The new WRX has more cargo space at the back, which is everything you love about it.
The 2022 Subaru WRX Sportwagon has arrived. Unfortunately, the model is only available in Australia at this time. It looks fantastic and would offer a bit more utility than the sedan. It will be available for purchase in the second quarter 2022.
The WRX Sportswagon gives Australians an extra version of this performance machine that is more practical for daily use,” Blair Read, General Manager Subaru Australia, stated. The WRX Sportswagon will stand alone as a model, with the sedan and sportswagon each featuring unique specifications that are tailored to their respective markets.
The WRX Sportswagon looks almost identical to the Subaru Levorg. Only the lower fascia is different than the wheels.
Subaru did not release photos of the interior of the WRX Sportswagon. It would likely get the same trim and sporty seats as the sedan. It will likely have the 11.6-inch infotainment display. It supports Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and Bluetooth connectivity. Upgrades are possible to an 11-speaker Harman Kardon soundsystem.
The powertrain works in the same way as the WRX sedan. It has a 2.4-liter four-cylinder boxer engine that produces 271 horsepower (202 Kilowatts) as well as 258 pound-feet (349 Nms) of torque. You can choose between a six-speed manual transmission or the Subaru Performance Transmission CVT. Naturally, there’s all-wheel drive.
The WRX Sportswagon is not expected to be available in the US or other markets. However, it seems that there would be a market for the machine in America. Many people might prefer the hatchback’s appearance to a sedan, or the additional cargo space.
The 2022 WRX sedan is expected to go on sale in the first half of 2022. Pricing details have not yet been released by the company for this new model.
