The new 2015 Subaru WRX is the one for the road

The author of the news says that he was highly impressed is an understatement after he has put the 2015 Subaru WRX through some unbelievably tough roads in the Northern California state. Whatever may be the opinion of its looks, the Subaru WRX is simply awesome. When it comes to talking about all weather sports sedans there is no car that can beat the “Rex”.

But the STI, the winged wonder is a car that represents what the world of dirt and gravel requires primarily. This winged marvel is really a rally superstar and many share the same opinion. The WRX has always been sharp but the STI has been a tad sharper always which however has been considered as a good thing in recent years. The WRX is a not a raring to go speed missile, but an easy to drive and forgiving honest automobile that offers reasonable comfort to the driver. The author chooses the WRX when it comes to a debate with the STI because the former is more conducive for daily activities.

The STI has never been a reassuring car to drive and the outgoing model did not offer any upgrades in the department of the refinement or comfort. But the 2015WRX is surely the best example of a hot hatch sedan to have come out of the Subaru. The car has been given 2.5 Liter, Boxer-4 Turbo engine spewing 305hp and 290lb-ft torque, which is then channelized into a 6-speed manual transmission. The car is able to overcome the 0-60mph in 5.1 seconds and has the all-wheel Drivetrain. At the curb it weighs about 3,386lbs and has the seating arrangement of 2 in the front and 3 on the rear. The interior leaves a 12cu-ft storage space for the passensgers’ luggage and has the fuel economy of 17mpg in the city and 23 for the highway.  The WRX will be commanding a base price of $34,495.
