Where are 2024 Subaru Imprezas built?

The 2024 Subaru Impreza sold in the United States is assembled in Lafayette, Indiana, at Subaru of Indiana Automotive (SIA). Globally, Impreza production is split between the U.S. plant and Subaru’s Japanese facilities in Gunma, with domestic and export units depending on market demand.


Regional production footprint


Subaru operates two main hubs for Impreza manufacturing to meet regional demand. The following overview explains where most 2024 Imprezas are assembled for major markets.



  • United States — Subaru of Indiana Automotive (SIA) in Lafayette, Indiana. Imprezas for the North American market are produced here.

  • Japan and other markets — Subaru's plants in Japan, primarily in Gunma Prefecture, handle production for domestic and some international markets.


Both sites contribute to the overall supply of Imprezas, with the U.S. plant focusing on the North American lineup and Japanese production covering domestic demand and selected exports.


United States market


The U.S.-spec 2024 Impreza line is built at SIA in Indiana. This facility has produced Impreza models for North America for several model cycles, providing local supply and reducing import dependency.


Japan and other markets


In Japan and other regions, Subaru maintains production capacity at its Japanese plants in Gunma, which continues to assemble Impreza units for domestic customers and some export markets. The exact distribution varies by year and regional demand.


Model year context


For 2024, Subaru kept the Impreza largely unchanged in its core design and features, while continuing its regionalized production strategy. The configuration of assembly sites remains aligned with market needs rather than a single global plant.


What this means for buyers


If you’re shopping for a 2024 Impreza in the United States, expect it to be assembled in Lafayette, Indiana. If you’re purchasing outside the U.S., check the window sticker for the country of origin, which will indicate the assembly location for that unit.


Summary


Bottom line: The 2024 Subaru Impreza sold in the U.S. is manufactured at Subaru of Indiana Automotive in Lafayette, Indiana. Globally, Imprezas are produced at Subaru’s plants in Japan to meet regional demand, reflecting the brand’s approach to localized manufacturing.
