THERE ARE PLENTY of ways to get fans of affordable performance cars all riled up, but there’s one sure-fire method that Subaru just can’t quit: packaging a continuously variable transmission (CVT) with its now legendary WRX.
This WRX isn’t blessed with an STI badge – indeed, no second generation WRX will ever be, sadly – but it’s still sold as a sporting car, and it still packs a formidable 202kW, 350Nm turbocharged four-cylinder boxer engine.
