Why it stands out

The 2018 Subaru Impreza stands out as a compact car that combines standard all-wheel drive with a practical, mainstream-friendly character. In its fifth generation, it gained the Subaru Global Platform, which brought increased chassis rigidity and a lower centre of gravity, along with better handling and ride quality. It also added Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard across all trims, while keeping sedan and hatchback body styles and Subaru’s Symmetrical All-Wheel-Drive.

For 2018, the Impreza used a direct-injected 2.0-litre boxer engine rated at 152 horsepower, with a five-speed manual still available on lower trims and the continuously variable transmission becoming more prominent. Standard equipment included a 6.5-inch infotainment touchscreen, cruise control, and incline-start assist, and available features included heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, steering responsive headlights, EyeSight driver-assistance technology, and a moonroof. A mid-cycle refresh did not arrive until 2020, so the 2018 model year is best understood as part of the generation’s early, mechanically significant phase rather than a heavily updated one.

Its appeal is easy to understand: the Impreza offers the security of standard AWD, a comfortable driving experience, and useful technology without moving away from the compact-car formula. The trade-offs are also clear, with some interior materials that feel cheap, not much cargo space, and styling that is described as uninspired.
