What to Know Before You Buy a 2026 Subaru Impreza
The 2026 Subaru Impreza is a compact five‑door hatchback with standard Symmetrical All‑Wheel Drive. That last part is the whole argument for it: the Honda Civic Hatchback, Toyota Corolla Hatchback and Mazda3 Hatchback either charge extra for all‑wheel drive or don't offer it at all. On the Impreza it comes on every trim.
Subaru simplified the lineup for 2026. The Base trim is gone, leaving two trims. The Sport uses a 2.0‑liter BOXER® four‑cylinder making 152 horsepower and 145 lb.‑ft. of torque. The RS steps up to a revised 2.5‑liter BOXER® rated at 180 horsepower and 178 lb.‑ft., tuned for stronger response at lower rpm. Both use a Lineartronic CVT with an eight‑speed manual mode and paddle shifters.
For Newark drivers, the Impreza fits a specific set of problems well. It parks in the tight lots and street spaces around the University of Delaware campus and downtown Main Street. It handles a January morning on an unplowed side street. And it does both at a price that keeps it within reach of first‑time buyers, students and anyone who wants all‑wheel drive without moving up to an SUV.

2026 Subaru Impreza Interior and Cargo Space
The Impreza offers up to 120.9 cubic feet of total interior volume and 20.4 cubic feet of cargo space — more than the Toyota Corolla Hatchback or Mazda3 Hatchback. The 60/40 split‑folding rear seats, wide hatch opening and low load floor make it behave more like a small wagon than a compact car, which is the point of buying a hatchback in the first place.
New for 2026, rear‑seat side airbags are standard, adding to the Impreza's all‑around impact protection.
The RS adds its own interior treatment: gunmetal and simulated carbon‑fiber trim accents, sport front seats in black cloth with red bolsters, RS‑branded floormats, a leather‑wrapped steering wheel and shifter, aluminum‑alloy pedal covers, a wireless phone charger, illuminated USB‑A and USB‑C ports in the rear center console and a retractable cargo cover.

2026 Subaru Impreza Technology
An 11.6‑inch Subaru STARLINK® Multimedia Plus touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ is standard on both trims — not an upgrade you have to pay for, which is unusual at this price point.
Available MySubaru® Connected Services adds remote services and vehicle status information. The RS includes a wireless phone charger and illuminated rear USB‑A and USB‑C charging ports.
An available RS option package adds a Harman Kardon® 10‑speaker system with a 432‑watt equivalent amplifier, a power moonroof and a 10‑way power‑adjustable front seat with lumbar support for $2,070 MSRP. [1]
2026 Subaru Impreza Safety Features
The latest version of EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology is standard on every 2026 Impreza, including Pre‑Collision Braking, Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Departure and Sway Warning and Lane Centering Assist.
Standard rear‑seat side airbags are new for 2026. The RS adds Blind‑Spot Detection with Rear Cross‑Traffic Alert, Automatic Emergency Steering and an All‑Weather Package.
The 2026 Subaru Impreza earned a 5‑Star Overall Vehicle Score from NHTSA and is a Consumer Reports Recommended Model.[3]
Driver-assistance features are not substitutes for attentive driving. Always drive safely and follow all applicable traffic laws.
2026 Subaru Impreza Performance and Fuel Economy
The Impreza Sport runs a 2.0‑liter BOXER® four‑cylinder producing 152 horsepower and 145 lb.‑ft. of torque. The Impreza RS upgrades to a revised 2.5‑liter BOXER® making 180 horsepower and 178 lb.‑ft., with more torque available lower in the rev range for better everyday responsiveness.
Both trims pair with a Lineartronic CVT featuring an eight‑speed manual mode and paddle shifters, and both send power through standard Symmetrical All‑Wheel Drive. The Sport adds SI‑DRIVE performance management, a sport‑tuned suspension and 18‑inch dark alloy wheels.
Fuel economy reaches up to an EPA‑estimated 33 MPG. [2] That combination — standard AWD and 30‑plus MPG in the same car — is the reason the Impreza keeps showing up on shopping lists next to front‑wheel‑drive compacts.
View Impreza Special Offers2026 Subaru Impreza Trim Levels
Subaru discontinued the Impreza Base trim for 2026, leaving two clearly separated choices: Sport and RS. Both are five‑door hatchbacks with standard Symmetrical All‑Wheel Drive.
2026 Subaru Impreza Sport
Starting MSRP: $26,595 [1]
The Sport is now the entry point to the Impreza lineup and carries most of what made the discontinued Base worth buying, plus real content of its own. Standard equipment includes the 152‑horsepower 2.0‑liter BOXER® engine, Symmetrical All‑Wheel Drive, the 11.6‑inch STARLINK® touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology, SI‑DRIVE, a sport‑tuned suspension and 18‑inch dark alloy wheels.
Best for: Drivers who want standard all‑wheel drive, strong fuel economy and full‑size touchscreen technology at the lowest Impreza price.
2026 Subaru Impreza RS
Starting MSRP: $29,495 [1]
The RS is the performance and equipment step up. Its revised 2.5‑liter BOXER® engine makes 180 horsepower and 178 lb.‑ft. of torque, and it adds an All‑Weather Package, Blind‑Spot Detection with Rear Cross‑Traffic Alert and Automatic Emergency Steering. Inside, it brings gunmetal and simulated carbon‑fiber accents, sport seats with red bolsters, a leather‑wrapped steering wheel and shifter, aluminum‑alloy pedal covers, a wireless phone charger and a retractable cargo cover.
Best for: Drivers who want noticeably stronger passing power, added driver‑assistance features and a sportier look without giving up winter traction.
Impreza Sport or Impreza RS: Which Should You Buy?
With only two trims, the decision is unusually clean. The gap between them is $2,900 MSRP, and it buys three things: 28 more horsepower, a meaningfully more equipped safety suite, and a sportier interior treatment.
Choose the Sport if your driving is mostly around Newark, Bear and Glasgow — surface streets, short commutes, errands. The 2.0‑liter is adequate for that, and you still get standard AWD, the full 11.6‑inch screen and EyeSight®.
Choose the RS if you spend real time on I‑95 or Route 1. The 2.5‑liter's extra low‑end torque matters most in exactly that situation — merging and passing at highway speed. Blind‑Spot Detection and Automatic Emergency Steering are also worth weighing if you commute in heavy traffic.
Not sure? Drive both back to back at our Newark showroom. The difference between the two engines is easy to feel in about five minutes.
