2013 4dr Sedan 148-horsepower 2.0L H4
5-speed manual AWD
Wow, this is what I said after 2 days with the vehicle, winter driving, and its cold winter here. I averaged 7.6 l/100km, mixed city and highway driving, at -20 celsius, through snow most time of these 2 days. Very impressive for awd vehicle! see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
2013 4dr Hatch 148-horsepower 2.0L H4
6-speed shiftable CVT AWD
It takes a while for the engine & drivetrain to break in, but when they do you will start to see some very impressive numbers on the ODO. I'm at ~2600 miles right now and averaging 29-30 mpg between 50% open freeway cruising, 25% freeway traffic, 25% city driving. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review

I have gotten 28mpg on the highway, which makes it perfect for road trips. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
2004 4dr Wagon 165-horsepower 2.5L H4
4-speed automatic AWD
I get 23-26mpg around town, 28-30 highway, which I consider very very good for an AWD car. I get same fuel economy as many non AWD cars. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review

2012 4dr Hatch 148-horsepower 2.0L H4
CVT AWD
The fuel economy isn't as high expected. I get about 28 mpg. I should probably stop driving like I stole it when the kids are out of the car. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
2010 4dr Sedan turbocharged 265hp 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD
Not really dislike, I didnt expect civic like mpg. Around town mileage suffers, but on the highways the car cruises quite easily. You can expect ~25mpg on average combined (with no led food). Impressive for the hp and AWD. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
2010 4dr Hatch 170-horsepower 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD
Really crappy, especially for a 2.5L 4 cylinder engine. 22 MPG average. 18 city, 27 highway is what I got. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
2009 4dr Hatch 170-horsepower 2.5L H4

low fuel economy because of AWD components see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review

The WRX did not get the kind of mileage our family was looking for in a new vehicle. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review

Pathetic for a compact sedan at <28 mpg highway. The AWD system must be a huge fuel sink. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
2008 4dr Hatch 170-horsepower 2.5L H4
4-speed shiftable automatic AWD
For such a small car with NA 170hp engine the economy is rather poor ~24mpg. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
2007 4dr Wagon turbocharged 224hp 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD
For a car of that size, the fuel economy is dismal. I get about 19 in the city, which is where most of my driving is done. That is marginally better than any SUV. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
