Learn Why the Subaru Impreza Is Such an Impressive Car in Portland, OR

Performance

The new Subaru Impreza is just as ready for the outdoors as its other Subaru peers. The Subaru Impreza also has Subaru's sophisticated Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive standard to help it travel through just about any weather and road conditions. The Subaru Impreza also packs plenty of power under the hood.

When it's powered by the continuously variable automatic (CVT) transmission, the Subaru can drive up to 32 mpg, which is an impressive number for a car with all-wheel drive. All trims of the new Subaru Impreza have a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine. The Subaru's engine delivers 152 horsepower and 145 pound-feet of torque.

If you want to take gear-shifting into your own hands, you can opt for the five-speed manual rather than the automatic for your transmission with the Subaru Impreza. In order to personalize your driving experience even more, you can choose to get SI-Drive from Subaru, which adds more selectable drive modes.

Design

As with other Subaru vehicles, the Impreza is a sporty and rugged vehicle on the outside with an equally intrepid powertrain and handling system to match. Safety is also at the forefront of the Subaru's design, which includes bold LED lights for optimal visibility. While these features are common across the Subaru Impreza lineup, there are other features that vary by trim level.

The base model of the Subaru features 16-inch steel wheels that also include wheel covers. Alloy wheels are an exterior upgrade with all but the base trim. If adventure is your cup of tea, upgrading from the base trim also adds more outdoor-oriented elements including roof rails and fog lights. The suspension system on this model is also upgraded.

Larger alloy wheels are a notable quality of the Sport model, which also has wider tires for a more performance-ready vibe. LED headlights are a noteworthy feature, standard on the top trim, that make it easier to see at night and in low-light conditions around Longview, WA.

Technology

Although the Subaru Impreza might look the part of an adventurous off-road vehicle, it has plenty of tech-savvy features to rival the top family vehicles on the road, too. The Subaru Impreza has standard Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay®, allowing you to pair your smartphone with the infotainment system easily as you set out for Beaverton. The Subaru Impreza also has a four-speaker audio system and one USB port.

If you want more USB charging ports you can upgrade to the second trim level, which has two USB ports total. The sound system also gets an upgrade with six speakers. Some amenities are available for select trims, including an available Harman Kardon sound system and navigation for the Sport and Limited models.

Trim Levels

The Subaru Impreza is made in a sedan and hatchback body style. There are four trims in each body design. The base model has all-wheel drive and the choice between a manual or an automatic transmission. It has cloth seats and cruise control for comfortable highway driving. If versatility is a concern, Gresham shoppers will appreciate the split-folding capability of the back row.

The Premium trim, next up on the lineup, adds more USB ports for device charging and roof rails for more storage capacity for your next road trip out of Vancouver, WA.

A more elegant look and more performance capabilities come with the Sport, which has slightly larger wheels and tires. A push-button ignition and keyless entry come with the Sport as well. Technology also gets a boost with the switch to an 8-inch display rather than the standard 6.5-inch touchscreen.

The Limited model is at the top of the chain, and it's only available with the hatchback body style. There are many upgrades to this trim, including leather upholstery and a power-adjustable driver's seat. Automatic climate control is also standard.
