Reasons to Love WRX

A Standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive Sports Sedan with Tenacious Grip

You can trace the lineage of the WRX back through 19 rally championships in the U.S.. That legendary performance is based on the time- and race-tested traction of Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, delivering reliable grip on all kinds of surfaces and weather conditions. The Honda Civic Si, Volkswagen Golf GTI, Hyundai Elantra N, and Acura Integra don’t offer that kind of capability.

Thrilling Power and Precision Control

The Subaru WRX generates plenty of raw power on demand with its standard 2.4-liter direct-injection turbocharged SUBARU BOXER^® engine putting down 271 horsepower. That gives you more standard power than the Honda Civic Si, Volkswagen Golf GTI, or Acura Integra. The standard track-tuned suspension provides quick, responsive handling to dominate in the corners. Get even more control with the 2026 WRX tS, featuring electronically adjustable dampers tuned by Subaru Tecnica International.

A Smart Investment

With its advanced features, trusted safety, and all-wheel-drive performance, the WRX gives you incredible value as an all-weather daily driving sports sedan. The WRX is also one of the most affordable sport compacts on the market with a starting price of $32,495 — that’s less than the Hyundai Elantra N, Toyota GR Corolla, or Volkswagen Golf GTI. It’s an investment that will pay you back with years and years of exciting driving, because 96% of Subaru vehicles sold in the last 10 years are still on the road today, more than Honda or Toyota brands.
