I used to have a 2015 Impreza hatch (same car as the Crosstrek, w/o the off-road aesthetic body cladding and a bit closer to the ground), and a 2015 Forester at the same time. The Impreza did not impress me at all, even though it was a much higher trim level. When it came time to cut back and sell one of our vehicles it was the Impreza that we said goodbye to and kept the Forester — we love our Forester.
