The Subaru Impreza is a fun compact car that's both efficient and stylish. With that combination, it's a great choice for students and commuters in Parsippany, Wayne, and Morristown, NJ. Is it the right car for you, though?
To show drivers in the tri-state area what it can do, Paul Miller Subaru looked at what it has to offer in this 2021 Subaru Impreza review.
2021 Subaru Impreza Efficient Performance
The 2021 Subaru Impreza is prepared to help you make fewer stops for gas. It runs on a sporty 2.0L 4-cylinder SUBARU BOXER® engine that gets up to 152 horsepower and 145 lb-ft of torque. This lively powertrain gets good gas mileage, too, with an EPA-estimated 28 city/36 highway MPG.
You'll have total control over your drive with a 5-speed manual transmission. A Lineartonic® Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) is also available to manage your drive and deliver quick, precise shifting. The CVT also gives you the option to shift manually with 7-speed manual mode.
Those seeking more traction control on the roadways in New Jersey will appreciate the standard inclusion of Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive. This all-wheel drive capability is included to withstand slick and uneven conditions, like rainstorms, a snowy route to work, or even rocky, dirty terrain off the beaten path.
Not only does the all-wheel drive feature allow for maximum traction, it also makes for improved handling-including a more rapid response to any sort of road conditions. As a result, the aforementioned fuel efficiency thrives without missing a beat thanks to this easy-to-use drivetrain.
Choose from a Variety of 2021 Impreza Models
You have more than one option to choose from when selecting a 2021 Subaru Impreza that matches your personality. There are four sedan trim options to choose from as well as four hatchback options to choose from. Each of these models offer differences in things like interior conveniences, exterior options, and other amenities.
Both the Limited trims available in the sedan and hatchback are at the top of their Subaru class. For example, their Lineartronic® transmission is upgraded to include a 7-speed manual mode-an added benefit for those who like the option of choosing different driving modes.
Regardless of the trim option you choose, you'll have several color options inside and out to choose from. Crimson Red Pearl, Magnetite Gray Metallic, and Ocean Blue Pearl are just three of the choices on the outside.
Meanwhile, there are plenty of tire selections as well. The all-season tires are ideal for those looking for versatility, while the 18-inch aluminum-alloy wheels are an equally great fit for city or town driving. You're in good hands either way.
2021 Subaru Impreza Interior Options
The interior of the 2021 Subaru Impreza feels like the cockpit of a sports car. It offers aluminum-alloy pedals, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and upholstery options like sport cloth and leather. You'll also be able to kick back and relax in a power-adjustable driver's seat. You can even brighten up your drive and give your passengers a nice view with a panoramic moonroof.

The Impreza is available in two styles, a compact car and a convenient hatchback. They both include space to stretch your legs and comfortable seating for five. The sedan features a nice-sized trunk that can help you bring groceries home, while the hatchback's rounded cargo area and folding seats can help you pack more.
 | Impreza Sedan | Impreza Hatchback |
Passenger Room | 99.8 cu. ft. | 100.9 cu. ft. |
Headroom (Front/Rear) | 39.8 /37.2 in. | 39.8/38 in. |
Legroom (Front/Rear) | 43.1 /36.5 in. | 43.1/36.5 in. |
Cargo Room | 12.3 cu. ft. | 55.3/20.8 cu. ft. |
No matter which Impreza you want to drive, you'll be able to stream your favorite music. The dashboard touchscreen comes with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, so you can sync your smartphone and even make hands-free calls while you drive.
Why not pair an ear-pleasing experience with your drive? The optional premium Harman Kardon® sound system comes with 8 speakers packed to the brim with 432-watts of pure, unadulterated music-boosting tech sure to amp your drive in the best of ways.
Oh, and we can't forget the inclusion of 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot. You may need it for yourself, or maybe for one of your passengers, but you'll always stay connected. It's no secret our world is always online nowadays, and what better way to keep that trend going than by providing an internet connection on the fly?
2021 Subaru Impreza Safety & Capability
While it may look like a compact car, the 2021 Subaru Impreza is just as capable as an SUV. With standard Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, it'll keep you in control and help you maintain traction on snowy or slick roads.
To make sure you have both a safe and stable drive, the Impreza comes with many safety features. It provides seven airbags, including side curtain airbags that cover both rows of seats. Plus, to help prevent accidents, there's EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology. It gives you more awareness with the following features:
- Pre-Collision Braking
- Pre-Collision Throttle Management
- Adaptive Cruise Control
- Lane Departure and Sway Warning with Lane Keep Assist
While EyeSight® watches what's around you during your drive, the Rear-Vision Camera gives you more visibility while you're backing up. The available Blind-Spot Detection with Lane Change Assist and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert is another helpful addition worth considering due to its eagle eye while you're in any sort of traffic-whether it's on your street or on the highway.
