Half of every Impreza on the road is below this. Power divided by mass in running order — the one figure that compares across model and era.
There are 3,184 of them on Dutch roads, built between 1994 and 2018, weighing anywhere from 1,175 to 1,580 kg. They share a name and not much else. Here is the spread.
Half of every Impreza on the road is below this. Power divided by mass in running order — the one figure that compares across model and era.
A typical Impreza has more power per tonne than 97% of the 8,248,168 combustion cars in the Netherlands.
For the median version, from power, mass and body shape. A prediction, not a measurement.
The slowest in this sample makes 50.1 kW per tonne and the quickest 157.9 — a factor of 3.2 between two cars wearing the same badge. Any single number for a Impreza is an average over that.

Asking the server…
Everything above describes 3,184 cars sharing a name, spanning 1994 to 2018 and 1,175–1,580 kg. Your Impreza has one engine, one mass and one registration. Put the plate in and the answer is about that car rather than about the name on it.
