Subaru Impreza
The Impreza family includes sedan and five-door hatchback versions and, in both cases, the available engine is a four-cylinder boxer. This 2.0L produces 148 horsepower and comes factory-standard with a five-speed manual gearbox. And because it’s a Subaru, all-wheel drive is a given. From the 2.0i base trim to the Limited, there’s something for everyone.
