Over the past few years, its seems like more and more regular cars have multi-piston brake calipers like the new subaru impreza. 10 or 15years ago, even performance oriented cars didn’t frequently have those until you went pretty far up market. And it doesn’t seem like it is for marketing, since it isn’t often advertised. If single piston calipers were good for an audi s4, why does a new subaru impreza need multi-piston calipers? have there been developments in cost or technology?

    Unless you’re talking about the rear single piston brakes on some smaller cars I can’t think of one car that doesn’t have more than one piston calipers. I’ve never heard of one with less than two on the front.
