The Powerful Engine of the New Subaru WRX Near St. Petersburg

The new Subaru WRX is an exciting performance car known for its powerful turbocharged engine. This all-wheel drive sports sedan delivers an exhilarating driving experience that will thrill any driving enthusiast. Our dealership, Fitzgerald’s Countryside Subaru, in Clearwater, FL, proudly offers the new WRX.

The heart of the WRX is its high-performance 2.0-liter turbocharged BOXER® engine. This powerful motor generates 268 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. The turbocharger provides a big power boost across the entire rev range. Acceleration is lightning quick, allowing the WRX to go from zero to 60 miles per hour in just 5.4 seconds. The engine pulls hard throughout the power band and loves to be revved up for maximum performance around Clearwater, FL.

Tampa drivers will appreciate the great fuel economy, too. Despite its sporty nature, the WRX achieves 21 miles per gallon in the city and 27 miles per gallon on the highway. This is quite impressive for a car with so much performance.

The engine features Subaru’s trademark horizontally opposed design. This BOXER® configuration lowers the center of gravity for sharper handling. It also allows the engine to be mounted lower in the chassis, improving overall balance and stability around Tampa.

An advanced drivetrain ensures that all that power reaches the pavement. Subaru’s renowned Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system comes standard, providing tenacious grip and control. The six-speed manual transmission enables drivers to optimize every bit of power with quick, precise shifts.

Inside the WRX, St. Petersburg drivers will find a driver-focused cockpit designed for performance driving. The front seats have deep bolsters to hold you in place during aggressive cornering. The flat-bottom steering wheel, aluminum pedals, and red stitching throughout the black interior further enhance the car’s sporty personality.

From backroad carving to daily commuting, the new Subaru WRX delivers an unforgettable driving experience. Visit our dealership near Largo, FL, to take this rally rocket for a test drive.
