New 2026 Subaru Impreza in Scarborough, ON
Capable character
The 2026 Subaru Impreza proves that practicality and driving enjoyment can coexist comfortably. Built around Subaru’s signature model of symmetrical all-wheel drive and low centre of gravity, it feels secure, balanced, and composed on most surfaces. The refined ride, sharp steering, and unique character make it a natural fit for urban driving and open roads. The exterior styling of the Subaru Impreza has undergone significant changes over the years, but the Subaru Impreza has consistently adhered to its core principles. The 2026 Subaru Impreza is no exception, and it’s the most stylish incarnation to date.
Trim levels
The 2026 Subaru Impreza lineup offers three trim levels: the entry-level Convenience, the mid-range Touring, and the top-of-the-line RS. Each offers Subaru’s hallmark five-door versatility, clean proportions, and a confident stance. The Touring upgrades from the base specification 16-inch wheels to a set of 17-inch gloss black alloys. The range-topping RS model features striking 18-inch black-finish alloys, RS badging, and dark exterior mirrors, all contributing to a sportier appearance. LED steering-responsive headlights with High Beam Assist are standard across the lineup. A power sunroof, rear spoiler, and gloss-black grille accents are featured on upper trims. Colour choices include Pure Red, Sapphire Blue Pearl, Citrus Yellow Pearl, and Crystal White Pearl, giving the Subaru Impreza personality to match its confident character.
Performance
All versions of the 2026 Subaru Impreza feature the standard Symmetrical Full-Time AWD system and low-mounted BOXER engine combination. The Convenience and Touring trims use a 2.0-litre direct-injection version of the engine that produces 152 horsepower and 145 lb.-ft. of torque, paired with a Lineartronic CVT. The RS trim gains a 2.5-litre version of the Subaru engine, which then provides the Subaru Impreza with 182 horsepower and 178 lb.-ft. A selectable manual mode with steering-wheel paddles allows the driver to hold simulated gear ratios while climbing, overtaking, or simply enjoying the route. Active Torque Vectoring subtly brakes the inner wheel in turns for added precision, while Hill Start Assist prevents the vehicle from rolling back on inclines. Fully independent suspension with MacPherson-type struts up front and a double-wishbone rear keeps the ride firm but compliant. Fuel economy is rated at 8.8 L/100 km in the city and 6.9 L/100 km on the highway for 2.0-litre models. Fuel economy ratings for the 2.5-litre engine are 9.0 L/100 km in the city and 7.2 L/100 km on the highway. The result is a compact car that feels secure, agile, and genuinely engaging to drive.
Features and technology
Everything is positioned naturally inside the Subaru Impreza, from the broad climate-control dials to the clear driver display. Generous glass areas and thin pillars make the cabin bright and easy to see out of. The Convenience trim features cloth upholstery, but all models come standard with heated front seats. Touring and RS trims add dual-zone climate control, a heated steering wheel, premium cloth upholstery, and a 10-way power driver’s seat with lumbar adjustment. Red stitching and aluminum pedals give the RS a sportier edge, while clever storage compartments and wide-opening doors highlight everyday usability. The Convenience trim features a 7.0-inch infotainment touch-screen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Touring and RS models upgrade to an 11.6-inch tablet-style system with wireless connectivity and optional navigation using Subaru Live Traffic and What3words integration. USB-A and USB-C ports are located on the front and rear, along with a wireless phone charger, to keep devices powered. The RS trim’s 10-speaker Harman Kardon system delivers clear, rich sound. MySubaru Connected Services provides remote engine start, door lock control, and vehicle locator functions. EyeSight driver-assist technology with adaptive cruise control, lane centring, and pre-collision braking is standard. RS models also include Blind Spot Detection, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, and Reverse Automatic Braking for extra assurance.
