2027 Subaru Impreza Priced Lower With Increased Horsepower

Subaru has announced pricing and specifications for the 2027 Subaru Impreza, revealing a notable reduction in its Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) for the base model. The 2027 Impreza will start at $22,995, representing a decrease of $1,900 compared to the outgoing 2024 model's starting price of $24,895. This price adjustment positions the compact car more competitively within its segment. In addition to the lower cost, the 2027 Impreza also receives a slight power upgrade. The base model is now equipped with a 2.0-liter SUBARU BOXER engine that produces 152 horsepower, an increase of 4 horsepower over the previous generation's 148 horsepower. This enhancement aims to provide a more responsive driving experience without compromising fuel efficiency. The all-wheel-drive system, a hallmark of Subaru vehicles, remains standard across all 2027 Impreza trims, reinforcing the brand's commitment to all-weather capability and traction. Subaru has also made minor updates to the exterior and interior design, including new wheel designs and updated interior trim options, to keep the model fresh. The 2027 Impreza will be available in three trim levels: Base, Sport, and Sport-tech. The Sport trim will feature a starting MSRP of $24,995 and includes enhancements such as 18-inch alloy wheels, a sport-tuned suspension, and an upgraded infotainment system with an 11.6-inch touchscreen. The top-tier Sport-tech trim will begin at $27,995 and adds premium features like leather upholstery, a Harman Kardon audio system, and a power-adjustable driver's seat. All 2027 Impreza models will come standard with Subaru's EyeSight Driver Assist Technology, which includes features such as adaptive cruise control, pre-collision braking, and lane-keeping assist. The vehicle's dimensions remain largely unchanged, with the sedan measuring 176.2 inches in length and the hatchback measuring 175.8 inches in length, both featuring a 105.1-inch wheelbase. Cargo space in the hatchback variant is rated at 20.3 cubic feet with the rear seats up, expanding to 55.3 cubic feet when the seats are folded down. Subaru aims to attract both new buyers and loyal customers with this combination of affordability and improved performance, further solidifying the Impreza's position as a practical and capable compact car.
