The Powertrain of the 2022 Subaru WRX is as Colossal as Ever

The competition is tough in determining the best car model in a particular segment as several factors are considered and weighed to pick the best in the class. First of all, we consider its safety and security features, innovative features, its price, its overall aesthetic appeal, and its powertrain components. As car manufacturers promise a lot upon introducing their new models, the competition and expectations have gotten fiercer. But among the listed criteria, one of the most important and reasonable is the powertrain as it speaks about how the car would perform and what you could expect from it on the road.

One of the most sought-after high-performance cars for decades is the Subaru WRX. To continue impressing enthusiasts and car buyers with its fascinating powertrain performance, the Japanese automaker introduced the 2022 WRX with advanced technology features and upgraded engine components. Its stunning aesthetic appearance matches its components under the hood; both are sophisticated and aggressive.

According to those who have test-driven the car,  WRX didn’t lose its iconic performance; it has improved. The throttle response highlights and the acceleration act abruptly upon prompting. Its 2.4-liter turbocharged flat boxer engine gives it a phenomenal overall performance as a six-speed CVT delivers the power to its wheels. To note, they say they prefer the manual transmission as it works more smoothly and gives them dominance over the vehicle. Since it rides on the Subaru Global Platform, the automaker promises better stability and handling engagement than before. And the highlight of Subaru WRX’s campaign this year is the WRX's improved aerodynamics, which allows the car to move forward more efficiently and improve its grip around corners. Overall, as promised, the 2022 Subaru WRX has a very satisfying powertrain performance.
