    2022 Model Redesign Year
    The WRX features a 271-hp, 2.4-liter turbo flat-four engine, with a choice of a six-speed manual or a continuously variable transmission. The car pulls strongly, and the manual shifter and clutch are more forgiving than before. Handling is agile, and the car has tenacious tire grip in corners. But the ride is very stiff, and the cabin gets quite loud because of elevated levels of road and engine noise. Most controls are logically placed and easy to use, but many of the climate functions integrated into the slow-responding infotainment touchscreen require multiple steps. A new performance-oriented tS version brings electronically controlled STI-tuned dampers with a drive mode selector, a full LCD digital gauge cluster, upgraded brakes, race-style front seats, and 19-inch wheels.
    BSW and RCTW are still optional. For 2025 the DriverFocus Distraction Mitigation System is standard.

    2017-2021

    2017 Model Redesign Year
    With its blistering acceleration and tenacious cornering grip, the WRX is built for the enthusiast driver. A six-speed manual is standard, but a CVT is offered. Power is abundant and handling is nimble, but the ride is very stiff and choppy, and the stiff-feeling shifter and abrupt clutch engagement make the WRX frustrating as a daily driver. The higher-performance WRX STi has transmission and suspension differences along with a stronger 305-hp engine. Subaru's EyeSight safety system, including FCW and AEB, is optional.

    2015 Model Redesign Year
    With its blistering acceleration and tenacious cornering grip, the WRX is built for the enthusiast driver. A six-speed manual is standard, but a CVT is offered. Power is abundant and handling is nimble, but the ride is very stiff and choppy, and the stiff-feeling shifter and abrupt clutch engagement make the WRX frustrating as a daily driver. The higher-performance WRX STi has transmission and suspension differences along with a stronger 305-hp engine. New for 2016 is Subaru's Eyesight assistance package, which includes lane-keep assist, pre-collision braking, and lane-departure warning. Blind-spot detection and rear cross-traffic alert are also available.
    The hatchback is no longer available.
