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 over 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*.
Reasons to Love WRX
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 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.
Reasons to Love WRX
Safety, Technology, and Everyday Sports Sedan Flexibility
With its spacious, versatile interior, AWD traction, and advanced safety technology, the WRX is a high-performance sports sedan that's easy to love all week long and all year round — not just on track weekends or summer road trips. Plus, you get confidence on every drive with standard EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology with automatic Pre-Collision Braking*. The 2026 Subaru WRX earned top marks with a 5-Star Overall Vehicle Score from NHTSA*, and Subaru is rated #1 in safety for six years running*, #1 in product quality for five years running*, and #1 in loyalty for two years running, according to ACSI*.
Reasons to Love WRX
A Smart Investment
With its advanced features, trusted safety, and all-weather performance, the WRX gives you incredible value as a daily driving sports sedan. With a starting price under $34,000, the WRX is also one of the most affordable AWD sports sedans on the market. 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*.
Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive for Tenacious Grip
One of the core performance features of the WRX has always been Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive. A balanced, time-tested design refined through decades of rally experience, it creates uniform stability and delivers an optimal distribution of power for maximum traction on all types of surfaces. It's the all-wheel-drive sports sedan that can handle everything from the track to the street to your favorite stretch of twisty dirt road.

The WRX GT and WRX tS let you customize ride and handling at the touch of a button with their electronically adjustable dampers.
Rally and Motorsport DNA
D-Shaped Steering Wheel and Quick-Ratio Dual-Pinion Steering
Every part of the WRX cockpit is designed for comfortable, confident high-performance driving, and the D-shaped steering wheel is its centerpiece. With its excellent weight and feel, it gives you ergonomic control and near-instant response from the lightning-quick 13.5:1-ratio dual-pinion steering.
