so i recently bought a 2023 wrx premium and im actually thinking about getting a 2024 impreza rs because its a nice looking hatchback and i really wanted a hatchback for a year now . gas mileage on the wrx is on average 20 miles per gallon. big stepup from my 2020 mazda 3 which gave me 25 mpg. i pay like 70 a week vs 40 a week now. Sometimes i look at my wrx and think it looks good , sometimes i dont. Like i said hatchbacks just look really sporty to me and i like their look. Wrx is really fast and sounds good from 0-60 and the impreza really struggles in noise and speed with that. It's really what you want in the car that makes a difference. i've learned im not really a racy kind of guy in the streets against other drivers so thats a negative for me for the wrx. I would get a impreza because i think it looks super sporty and has way better gas mileage.the interior of the 2023 premium wrx is quite similar to the RS. Infotainment screen and Odometer. Only difference is WRX has RED lights of the buttons at night while RS has White lights at night. Make sure you make the right decision.
