2026 Subaru WRX Limited

The 2026 Subaru WRX is a compact sport sedan that carries the brand's rally-bred performance heritage into a practical, everyday package. Its main rivals are the Honda Civic Type R, Volkswagen Golf R, and Toyota GR Corolla, all of which offer similar hot-hatch or sport-sedan thrills. The WRX grips hard through corners and delivers a punchy turbo surge, making it one of the most engaging all-weather sport sedans you can buy. The ride is firm and the cabin is a bit loud on the highway, but that is the price of its sharp handling and rally-bred character. Inside, the WRX offers a straightforward dashboard with supportive seats and a decent-sized trunk, though rear-seat space is a bit snug for tall adults. Stepping up to the Limited from the Premium adds the moonroof, blind-spot detection, and the Harman Kardon audio system, plus Ultrasuede-and-leather seats with red stitching. The 2.4L I4 makes 271 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, and the six-speed automatic routes power to all four wheels; it returns 21 mpg combined in mixed driving. The Limited's 10-way power driver's seat and heated front seats are part of the All-Weather Package, which also includes heated mirrors and a wiper de-icer.
