13 Mar 2022|601 views
Subaru has announced that this new WRX platform will not be getting an internal combustion-engined WRX STI variant.
The move, the firm states, comes as part a new focus on developing future sports and performance cars that can meet the needs of an electrified marketplace, as well as the changing regulations on greenhouse gas emissions and corporate fuel economy averages.
Fortunately, the WRX STI name won't be lost, as the firm also states that it will pursue opportunities for the next generation Subaru WRX STI, which could include electrification. No further information on what the future drivetrain could look like have yet been provided.
