Gas prices have been a hot topic lately, and we’re seeing a lot of people at our dealerships looking for fuel-efficient cars. We offer a number of fuel-sipping options, but I’d like to shine the spotlight on a vehicle that stands out from the rest – the 2012 Subaru Impreza available at Quirk Works Subaru in Braintree, Massachusetts.

Capable of returning up to 36 mpg on the highway, the Impreza is one of the most fuel-efficient all-wheel-drive vehicles on the market, and that makes it a great choice for Boston commuters looking for a capable winter vehicle. But don’t think of the Impreza as just an efficient small car, it also has some neat features that make it stand out from the pack – beyond the all-wheel-drive system of course.

All Impreza sedans and wagons are powered by an all-new 2.0-liter Boxer engine, a unique design that keeps the center of gravity low, which means surprising agility when you’re out cruising the back roads, heading to the beach or escaping to the mountains for the weekend.

The Impreza has room for all your stuff too, thanks to the available hatchback body style. With the back seats folded flat, the Impreza wagon can hold 52.4 cubic-feet of cargo. That’s a number usually reserved for crossovers, and it gives the Impreza great versatility. Whether you’re carrying bikes, groceries or helping a friend move, you’ll always have plenty of room.

Subaru did a great job when they redesigned the 2012 Impreza, creating a car that saves fuel, hauls cargo and was even named a Top Safety Pick by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. If you’re looking for the complete package, visit Quirk Works Subaru in Braintree and let one of our helpful sales staff members show you why the Impreza is the perfect ride for many Massachusetts motorists.
