Subaru announces pricing on 2025 WRX

Subaru of America, Inc. announced pricing today on the 2025 WRX, including the new STI-tuned WRX tS. The 2025 Subaru WRX lineup offers exceptional performance throughout the model range beginning with its 271-horsepower, 2.4-liter turbocharged Subaru BOXER® engine and Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive. The new 2025 Subaru WRX tS goes further with electronically controlled adjustable dampers tuned by Subaru Tecnica International, uprated Brembo® brakes, and 19-inch alloy wheels in satin gray finish paired with Bridgestone Potenza S007 tires. The 2025 Subaru WRX will arrive at retailers in early 2025 with a starting price of $35,750 MSRP.

“Our customers expect value, performance and practicality with the 2025 Subaru WRX, and we’re happy to deliver all of those. Few buyers opted for the base trim level last year, while nearly half of all WRX buyers opt for features found on the Premium trim level, which is why it’s the entry point this year,” said William Stokes, Car Line Planning Manager for Subaru of America. “For 2025, the Subaru WRX lineup reflects our buyers’ preferences for features and fun at every stop, from Premium to tS.”

The 2025 Subaru WRX will be offered in four trim levels: Premium, Limited, GT, and tS. Last year’s base WRX configuration has been discontinued. A 6-speed manual transmission is standard on all trim levels, except the GT. The Subaru Performance Transmission (SPT) is available in Premium and Limited trim levels and is standard on the GT. The 6-speed manual transmission features optimized gear ratios with refined shift quality and Incline Start Assist. The SPT offers crisp up and down shifts, including adaptive shift control to quickly respond with rev-matching downshifts under braking to maintain an ideal gear ratio around corners for corner exits and Reverse Automatic Emergency Braking.

Visually, the 2025 Subaru WRX is marked by its iconic hood scoop and signature hexagonal grille flanked by compact LED headlights. The “WRX” badging stands out this year thanks to a new red badge in the grille and rear trunk lid. Galaxy Purple debuts this year as a new color available across the lineup for $395 MSRP. The new color is a rich purple hue enhanced by blue and purple metallic flake and pays a small tribute to the popular Plasma Blue tone from the third-generation WRX.

Inside, the 2025 Subaru WRX is equipped with an 11.6-inch SUBARU STARLINK® Multimedia Plus system with high-resolution touchscreen for audio, vehicle, and climate controls. Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility, SiriusXM All-Access Radio with 360L (4-month trial included), HD Radio, Bluetooth® hands-free phone and audio streaming are also equipped. All trim levels (aside from tS) boast revised interior red contrast “WRX” stitching in the dash, and WRX Limited and GT receive updated interiors with bold, red contrast stitching on seat bolsters and headrests.

For 2025, all Subaru WRX models are equipped with Subaru EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology and DriverFocus® Distraction Mitigation System, including models equipped with a manual transmission. On vehicles with a manual transmission, EyeSight® includes Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control with Lane Centering, Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Departure Prevention, and Pre-Collision Brake Assist. (Pre-Collision Throttle Management is included on models equipped with SPT.)

Also standard across the model line is the latest generation of SUBARU STARLINK® Safety and Security.
