It's Not Hard to See Why the 2018 Subaru Impreza is Such a Popular Compact Car

Since the Subaru Impreza was completely redesigned for the 2017 model-year, the 2018 model cruises in with very little changes--the only differences you'll see are new automatic wipers on select models. Trim levels for both sedan and hatchback configurations include the Impreza 2.0i, 2.0i Premium, 2.0i Sport, and the 2.0i Limited.

A Crisp and Comfortable Interior

The new 2018 Impreza features a premium cloth upholstery, a driver-attentive layout, plenty of legroom for all four passengers, and an impressive list of standard features, including a touchscreen display and rearview camera. Opt for the hatchback model, and the Impreza delivers up to 52.4 cubic feet of space, which is on par with some SUVs. Interior comfort is improved with a sound-reducing windshield on Premium trims and above, while available heated front seats, leather upholstery, and upgraded audio round out the experience.   

Classic Subaru Styling

You won't have to look twice to know that this is a Subaru: from the iconic grille to clean lines and rounded corners, the Impreza is all class. Most models offer roof rails and alloy wheels standard for a sporty look, while an available package adds a broad and stylish power sunroof to add some nature into your daily drive. The 2018 Impreza 2.0i Sport is the most visually different in the lineup, and stands out with trim-specific exterior features.

Practical Engine Power and AWD Capability

The 2018 Impreza is not the most powerful car in its class, but it's perfect for the average commuter. A standard 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine makes 152 horsepower and 145 pound-feet of torque, and pairs to a smooth CVT on most models to optimize fuel economy; a manual transmission is standard on the 2.0i base and Sport model. Standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive is naturally included on every model. The Impreza 2.0i Sport (which is the only way you can get a manual Impreza with leather) also adds active torque vectoring for even further-improved traction.

New Technology, Smart Safety

The 2018 Impreza gives you STARLINK infotainment and a touchscreen display standard on every model, even the base sedan. Entry-level models use a 6.5-inch screen, that's perfectly easy to use, while upper-level models upgrade to a tablet-like 8-inch touchscreen instead. Subaru EyeSight is available, and adds adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning with automatic braking, automatic reverse braking, and lane departure warning and mitigation.
