All the fun the laws of physics allows.

The WRX® and WRX STI® are engineered to give drivers the perfect balance of raw power and precision steering. Each has been fine-tuned with decades of motorsport experience to be the best-handling WRX and WRX STI yet.

Confident Grip for Precise Cornering

Track-Tuned Suspension

The high-performance track-tuned suspension on the WRX features aggressive spring and damper rates, large front and rear anti-roll bars, and wide summer tires for tremendous grip and control. The double-wishbone rear suspension with pillow ball bushings enables flat cornering while the rigid unibody with reinforced suspension mounting points creates the ideal platform for the best-handling WRX ever.

Standard on: All WRX models

Vehicle Dynamics Control with Active Torque Vectoring

Vehicle Dynamics Control (VDC) with Active Torque Vectoring sharpens cornering response for tighter lines through every turn. It actively reduces understeer so the apex of every corner is just an easy turn of the wheel away.

Quick-Ratio Steering and Aluminum Front Lower Control Arms

Electric power steering with a quick 14.4:1 ratio creates a sharp turn-in and excellent on-center feel. Aluminum front lower control arms reduce unsprung weight and pivot on pillow ball bushings for almost-instantaneous response.

Standard on: All WRX models

Harman Kardon® Premium Audio

Your soundtrack should match your vehicle’s performance. That’s why the WRX features a Harman Kardon premium audio system that captures detail-rich acoustics through enhanced sound control and superior high sound output. At the heart of the system lies a high-performance 9-channel, class-D amplifier pumping out 440 equivalent watts of power. The amplifier works to efficiently distribute clean audio signals to the vehicle’s 9-speaker sound system ¬– including a subwoofer. Harman’s Clari-Fi™ Technology restores and corrects audio fidelity, resulting in musical reproduction that sounds clearer, crisper, and more dynamic.
