Used 2024 Subaru Impreza for Sale nearRaleigh, NC

How much does the 2024 Subaru Impreza cost?

Prices have softened 2.10% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 1,395 listings available, which gives you a solid pool of inventory to compare.

Is the 2024 Subaru Impreza a good car?

Yes — the 2024 Subaru Impreza earns a 5/5 user rating and a 6.83/10 expert rating. The model scores 8/10 across Performance and Cost effectiveness.

The overview points to an affordable all-wheel-drive economy car that has been reworked to build on already strong credentials, and the expert review backs that up with a comfortable ride and smart features. That makes it a strong fit if you want everyday usefulness with a bit more capability and engagement than many affordable rivals.

One trade-off is that it is more of a refresh than a full redesign, so the changes may feel incremental if you were hoping for a bigger leap. Another is that the sportier RS is the focus of the expert review, so the most engaging version is not the cheapest one.

There are 35.9% of listings priced as good or great deals, which suggests you still have room to shop selectively.

Is the 2024 Subaru Impreza reliable?

Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The overview emphasizes standard all-wheel drive and practical usefulness, while the expert review highlights a comfortable ride and smart features that support easy day-to-day ownership. The performance notes also point to a quiet engine under light to moderate throttle and a ride that stays comfortable and stable over rough surfaces.

The cost-effectiveness notes reinforce the ownership story by showing that Subaru gives you standard all-wheel drive without pushing the price into a premium bracket. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is less about complexity and more about making sure the car you choose has been maintained and not worn down by hard use.

What should I look for when buying a used 2024 Subaru Impreza?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 86% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still run a history report on any car you’re considering, even if the listing looks clean. Prioritize a pre-purchase inspection so you can confirm the condition of the drivetrain, suspension, and interior wear. Focus especially on whether the car matches the trim and equipment level advertised, since the feature spread is meaningful on this model.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The Base model uses two 7-inch displays, while the Sport and RS trims get the larger 11.6-inch infotainment touchscreen. The RS also adds side skirts and red interior accents, so you can tell the trims apart by both equipment and appearance.
• Powertrain: The Base and Sport trims use a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with 152 horsepower and 145 pound-feet of torque, while the RS upgrades to a 2.5-liter engine with 182 hp and 178 lb-ft of torque. Both use a CVT, AWD is standard, and a manual transmission is not available.
• Safety package: All Imprezas come with EyeSight, which includes frontal collision warning with automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, lane-departure warning, and lane-centering. The Sport adds Starlink communications features, and the RS adds blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, lane-keep assist, and automatic emergency steering.
• Infotainment: Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard on all trims, and the Sport and RS add wireless connectivity. The Sport and RS also get the Starlink system with a Wi-Fi hotspot.
• Fuel efficiency: The base 2.0-liter engine is estimated at 27 mpg city, 34 mpg highway, and 30 mpg combined, while the RS is rated only 1 mpg less across the board.

Which 2024 Subaru Impreza trim should I buy?

The 2024 Subaru Impreza is offered in 3 trim levels: Base, Sport, RS.

Here's the short version:

• Base: This is the entry point, but it still gives you standard AWD and the core safety suite. It makes sense if you want the lowest-cost way into the model and can live with the smaller dual 7-inch displays.
• Sport: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds the larger 11.6-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, sportier handling, and a few more convenience and tech features.
• RS: This is the one to buy if you want the most power and the most complete equipment list. It gets the 2.5-liter engine, the sportiest character in the lineup, and extra safety tech like blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-keep assist, and automatic emergency steering.

All trims include the EyeSight driver-assist suite, so you’re covered on the core safety features even at the base level.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2024 Subaru Impreza?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile listings.

• Deal availability: 35.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 1,395 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 2.10% compared with last year.

What is the 2024 Subaru Impreza's resale value?

The current average of $23,015 sits slightly below last year's $23,508.

That price movement suggests the market has eased a bit, which can help you buy more confidently now. For a future seller, the softer trend means resale may not be as strong as it was a year ago, but the drop is modest rather than dramatic.

The Impreza’s standard all-wheel drive and broad usefulness should continue to support demand among shoppers who want practical, weather-ready transportation. Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2024 Subaru Impreza safe?

The 2024 Subaru Impreza has not yet received crash-test results from NHTSA or IIHS.

It earns a 6/10 safety score from our experts.

All 2024 Subaru Imprezas come with the EyeSight driver assist suite, which includes frontal collision warning with automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, lane-departure warning, and lane-centering. The Sport adds Starlink communications features with automatic collision notification, enhanced roadside assistance, and an SOS button, while the RS adds blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, lane-keep assist, and automatic emergency steering.

Should I buy a 2024 Subaru Impreza or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2024 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2024 if:

• 35.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 86% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 2.10% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The revived RS trim adds more power and driver excitement while keeping the model’s practical all-wheel-drive character.

The bottom line: If you want the strongest mix of value, traction, and everyday usability, the 2024 is the one to target. If you’re especially price-sensitive, you can still shop the market carefully and look for a listing near the low end of the range, but the 2024 already gives you a compelling balance of equipment and pricing.
