2004 4dr Wagon 165-horsepower 2.5L H4

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

2006 4dr Sedan turbocharged 300hp 2.5L H4
6-speed manual AWD
Not a gas guzzler, but not a gas sipper either. Aggressive driving = poor fuel mileage see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review

16/22 MPG City/Highway...ouch. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
2004 4dr Wagon 165-horsepower 2.5L H4
5-speed manual AWD
Unless you are kind and watch the RPM/gear ratios, the Single Overhead cam engine is not miserly. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
2004 4dr Wagon turbocharged 227hp 2.0L H4
5-speed manual AWD
If you hammer the throttle a lot, do not expect great mpg numbers. This is common sense really, not something I dislike, just something to note. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
2004 4dr Sedan turbocharged 227hp 2.0L H4
4-speed automatic AWD
Expect 20-24 mpg depending on how you drive. One does not buy an AWD turbo Subaru with fuel economy in mind. These cars were meant to be driven in a spirited manner. Keep in mind vehicle is required to be used with premium fuel. see full Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport review
