Subaru decided not to make any significant changes to the current model because of the upcoming 2022 release of a completely redesigned WRX.

The Subaru WRX is a five-passenger compressed sports sedan scheduled for release in 2022. Its WRX lineup comes standard with all-wheel drive.

The new WRX is available in five different configurations from Subaru. Motorists on a tight budget looking for a fun-to-drive sports sedan should take a close look at the WRX STI. A 6.5-inch multitouch interface to smartphone integration as well as satellite radio is included as standard equipment. 

Additional standard equipment includes a cloth bucket seat. The WRX is powered by a 268 horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder engine coupled to a six-speed stick shift. If you’re looking for more features, the WRX Premium is an excellent option. Passengers would then appreciate its heated front seats whenever it gets cold outside. 

A 7.0-inch touch screen, a sunroof, as well as remote keyless entry round out the list of extras offered with this model. The WRX Premium, in contrast to the base model, comes with the option of an automatic transmission.

The interior of such leather-appointed WRX Restricted is superior. While the 9 Harman Kardon surround sound system will be appreciated by music lovers, the dynamic positioning system will be useful for road trips. Additionally, having the driver’s seat be power-adjustable improves the driving experience significantly.

The more powerful WRX STI model will appeal to drivers looking for more power. In addition to a 310-horsepower engine, this vehicle gets stronger brakes and a suspension tuned for the track. 

This model does not come standard with an automatic transmission. The WRX STI Restricted has the same powertrain as the standard STI, but it also comes equipped with Recaro racing seat backs as well as a Harman Kardon audio system.

The WRX can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph for 5.8 seconds with the base engine. Often these motorists will be satisfied with this speed. Others, on the other hand, will appreciate the added power of the STI model. It has a quicker 0-60 mph time, coming in at 5.1 seconds. 

With a more enjoyable driving experience, opt for the car’s six-speed gear system. When equipped with an automatic transmission, its WRX is more fuel-efficient.

The 2022 Subaru WRX maintains its superiority on the road. At any speed, this vehicle boasts a steady driving experience. The Subaru’s Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system proves to become a significant asset in adverse weather conditions. 

A full-time AWD system improves dry-weather cornering as well as traction on slick roads. The WRX’s only real flaw is its stout suspension, which makes it uncomfortable to drive on rough downtown streets.

The “boy racer” exterior styling of the Subaru WRX gives it a fast and powerful appearance. The WRX’s commanding presence is enhanced by its low stance. The car’s hood scoop not only looks intimidating but also helps keep the engine cool by increasing airflow. 

It comes standard with a 17-inch set of sport alloy wheels and a quad-outlet exhaust pipe. WR Blue Pearl, as well as Pure Red, are two eye-catching paint choices.

A high rear suspension and painted brake calipers are among the more combative upgrades discovered on the much more powerful STI designs. Trunk spoilers with a low-profile design are an option for purchasers.

A Starlink Interactive media infotainment system is included as standard equipment upon each innovative 2022 Subaru WRX. Although it may not be the fastest interface available, drivers appreciate the ease of use. 

Drivers can use the touchscreen display on their vehicle’s system after trying to connect their mobile. The Harman Kardon performance exhaust system is far superior to a basic stereo for music lovers. Meanwhile, the fully automated climate control system’s comfortable knobs allow drivers to quickly make adjustments.

The WRX can achieve up to 27 miles to the gallon when prepared with a manual transmission. If you go with an automatic, you’ll only get 24 mpg out of the car. The elevated WRX STI returns up to 22 mpg, making it the most fuel-hungry model inside the starting rotation. Subaru engineered both engines to run best on premium unleaded fuel.

Its 2022 Subaru WRX is the safest high-performance car you can buy. It passed all of the NHTSA’s major crash tests with flying colors, earning a perfect five-star rating for overall crash safety. 

Additionally, Subaru equips the WRX with EyeSight safety features like automatic front/rear braking and blind-spot monitoring. With the obtainable adaptive headlamps, your vision is improved when driving down a dark country road in the middle of nowhere.

While the WRX has its flaws, it’s still a highly sought-after sports sedan. This is a fun and eye-catching car to drive in any season. You should go for a test drive as soon as possible!
