Subaru Impreza WRX Review

Running Costs2 out of 5

If you're buying a hardcore all-wheel drive rally replica, you'll have low expectations for fuel consumption.

The STi doesn't break the mould, averaging 27.4mpg and polluting to the tune of a hefty 243g/km of carbon dioxide. This means the top VED Band G for road tax and the maximum 35% BIK company car tax obligation.
