2025 Subaru Impreza

The redesigned 2024 Impreza comes as strictly a hatchback. The trim choices have been simplified as well, with just Base, Sport, and RS. The standard engine is a carryover from the 2023 model, a 152-hp, 2.0-liter flat four-cylinder. But the new RS trim has a more lively 180-hp, 2.5-liter flat four. Both engines are matched to a continuously variable transmission, and all-wheel drive is again standard. All Imprezas come with the latest version of the EyeSight suite of active safety systems. Subaru claims that the system works faster and under a wider range of conditions than before. The top trim RS adds standard BSW and RCTW.

Brand context

About Subaru

<p>Subaru is known for driver-friendly cars and SUVs with standard full-time all-wheel drive. Its models frequently rank near the top of Consumer Reports’ owner satisfaction and reliability ratings, making some used Subarus a good choice. Along with all-wheel drive, Subarus are known for using a “boxer” style four-cylinder engine with opposing pistons that move horizontally. The design reduces vibration and gives the vehicle a low center of gravity. Most Subarus have options like heated seats and leather upholstery. The Crosstrek and Forester are each available as a fuel-efficient hybrid. The brand’s first electric vehicle, the Solterra, is joined by the Trailseeker and Uncharted SUVs. Sports cars like the WRX and rear-drive BRZ showcase the brand’s wilder side.</p>
