Handling and Fuel Efficiency
One similarity between the Subaru WRX and Outback and Forester is Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive. This standard drivetrain helps the compact car obtain a greater grip on dry, wet, or even snowy pavement. Under the hood of the Subaru WRX is the turbo SUBARU BOXER® engine that delivers a near-equal combination of 258 pound-feet of torque and 268 horsepower. If you choose the even sportier WRX STI or STI Limited, you'll have the upgraded 310-horsepower 2.5-liter turbo engine with 290 pound-feet of torque.
Other Subaru performance features that push the boundaries of WRX performance are quick-ratio steering and a track-tuned suspension. Vehicle Dynamics Control with Active Torque Vectoring makes taking sharp corners effortless rather than nerve-wracking. For longer trips between Springfield and Decatur via I-72 W, you can rely on the 27 mpg of highway fuel economy achieved by the Subaru WRX.

Technology and Amenities
As a compact car, the Subaru WRX only seats five but also includes a versatile trunk space of 12.0 cubic-feet. If you want to fold down the 60/40-split seatback to load hiking gear, picnic supplies, or luggage, you have that flexibility. You can go one step further and personalize the look of your future 2020 Subaru WRX with fantastic amenities like:
- Heated front seats
- 10-way power-adjustable driver seat
- Leather-wrapped steering wheel
- Power tilt-and-slide moonroof
- Heated side mirrors
- LED fog lights
- Leather-trimmed upholstery
- Keyless access with push-button start
- Dual-zone climate control
When it comes to technology inside the Subaru WRX, it centers on SUBARU STARLINK® Multimedia. This intuitive infotainment system features a 6.5-inch or 7-inch touchscreen display that syncs up with Android Auto™ or Apple CarPlay® integration. You can stick with the base six-speaker sound system or upgrade to Harman Kardon® Premium Audio with nine speakers. You and your front-seat guest can also take advantage of the dual USB ports inside the Subaru WRX cabin.
