More control,
more agility,

WRX STI

more STI.

The pursuit of performance never ends for Subaru, which is why the WRX STI
features design enhancements that intensify its handling prowess. Utilizing
the Dynamic Chassis Control Concept (DC3), all of the car’s elements — from
the rigid frame geometry to the symmetrical full-time AWD — work together to
create precise steering, dynamic cornering and immense amounts of traction.
The 2011 WRX STI features a redesigned STI performance-tuned strut
type front and double-wishbone rear suspension, including revised lower
arms with pillow ball bushings and thicker front and rear anti-roll bars.
These elements work together to increase stability, maximize tire contact
and reduce understeer during cornering. In
addition, the ride height has been lowered to
produce sharper cornering and more immediate
steering response. Finally, after extensive testing
under rigorous conditions, the entire suspension
system was made stiffer and then tuned for
greater precision.
The end result: The 2011 WRX STI is the fastest
ever around corners of every type — and the best ever
in terms of intuitive feedback and enhanced driver
control. (In other words, mission accomplished.)
