Leave boring behind

No one does performance like we do, and the Subaru WRX is built for pure driving enjoyment. With a stylish and sophisticated interior surrounded by muscle car power and looks, this car oozes attitude.

If the classic mesh grille, 18" alloys, rear spoiler, red brake calipers¹ and sports body kit don’t command attention, the rumble of the Boxer engine will – delivering 197kW of power and [email protected] of torque.

Why WRX?
Symmetrical Force of Power

Our All-Wheel Drive philosophy
Greater balance and control. That’s the confidence you get from our unique Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive System, which delivers the drive distribution to all four wheels, all the time. Every Subaru WRX has an innate sense of balance from the ground up, thanks to a near perfect symmetrical layout.

Boxing Clever

Our famous Subaru Boxer engine
While most engines stand vertically, ours lay flat. The famous Subaru Boxer engine delivers handling like no other engine can. Sitting horizontally in the engine bay, it moves like a boxer’s fists with a punch and counterpunch action. Lightweight, low and flat, it makes for perfect balance and a much lower centre of gravity. It creates less noise and vibration too. All of this means better on-road handling for you. More stability. More performance. More fun. And a more confident drive.

DataDotDNA®

Every Subaru is fitted with advanced engine immobilisers and the DataDotDNA®¹ Theft Deterrent System. Microscopic dots are laseretched with each vehicle’s unique Vehicle Identification Number – making it a less attractive target for thieves.

Three Year Rebate on Theft Insurance Excess

DataDot Technology (Australia) Pty Ltd will pay your theft insurance excess² (up to a maximum of $800 including GST) should your new Subaru be stolen and not recovered within 45 days, despite the presence of DataDotDNA®1 and warning labels.

Finest safety

5 star ANCAP safety across the range
With spirit, quality and imagination comes some serious safety innovation. We want every Subaru to be amongst the safest cars on the road. Engineered full of cutting-edge technologies and the most intelligent design features. It’s not a Subaru unless it carries the maximum 5 star ANCAP³ safety rating.

Eyes in the back of your head

Rear view reverse camera
Manoeuvring back into a tight side street? Family driveway littered with toys? Reverse with confidence, thanks to our rear view reverse camera technology. The rear view reverse camera is like having eyes in the back of your head. This greatly improves your visibility and reduces the risk of bumps and scrapes. Rear view reverse camera standard on every Subaru WRX and WRX Premium.

Yet another world first

Lineartronic™ CVT
Pushing innovation beyond the bounds, we introduced an automatic transmission with no discernable steps or shifts. We called it Lineartronic™ CVT. And it’s the reason our automatic models drive so smooth. It’s the world’s first longitudinally mounted system for AWD vehicles. Unlike a conventional automatic transmission – which uses fixed gear ratios – our Lineartronic™ CVT provides infinite variability between the highest and lowest available gears. So you now experience a smooth gear change, into any optimum gear for that moment. CVT available on Subaru WRX and WRX Premium.

Intelligently driven

Subaru Intelligent Drive
Heading to the shops? Taking on the Great Ocean Road? Each situation deserves a distinctive driving mode, so we crafted Subaru Intelligent Drive (SI-Drive) technology standard on all Subaru WRX CVT variants to do just that. Switch from smart, to sporty to even sportier. Intelligent (I) mode – perfect for everyday driving, Sport (S) mode – for enhanced acceleration and all-round sporty performance and Sport Sharp (S#) mode – for a truly thrilling drive.

1. DataDotDNA® is a theft deterrent not a theft prevention mechanism. 2. Vehicles must be registered, comprehensively insured and less than 3 years old. DTA must receive a claim within 45 days of the theft. Terms and conditions apply. 3. The Australasian New Car Assessment Program (ANCAP) gives consumers consistent information on the level of occupant protection provided by vehicles in serious front and side crashes.

Attitude outside, luxury inside

If you’re wielding 197kW of muscle car power inside iconic sports styling, you’re going to want luxury comfort.

The Subaru WRX Premium also offers heated front seats and black leather¹ trim.

Set the soundtrack and make handsfree calls through the large intuitive touchscreen. A rear view reverse camera covers your rear just as satellite navigation on the WRX Premium keeps you heading in the right direction. Whatever you do, it’ll never be boring.
