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.

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.
