2025 Subaru Impreza: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026

The 2025 Subaru Impreza is a true carryover with no major product changes. It keeps the hatchback-only, three-trim lineup introduced with the 2024 redesign.
About the 2025 Subaru Impreza
6th generation (2024-present), second model year after the 2024 redesign; no mid-cycle refresh for 2025.
Subaru positions the Impreza as a compact hatchback that mixes everyday practicality with standard all-weather confidence. Its biggest selling point versus Civic, Corolla, and Mazda3 hatchback rivals is standard AWD, backed by Subaru’s safety-first messaging, hatchback cargo flexibility, and a roomy cabin for the class. The Impreza is for shoppers who want one small car that can handle commuting, bad weather, road trips, and daily cargo duty without stepping up to a small SUV.
The base Impreza is the practical choice, with standard AWD, a 152-hp engine, EyeSight driver aids, and dual 7-inch touchscreens. Sport adds sharper suspension tuning, 18-inch wheels, and an 11.6-inch touchscreen, while the enthusiast-focused RS brings a stronger 182-hp engine, upgraded brakes, heated front seats, and added driver-assistance features.
