Product Overview
Subaru Impreza 5 (code GK) is an affordable mid-size sedan in production since 2016. It is available with a range of flat-4 engine that displaces 1.6L to 2.0L.
Unlike earlier Imprezas, the Impreza 5 has completely shed any sporting pretense. Instead, it now caters to those who do not care for driving. New is a hybrid option, while the automatic model still uses a CVT. The 6-speed manual transmission is missing, with only a 5-speed being offered.

Reviewer score 41%, consists of MacPherson struts up front and a double wishbone arrangement at the rear. There’s plenty of space on offer, and you get the impression the materials used here will stand up to a fair amount of rough and tumble. At £25,560, the Impreza is expensive, too. Sure, you get heated seats, dual-zone automatic air conditioning, DAB radio and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, but for similar money you could have a Volkswagen Golf GT.

Pros
- Solid build quality
- Decent on-road performance
- Comfortable to drive
Cons
- Poor fuel economy
- Not particularly refined

Reviewer score 57%The fifth generation Subaru Impreza represents a huge improvement over the last car. It offers more space inside, a better cabin and surprisingly good road manners. The excellent EyeSight pre-collision driver assist system is fitted as standard, which contributes to a maximum five-star safety rating. There's only one trim level available in the UK, with the SE model loaded with standard kit.

Pros
- More spacious cabin
- Excellent safety credentials
- Decent infotainment system
Cons
- Only one trim level available in the UK

Reviewer score 50%There are no turbos, just 104bhp and it takes 13.7sec to get to 62mph. Four-wheel drive naturally, with a lever to switch between high and low ratios. Climate control, a CD player, four electric windows, alloy wheels and a brace of airbags.

Pros
- Fantastic four-wheel drive
- Comfortable to drive
Cons
- Lack of grunt
- Not very fun to drive
carmagazine[4]
Reviewer score 63%Despite being stiffened and lowered compared with its predecessor this latest model isn't that fun to drive, and, on a winding country road you could probably have more fun in a Ford Focus. There's bags of grip on offer from the standard all-wheel drive system and the Impreza's off-roading credentials are second-to-none. Creature comforts such as heated front seats, dual-zone climate control, keyless entry/keyless go and cruise control are all included.

Pros
- Class-leading safety and driver assist tech
- Comfortable to drive
Cons
- No turbocharged engine
- Cheap to run
