TECHNOLOGY

Subaru Core Technology
The unique driving feel you can find only in a Subaru.

The power to escape limits. The control to shape possibility.

Exhilarating agility. Breathtaking performance. If it were any more fun, you’d have to charge admission.

The power to escape limits.
The control to shape possibility.

Exhilarating agility. Breathtaking performance. If it were any more fun, you’d have to charge admission.

Power defines it. You control it.

Whilst the 2.5-litre turbocharged SUBARU BOXER engine generating 221 kW and 407 Nm of torque provides electrifying acceleration, driving performance isn't just about numbers. That's why the WRX STI was revamped to enhance overall driving feel. Its exceptional handling, made possible by a combination of the improved 6-speed manual transmission and Multi-mode Driver Controlled Centre Differential (DCCD), provides optimum differential control even on snowy roads. And combined with the stopping power from its Brembo* brakes and cross-drilled rotors, the WRX STI is more communicative, more responsive, and more exciting to drive in many situations.

Active Torque Vectoring

This technology helps make handling more precise, whilst allowing you to push your vehicle closer to the limit. As you enter a corner and lateral g-forces take hold, the system can route power to select wheels to help you keep your intended line. This means your WRX or WRX STI responds to your steering input more immediately and more engagingly.

SAFETY

The confidence you need to seek the excitement you desire.

SRS* Airbags

The WRX offers front SRS* airbags, front-side and curtain SRS* airbags, and a knee SRS* airbag that helps protect the driver’s lower extremities.

Cabin-Protecting Layout

Every Subaru goes above and beyond common practice when it comes to your safety. In the event of a head-on collision, your WRX's SUBARU BOXER engine and gearbox are designed to avoid rushing into the cabin for your protection.
