What You Get
Sport is the least expensive way into a new Subaru โ and Subaru didn't strip it to get there. The safety, the AWD, and the big screen are all standard. Here's the honest picture.
The entry point that doesn't feel like one.
Adequate, not eager.
$26,595 starting MSRP โ your out-the-door number comes in writing before you set foot on a lot.
The Honest Ladder
There isn't one โ Sport is where the 2026 Impreza starts, and it's the least expensive new Subaru, period. The entry point already includes the things that matter: standard AWD, full EyeSight, and the 11.6-inch screen. Nothing here is a stripped-down teaser designed to walk you up the ladder.
RS at $29,495 โ $2,900 buys the 180-hp 2.5-liter, sportier suspension, and 18s. Be honest about your commute first: if the drive is A-to-B and the 152 hp only annoys you a few times a month, keep the $2,900. The RS earns its price when you actually like driving, not when the extra power rides around unused.
No pressure either way โ we make the same honest recommendation whether you spend $26,595 or $29,495.
Name, number, "Sport" โ or just "help me pick." We handle the rest.
