Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive is standard, giving Subaru's sports sedan tenacious grip that rivals can't equal. Get even power distribution and have confidence rounding every Harrison County corner outside Clarksburg with Active Torque Vectoring in the WRX, which features Vehicle Dynamics Control and is rated for 26 highway miles per gallon on I-79.

The new Subaru WRX works with a 271-horsepower 2.4-liter turbocharged direct-injection BOXER® engine and an electronic wastegate providing near-instant boost from 258 pound-feet of torque. A 6-speed manual transmission is standard, and paddle shifters come with the Subaru Performance Transmission, delivering 50 percent faster downshifts and 30 percent faster upshifts. A standard track-tuned suspension gives the Subaru WRX its razor-sharp precision handling you can feel as you round corners beyond the Bridgeport city limits.

Inside, the driver-centric Subaru WRX has a D-shaped steering wheel featuring 13.5:1-ratio dual-pinion steering for fast response. The 12.5 cubic-foot trunk is roomy for the compact sedan class.
