The new-gen 2022 WRX will not be getting an STI version, a shock announcement by Subaru USA has revealed. As has been the case for most of our favourite cars and nameplates being culled or unrecognisably altered in recent years, electrification is to blame.

Rally driver Mark Higgins sets new lap record around famous TT circuit in all-new Subaru WRX STI


Like the manual STI, the A-Line is equipped with Subaru’s SI-Drive system that allows the driver to select his or her preferred mode of driving, a trend that is commonly found in most performance cars these days. With the SI-Drive, three modes are available. Push the knob downwards to select 'Intelligent' for eco-friendly driving, twist the knob left for the normal 'Sport' and right for 'Sport Sharp' if you need sharpened throttle response for spirited driving. Naturally, we had it in 'Sport Sharp' for the most part.
