Subaru of America announced pricing and new upgrades for the 2021 WRX and WRX STI performance cars. The sport-tuned Subaru WRX and performance-tuned WRX STI get few changes, which isn’t a surprise ahead of the redesign coming next year.
What is the price of the 2021 WRX and STI?
The 2021 WRX comes in base 6-speed manual priced at $28,420, Premium 6MT ($30,970), Premium CVT ($32,870), Limited 6MT ($33,020), and Limited CVT ($34,920). Pricing includes destination and delivery ($925).
WRX has two option packages. Navigation, Harman Kardon amplifier and speakers, Blind-Spot Detection, and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert ($2,100.) Navigation, Harman Kardon amplifier and speakers, Blind-Spot Detection/Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, Reverse Auto Brake, and High Beam Assist ($2,400).
The 2021 WRX STI comes in base trim starting at $38,170, WRX STI Limited with Wing or low profile trunk spoiler ($$42,870). Pricing includes destination and delivery ($925). STI offers one option package, Recaro front seats ($2,250.)
What are the new upgrades on the 2021 WRX and STI?
As expected, the 2021 Subaru WRX and WRX STI get few changes. The 2021 WRX Premium trim gets keyless access with push-button start as standard. The 2021 WRX STI remains unchanged.
The 2021 Subaru WRX stays with the same 2.0-liter turbocharged Boxer engine producing 268 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. The 2021 WRX STI keeps the 2.5-liter turbocharged Boxer producing 310 horsepower and 290 lb-ft of torque.
Subaru WRX and STI will do well in its last year before the remodel
The Subaru WRX and STI have sold surprisingly well before its major redesign. We expect the 2021 model year change also to sell well and be in strong demand.
Subaru will likely bring a 2021 Limited Edition WRX and WRX STI for the new model year. Look for a new unique edition model to be revealed next spring with a summer 2021 launch. The 2021 Subaru WRX and 2021 Subaru WRX STI arrive at Subaru retailers in March 2021.
