrester.

I keep seeing mention of a 296bhp Japanese model but can't find anything on it. Maybe an email to a friendly importer is wise.

So to answer my own question and anyone who finds this thread.

I spoke to a well respected importer who actually brought a Levorg STi into the country this year. They are all CVT and around 265bhp.

My search started as Auto Car and Auto Express both made mention of a 296bhp Manual version.

No luck unfortunately, thanks for the comments above sadly it doesn't exist.

Yep 100% I just thought it was worth updating the thread for people in the future.
