Subaru WRX
As we anxiously wait for the next generation built on the new Subaru Global Platform, the wild twins return for 2020 with minor changes and tweaks, but the same 268- and 310-horsepower engines. The WRX benefits from an updated rear differential and standard EyeSight on all variants equipped with a Sport Lineartronic transmission, plus new Brembo performance brakes in top-line Sport-tech RS trim. The WRX STI’s enhanced look includes redesigned alloy wheels on select trims.
