Subaru Unveils the Subaru WRX Wagon
Subaru will be releasing a WRX Wagon. The Sportwagon will be arriving as a 2022 model year vehicle after a 15-year hiatus. This news comes after the release of the 2022 Subaru WRX which debuted last year (2021). Subaru unveiled the newly redesigned rally sports sedan and highlighted its new changes. After seeing how well received the new WRX was, Subaru decided to offer a wagon body-style model alongside the iconic WRX. Both the Subaru WRX Wagon and WRX sedan will feature similar designs but we’ll go into more detail about the new Sportwagon and see what consumers can expect.
Subaru Unveils Subaru WRX Wagon
Subaru will be releasing a WRX Sportwagon for the 2022 model year. The Sportwagon will accompany the Subaru WRX sedan which was released last year. The Subaru WRX sedan received a lot of praise given its new design and improved performance. This likely spurred Subaru to offer the Sportwagon alongside it. Like the sedan, the Sportwagon will receive a continuously variable transmission which has been enhanced with faster-simulated shifts between gear ratios. Subaru has also improved the gearbox by allowing upshifts to be 30 percent quicker and downshifts 50 percent quicker. The Subaru WRX Wagon will also utilize a 2.4L turbocharged engine that’s capable of 271 horsepower and 258lb-ft of torque. Unlike the sedan version, the Sportwagon will only come paired with an automatic transmission.
Looking at the 2022 Subaru WRX Wagon, consumers will note a design similar to the sedan WRX. The Sportwagon will ride on the same Subaru Global Platform as the sedan so it will feature similar performance. The WRX Wagon has a front fascia with the iconic WRX hood-scoop as well as sharp LED lights. At the rear, the Sportwagon has a sloping rear end which gives it a sportier look. Owners will also have access to a variety of accessories such as a roof rack, bike rack, and STi body kit.
Inside the WRX Wagon, owners will note a layout similar to the WRX sedan. The wagon will feature carbon fiber accents along with contrast red stitching. Sporty bucket seats are also available for the front seats. The wagon is big enough to accommodate 5 passengers. For storage, there is 31.9 cubic feet of space with the rear seats split. As for infotainment, the WRX Wagon offers either a 7-inch or an 11.6-inch touchscreen. This comes compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Those interested in the 2022 Subaru WRX Wagon can look forward to it this Fall.
