Subaru WRX at Royal Subaru near Bedford

If you're like many of us here at Royal Subaru, then you dreamed as a child of growing up to be a race car driver. And while that may not have become your career in adulthood, you've never lost your zeal for thrilling driving experiences. But while you can't purchase a race car without a couple million dollars and some serious sponsorships, you can get the next best thing when you shop with us. Yes, that's right folks, we're talking about the Subaru WRX. This stylish sport sedan blurs the line between rally car and everyday driver, giving you that boost of acceleration and adrenaline when you want it, and comfort and drivability when you need it. And with five distinctive Subaru WRX trims available for sale at our Bloomington, IN dealership, it's only too easy to take this performance iconic and make it your own.

What's New?

Subaru WRX is no stranger to performance upgrades designed to adrenalize its thrill-ride while delivering the apex in safety, entertainment, and connectivity.

Behind a front-end design updated for the new model year with a lean, aggressive look, and under thicker glass, seals, and insulation to deliver drive-time peace, you'll find the WRX a model of the kind of handling for which "sporty" is an understatement. The performer's 4-wheel independent suspension tuning, revised across its two available sport and one available high-performance STI iterations, makes for quite the driving blast. New steering tuning's athletic to match, thanks to trim-dependent quick-ratio standard and electric power-assisted rack-and-pinion choices.

Safety

The new Subaru WRX also adds a host of features to its EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology package, now including adaptive cruise control for safe distancing, pre-collision braking to help prevent accidents, and lane departure and sway warning functions to make it a breeze to stay on track. Plus, for the agility aficionado, Subaru WRX now offers a Performance package option for its WRX Premium trim, complete with features to appeal to one's inner Formula 1 driver, from Recaro® performance-design front seats to striking red-finished brake calipers flanked by Jurid® high-performance brake pads.

Technology

But no speedster experience would be complete without myriad controls at one's fingertips. To that end, the new WRX showcases an available SUBARU STARLINK 7-inch Multimedia Plus system with a high-resolution LCD touchscreen. Voice-activated controls make on-the-fly access a matter of course, while an HD Radio, a USB port with iPod control, SiriusXM compatibility, and Pandora, iHeart Radio, Stitcher, and Aha smartphone app integration offer listening options galore.

Styling

As far as aesthetics go, the Subaru WRX is worlds away from the rest of the Subaru lineup…and that's a good thing. The Subaru WRX practically oozes athleticism and aggressive performance, with a bold hood scoop, sharply designed front fascia, and 17-inch alloy wheels. For an added boost to this vehicles' performance styling profile, we recommend springing for the Subaru WRX STI Limited trim, which features a high-flying rear spoiler and stunning 18-inch BBS® alloy wheels.

Performance

Under the hood, the Subaru WRX is motivated by a 268-horsepower SUBARU BOXER® engine mated to either a six-speed manual transmission or available Sport Lineartronic® automatic transmission. With a 0-60 sprint time of just 5.4 seconds, the Subaru WRX is tuned to give no end of exciting performance experiences for its drivers. However, acceleration isn't the Subaru WRX's only strong suit. In fact, with its sport-tuned suspension and Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive with Active Torque Vectoring, the Subaru WRX takes to corners with gusto, and as an added bonus, it also outperforms many competitor sedans in the snow and ice, which we see plenty of here in Indiana during the wintertime.

Additionally, for those who like to take their cars out to the track every now and then, the available Subaru WRX STI trim features an enhanced 305-horsepower turbocharged SUBARU BOXER® engine, Brembo® brakes, SI-DRIVE® system, a specially tuned track suspension, and a driver-controlled center differential for the Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system. All these enhancements come together to give drivers of the Subaru WRX STI practically unparalleled control over their vehicle, allowing them the freedom to push the limits and get every last ounce of performance out on the track.
