Reviews SummaryIf you’re looking for a sensible, all-wheel drive car, there are plenty of crossovers out there. But if a sedan or hatchback is more to your liking, the all-new 2017 Subaru Impreza is one of your only choices. It’s also a great car. But chances are that you already know that. After all, Subaru has one of the highest owner loyalty rates of any vehicle brand. If you’re buying an Impreza, it probably isn’t your first Subaru—and it likely won’t be your last. While the Impreza isn’t as refined as it could be, it is affordable, safe, and practical. And that’s why we think it will please both longtime Subaru fans and new owners alike. | |
Reviews SummaryThe 2016 Dodge Dart is the king (or queen) of big compacts with a large exterior that rivals that of some midsize sedans. With a lot of metal to haul around, the Dart may not be the quickest in its segment, but an ultra-frugal optional engine at least helps keep mileage competitive. This may be the last year for the current Dart before a badly needed update, which should help it pick up some of the style points that it's lost to competitors such as Honda and Hyundai. | |
