New Subaru WRX Inventory brattleboro

You want a car that feels alive on a winding back road but still handles a snowy commute. The Subaru WRX with the SPT automatic is built for both. Browse our new inventory to see what's on the lot, or search Subaru WRX listings and confirm availability with us.

271-Horsepower Turbo Boxer Performance

Subaru engineered the WRX around a 2.4-liter direct-injection turbocharged SUBARU BOXER that makes 271 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. A twin-scroll turbocharger and electronic wastegate help the engine respond when you ask for power. That matters when you're merging onto I-91 or passing on Route 9 (Molly Stark Trail). Fuel economy varies by trim and model year.

How the Subaru Performance Transmission (SPT) Works

The Subaru Performance Transmission (SPT) is a performance-tuned automatic with an 8-speed manual mode, offered on select WRX trims. You get automatic convenience when you want it and manual control when you'd rather shift for yourself.

8-Speed Paddle-Shift Control and Automatic Downshift Blipping

Paddle shifters sit at your fingertips, so you can pick a gear without leaving the wheel. On a winding road, tap the left paddle as you approach a tight corner to downshift and settle the car before the turn. The SPT also blips the throttle on downshifts to match engine speed, which smooths out the shift.

Faster Response and Everyday Drivability

Subaru engineered the SPT shift logic to be aggressive and to respond more quickly and intelligently to your input than a conventional automatic. When it launched, Subaru rated its downshifts up to 50% quicker than the WRX's previous automatic. In daily driving, that means the Subaru WRX automatic doesn't feel lazy when you press the pedal. It also stays easy in stop-and-go traffic.

SPT Automatic vs. Manual: Which WRX Fits Your Drive

Both transmissions suit the WRX. The 6-speed manual offers an engaged driving experience with a responsive transmission and a precise, accurate shifter. The SPT trades the clutch pedal for paddle control. Each one fits a different kind of driver:

• Commuters in heavy traffic will likely prefer the SPT.

• If your daily route is full of steep hills, skipping the clutch on hill starts can be a relief.

• Stop-and-go traffic is simply easier without a clutch pedal.

• Enthusiasts who want the most hands-on feel often lean toward the 6-speed manual.

• Shared-driver households may find the SPT easier for everyone.

The SPT also brings features the manual doesn't. Auto Vehicle Hold keeps the car still at a light without your foot on the brake. Reverse Automatic Braking can stop the car if it detects an obstacle while backing up. Pre-Collision Throttle Management helps limit sudden acceleration when there's an obstacle ahead. SI-Drive lets you adjust engine response for an easy commute or a spirited back road.

The best answer comes from driving both. Book a test drive and we'll let you compare them back to back, with no pressure.

Symmetrical AWD and EyeSight Driver Assist for Vermont Roads

Vermont tests a car with hills, weather and rough pavement. The WRX comes with two systems aimed at exactly that.

All-Weather Traction on Hills, Snow and Rural Routes

Full-time Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive is standard and sends power to all four wheels for traction on different surfaces. Picture climbing a hill in snow, or merging on I-91 in wet weather. Rural routes with ice or gravel are fair game too. AWD helps you get going, yet stopping distance stays the same, so winter tires still matter.

Standard EyeSight Safety Technology

EyeSight Driver Assist Technology is standard across the current WRX lineup, including manual models. It monitors traffic movement, optimizes cruise control and warns you when the car begins to sway in its lane. Pre-Collision Braking can apply full braking force and stop the vehicle in an emergency. Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control with Lane Centering helps with steering and braking in traffic and on road trips, and manages the throttle too. Automatic Emergency Steering is available on upper trims. EyeSight assists the driver, so you still need to stay attentive behind the wheel.
