2021 Subaru WRX STI
The 2021 Subaru WRX STI is a rally-bred sport compact sedan that delivers raw driving engagement, aggressive styling, and legendary all-wheel-drive performance. It is powered by a 2.5-liter turbocharged BOXER flat-four engine producing 310 horsepower and 290 lb-ft of torque, paired exclusively with a 6-speed close-ratio manual transmission, making it one of the last true enthusiast-focused cars in its segment. Subaru’s symmetrical full-time all-wheel drive system with Driver Controlled Centre Differential (DCCD) provides exceptional grip and control in all conditions, from dry pavement to snow and gravel. Built with performance in mind, it features sport-tuned suspension, Brembo high-performance brakes, and active torque vectoring, giving it sharp handling and track-ready capability. The aggressive exterior design includes wide fenders, a functional hood scoop, quad exhaust outlets, and the iconic large rear wing, reinforcing its motorsport heritage. Inside, the cabin is driver-focused with sport seats, STI-specific gauges, aluminum pedals, and a traditional manual driving layout, prioritizing control and engagement over luxury. As the final model year of the EJ-engine STI generation, it stands out as a modern classic, offering a pure, analog driving experience with turbocharged power, mechanical grip, and a strong connection between driver and machine, making it highly desirable for enthusiasts who value performance, control, and rally-inspired character.
