A compact vehicle like the 2024 Subaru Impreza is a perfect option for drivers who prioritize urban maneuverability, fuel efficiency, and sporty handling. The 2024 Impreza is equipped with Subaru’s astounding safety features and AWD drivetrain, along with other awesome practical features that simplify your daily routine. 

Four Features That Make the 2024 Subaru Impreza a Standout Compact

1. Symmetrical AWD System

Most compact cars are equipped with a rear-wheel-drive or a front-wheel-drive drivetrain since these vehicles are designed for urban exploration. The Impreza stands out from the competition with Subaru’s sophisticated Symmetrical AWD system. This full-time AWD system prioritizes balance, stable handling, and reactive power distribution from the engine. 

Along with this responsive AWD system, the Impreza Base model is also equipped with a traction control system and a vehicle dynamics control system. The traction control system uses sensors to detect when wheels lose traction to automatically supply braking power to prevent slipping on the road. The vehicle dynamics control system offers braking and torque support to maintain the vehicle’s intended path. 

2. Fuel-Efficient Powertrain

The Base trim comes with a 2.0-liter engine that provides 152 horsepower and 145 lb-ft of torque. This powertrain is married to a Lineartronic CVT transmission with integrated Incline Start Assist that delays the disengagement of the brakes when the vehicle is on an incline to prevent the hatchback from rolling forward or backward. 

The model has an estimated fuel efficiency of 34 MPG on the freeway and 27 MPG in urban areas. This hatchback has a 16.6-gallon fuel tank capacity. City drivers can expect this vehicle to travel 448 urban miles on a full tank of gas.

3. Cargo Space and Seating

The Base model has a cargo volume of 20.4 cubic feet in the trunk area, which instantly increases to 56 cubic feet when the rear seats are folded down. This amount of cargo room is impressive for a compact car, since you can load pet carriers, large boxes, and big grocery hauls in the hatchback. The rear seat has a 40/60 folding capacity that allows you to fold half or all of the seats down. 

4. EyeSight Safety

Like all new Subaru vehicles, the Impreza Base is equipped with EyeSight safety technology. Key driver assist technology includes pre-collision braking and advanced adaptive cruise control, which works by matching the speed of your vehicle to the car ahead of you. This model also has a rear-vision camera so you can park and reverse confidently. 

Whether you’re a commuter or someone who lives in the city full-time, a hatchback like the 2024 Impreza is an ideal vehicle. Drop by Jim Keras Subaru in Memphis, TN to test drive this impressive compact car and discuss financing opportunities.
