What Are the 2026 Subaru Impreza Trim Levels?
When you lease or finance a Subaru Impreza, you can choose between two trims: the Sport and the RS.

The RS takes things up a notch with heated front seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, wireless charging, cloth upholstery with red accents, and an optional Harman Kardon® audio system; great for motorists who want a little extra comfort and tech.
What Are the 2026 Subaru Impreza Performance Specs?
Under the hood, the 2026 Impreza models each have their own punch, and neither holds back. The Sport dishes out 152 horsepower and 145 pound-feet of torque from its 2.0-liter SUBARU BOXER four-cylinder, giving you peppy, confident output on daily commutes. Step up to the RS, and you get a heartier 2.5-liter four-cylinder that serves up a robust 180 horsepower and 178 pound-feet of torque for more thrill behind the wheel.
Both hatchbacks pair their engines with a smooth Lineartronic CVT, and while gas mileage varies slightly – EPA-estimated 27/33 MPG (City/Highway)2 for the Sport and EPA-estimated 26/33 MPG (City/Highway)2 for the RS – you still get efficiency without sacrificing fun.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Subaru Impreza only a hatchback now?
Since the 2024 model, the Subaru Impreza has been strictly a hatchback, leaving the sedan behind. Along with this change came a larger fuel tank, 16.6 gallons, up from 13.2. The 2026 Impreza continues this trend, providing a sportier, more versatile ride with extra cargo space, practicality, and longer range; perfect for navigating city streets or heading out on weekend escapes near Deerfield, IL.
Does every Subaru Impreza in Illinois come with AWD?
Yes! Every 2026 Subaru Impreza in Illinois and across the U.S. comes standard with the brand's Signature Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive. On top of that, you get Vehicle Dynamics Control, Traction Control, Active Torque Vectoring, and Subaru Intelligent Drive (SI-DRIVE), giving you assurance, control, and a seamless ride in virtually any driving condition with your five-door hatchback.
Is the ground clearance of the Subaru Impreza enough for unplowed side streets/alleys?
The 2026 Subaru Impreza offers 5.1 inches of ground clearance, which is plenty on typical winter roads, but unplowed alleys or heavy snow drifts still require caution. While you'll have the confidence of standard AWD, it's important to take it slow and drive carefully. In addition, keeping up with routine Subaru service like tire rotations, brake inspections, and seasonal tire swaps can make a big difference during Illinois winters.
