WRX / WRX STI PERFORMANCE Subaru Core Technology TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT ACTIVE TORQUE VECTORING This technology helps make handling more precise while allowing you to push your vehicle closer to the limit. As you enter a corner and lateral g-forces take hold, the system applies braking force to the inside front wheel to help you keep your intended line. This means your WRX or WRX STI responds to your steering inputs more immediately and more engagingly. WRX STI SPORT-TUNED CHASSIS Years of heated competition, extensive testing, and advances in materials and engineering have been channeled into the chassis designs for the WRX and WRX STI. Exceptional stability and lightning-quick response were central to this development, as high-tensile steel was employed throughout the frame to increase its torsional rigidity and better control the vehicle’s weight. What’s more, the suspension is performance-tuned with large stabilizers, stiff spring-rates, and pillow-ball bushings, all optimized for high-speed handling. This expertly balances stiffness and compliance to create immediate response and an unprecedented connection between driver, car, and road. WRX 14 STI
