With available high-definition tablet-style 11.6-inch SUBARU STARLINK Multimedia system and latest generation EyeSight Driver Assist Technology, the 2022 WRX delivers greater performance, technology, and safety than ever before. The 2022 WRX will be available at Subaru retailers in early 2022.

Front and center in the cabin, and highlighting the driver-focused interior, is an all-new tablet-style 11.6-inch full HD center information display. The 11.6-inch STARLINK Multimedia Plus offers direct touch controls for multimedia, HVAC, and vehicle settings. As with a smartphone, app icons can be moved and configured based on personal preference.

Both the Multimedia Plus and Multimedia Plus with Navigation offer a split-screen display, a first for Subaru.

Tuned especially for the WRX, the HK sound system features premium technology to provide immersive sound for every passenger. The system is equipped with GreenEdge, an amplifier technology that enables passengers to experience superior sound quality with minimal energy consumption and Clari-Fi, a technology that analyzes and restores lost audio signals in real-time. The two technologies help deliver a rich, uncompressed listening experience.
