TechnoBok's video: Subaru WRX 2022 - Still The Essence of WRX

Subaru has unveiled the fifth model to wear the iconic WRX (World Rally eXperimental) nameplate that, in 1992, signalled a new era for performance motoring. The new Subaru WRX represents the core values of the brand, meticulously built around the “ultimate in driving performance for greater safety” philosophy. We took this new WRX to Cape farm roads to see if it still has the right sauce? Exhilarating Performance The beating heart of the 2022 Subaru WRX is the new 2.4-litre, 4-cylinder turbocharged horizontally-opposed Boxer® petrol engine. It delivers 202kW (+5kW) at 5,600rpm and a wide torque band of 350Nm between 2,000 and 5,200rpm. There are 2 derivatives available in the line-up: the WRX Manual and the WRX tS ES. In the Manual derivative, the 2.4-litre Boxer® engine is joined to a 6-speed manual gearbox. The WRX tS ES derivative brings with it the newly-developed 8-speed Subaru Performance Transmission (SPT) that is up to 50% faster than before. Subaru Global Platform The new Subaru WRX is designed, engineered, and built with safety, performance and luxury as key deliverables. By building the WRX on the Subaru Global Platform, the WRX now represents the highest levels of refinement in Subaru's history. With an increase of 14% in front lateral rigidity and 28% torsional rigidity, the new Subaru WRX benefits with more impressive agility and control. The chassis and grip levels are further enhanced from an increase in the rigidity of the suspension mounting points and longer suspension stroke to effortlessly absorb wheel movement on uneven road surfaces, a key feature of any WRX. WRX-pressive Interior At the heart of the cabin design is the new 11.6-inch infotainment system that serves as an easy-to-access hub for a wide range of entertainment and vehicle-related functions. The high-resolution, tablet-style screen recreates the operational premise of modern smart devices for intuitive, and safe, system navigation. The system retains physical buttons for operating volume and temperate control to ensure distraction-free driving. The system features Android Auto, Apple CarPlay and Bluetooth in addition to a built-in navigation programme that is standard across the locally-available WRX range. All WRX models are available with a 10-speaker Harman Kardon sound system. Also incorporated into the system is individually selectable and customisable drive mode select interface as well as a number of other information features including car settings, vehicle diagnostics and more.
