Used 2016 Subaru WRX Limited

The 2016 Subaru WRX is a high-performance compact sports sedan that delivers a thrilling driving experience while still offering the practicality of a four-door layout. Rooted in Subaru’s rally heritage, the WRX combines turbocharged power, precise handling, and standard all-wheel drive, making it equally at home on winding back roads, in challenging weather, or during your daily commute. Under the hood, the 2016 WRX is powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged flat-four “boxer” engine producing 268 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. This engine layout helps lower the car’s center of gravity, improving stability and cornering performance. A six-speed manual transmission is standard for maximum driver engagement, while a sport-tuned continuously variable transmission (CVT) with paddle shifters is available for those who prefer an automatic. Subaru’s symmetrical all-wheel-drive system comes standard, providing exceptional grip and control in all conditions. The exterior design is aggressive and purposeful. The wide stance, sculpted body lines, and flared fenders give it a muscular look, while 17-inch alloy wheels, side skirts, and a subtle rear spoiler enhance its performance-oriented appearance. Quad exhaust outlets and a diffuser-style rear bumper complete the sporty profile. Inside, the WRX offers a driver-focused cockpit with supportive sport seats, a thick-rimmed leather-wrapped steering wheel, and aluminum pedal covers. The materials are durable and well-fitted, with available premium upgrades such as leather-trimmed upholstery, heated front seats, and a power driver’s seat. The rear seats fold down to expand the trunk’s cargo capacity, making the WRX surprisingly versatile for a performance car. Technology includes Subaru’s STARLINK infotainment system with a touchscreen display, Bluetooth connectivity, USB ports, and smartphone integration. Higher trims add features like a Harman Kardon premium audio system, navigation, and a larger display screen. Safety is a Subaru hallmark, and the WRX is equipped with stability and traction control, anti-lock brakes, a reinforced body structure, and multiple airbags. Models equipped with the CVT can also be fitted with Subaru’s EyeSight driver-assist suite, adding adaptive cruise control, pre-collision braking, and lane departure warning. The 2016 Subaru WRX blends everyday usability with sports-car performance, offering sharp steering, strong acceleration, and confidence-inspiring handling. It’s an ideal choice for driving enthusiasts who also need the practicality of a sedan with year-round capability.
