Subaru WRX

Getting inside the cabin, you can find a lot of sporty elements such as leather-wrapped steering with red accents, aluminum pedals, and pedal shifters, which will surely make you feel like you are driving a race car. The seats are 10-way power-adjustable and also comes with red stitching to offer a sporty feel to the cabin. 

The instrument console comes with an electronic multi-trip meter, digital odometer, and tachometer. Other features include Air Quality Control, Engine Start/Stop Button, On-Board Computer, Automatic Headlamps, Multi-function Steering Wheel, Accessory Power Outlet, Cruise Control, Rear Seat Headrest, Cup Holders, Keyless Entry and Centre Console Armrest.

When it comes to the design of the car, it is one of the sportiest looking sedans that one can get in Singapore. It comes with a functional air intake on the hood that looks very muscular and surely works like a charm in cooling the engine. The LED headlamps not only look sleek but also comes with an auto-leveling feature that levels the spread of the headlight according to the road conditions. 

Moving to the rear, it flaunts a sporty spoiler that enhances the overall look of the car. Other features include LED fog lamps, Rain Sensing Wiper, Power Adjustable Exterior Rear View Mirror, Rear Window Defogger, Sun Roof, Alloy Wheels, and Integrated Antenna.

When it comes to track drives, it offers an amazing ride quality and top-notch handling. The steering offers an amazing feel and feedback that offers confidence while crossing triple-digit speeds. In the city, it feels very nimble but the stiff suspension will not do a great job on bad roads. The performance-tuned suspension might feel good to ride but lacks refinement as it generates a lot of noise inside the cabin. The weight management is very good and the power to weight ratio is the part where this car shines.

Under the hood, it comes equipped with a 1998cc 4-cylinder direct-injection turbocharged motor, which is capable of churning out a maximum power of 264 hp and a peak torque of 350 Nm. When it comes to the transmission duties, there are two gearboxes on offer - a six-speed manual and a lineartronic CVT. The power is sent to all the wheels via a symmetrical all-wheel-drive system. It flaunts center differential that does its best to break 50:50 power in normal driving but can send back or forward power when desired. In addition to that, it comes with a brake-based torque-vectoring mechanism that nabs the inside wheel in rough turns to boost cornering.

The Subaru WRX performs the best in the braking department as it comes equipped with ventilated disc brakes assisted by ABS on all four wheels. The braking performance is such that it can come to a complete stop from 60 mph in just 112 seconds, which is one the best in the segment. It flaunts 12.4-inch brake rotors on the front and 11.2-inch units on the rear. 

Other safety features include airbags, Driver Airbag, Child Safety Locks, Brake Assist, EBD, Rear Seat Belts, Vehicle Stability Control System, Rear Camera, Crash Sensor, Parking Sensors, Engine Check Warning, Side Impact Beams, Front Impact Beams, and Door Ajar Warning.

The Subaru WRX is a great sports sedan that comes with a robust engine, amazing brakes, and sporty interiors. The handling of this vehicle has always been popular among enthusiasts. Sport-tuned suspension ensures that the sporty and agile handling of the WRX is more suited to the fast curves of the race circuit than to override the bounces on the way to the workplace. If you are someone looking for a sports sedan for performance requirements, this can be a great option.
