Not to be confused with the top-dog WRX STI, the WRX STI Sport is basically the WRX (WRX S4 in Japan) fitted with all sorts of new handling and cosmetic goodies.

5 Thoughts on the 2020 Subaru WRX


The Subaru WRX has been a choice for the brand’s long-time fans. But with a turbocharged engine and the iconic hood scoop, it’s also easily recognized even by the most casual of motorists who’ve come to know what those three letters—W-R-X—stand for. Having been a fan of the Levorg for years, I finally had the opportunity to try out the very platform that it was based off of. First, it was refreshing to finally be driving a sedan again. Secondly, my conversations with die-hard Suabru fans had instilled the impression that the WRX was a force to push.

Subaru's Saving the Manuals with the 2019 BRZ and 2019 WRX and We Drive Them Both


Name a performance car nowadays, and chances are, it’ll come with an automatic transmission. Whether it’s because carmakers will claim that a slush box will provide the same amount of performance minus the hassle of operating a third pedal, or increased market demand (bean counters will say: who buys manuals nowadays), this has become a fact of life—like how the sun rises in the east, sets in the west, and the new Supra’s basically a Z4 underneath. Thankfully, there’s still one brand that’s flying the Save the Manuals flag locally, and that brand is Subaru.

With a replacement due in about a year or two, it’s no longer the segment’s young gun, but rather, it’s now the elder statesman. Has Father Time been kind to the latest iteration of the World Rally eXperiment?
