The Subaru Impreza comes in a hatchback in the States but costs quite a bit more than the Suzuki. Pete has a 2005 or 6 (?) that she adores with a ton of mileage on it. The 2012 has much better gas mileage so when repairs start outstripping car payments, she may go that way. I'd rather drive my Suzuki in the snow but she'd rather drive her Subaru. I think the Suzuki has a shorter wheelbase but I was a Jeep driver early in life so I'm very comfortable with it.
Make sure you take your hockey gear with you when you test drive to make sure it fits. We can put two fencing bags in the hatch. The rear seats fold down for cargo as well. If I take the front wheel off my mtn bike it fits in the cargo area.
