2025 Subaru WRX Engine & Performance Specs

You’ll experience precision handling and energetic performance behind the wheel of the 2025 Subaru WRX. The included 2.4L turbocharged SUBARU BOXER® four-cylinder engine is standard with a fully synchronized six-speed manual transmission to place gear shifts directly in your hands.

All WRX models are equipped with summer high-performance tires designed for top-level handling.

The Subaru Intelligent Drive (SI-DRIVE®) engine performance management system enhances engine control unit regulation, fine-tunes the electronically controlled throttle, and adjusts the Subaru performance transmission when you opt for the GT trim. Turn to the new WRX tS trim for improved handling with its standard Brembo® high-performance brakes with signature gold six-piston front and two-piston rear calipers and STI-tuned four-wheel independent suspension with electronically controlled dampers.
