The 2017 Subaru Impreza goes on sale before the end of the year and will only come in $100 more expensive than last year. The base model with the manual will sticker for $19,215. The CVT adds $1,000. The most expensive 2.0i Limited starts at $25,415. Both prices include destination.

The four- and five-door Imprezas ride on Subaru’s new global platform and all will work with a 2.0-liter boxer-four making 152 hp vs. 148 hp for the last model and get 38 mpg on the highway with a continuously variable transmission. Subaru’s CVT is better than most, and this Impreza gets paddle shifters to better control it. Five-speed manual models go on sale early in 2017.

The Impreza will arrive with four trim levels: 2.0i, 2.0i Premium, 2.0i Sport and 2.0i Limited. The base model has a good selection of standard features including Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, power locks, mirrors and windows, split-folding rear seats and the like.

The Premium trim adds bigger wheels, Subaru’s Starlink safety features, heated front seats and automatic headlights. The Sport gets 18-inch wheels, exclusive suspension tuning and torque vectoring, along with black body accents, LED daytime running lights and turn-signal side mirrors. Inside, the Sport gets an 8-inch multimedia system, accenting stitching, keyless start and a few other bits.

Finally, we have the Limited trim. It gets a different set of daytime running LEDs, 17-inch wheels and more chrome on the outside. In the cabin, buyers will be treated to contrasting stitching, a power driver’s seat, automatic climate control and a different gauge cluster.

Navigation by TomTom and Subaru’s EyeSight safety features are both optional. With all the options checked, you’re looking at a price of around $30,000.

We'll get more news of the hi-po WRX and STI models soon.
