Let's just say Subaru might have been spreading that Wilderness aesthetic to models that don't really need it.

looks a bit... EVO?

Good thing for this new WRX that they ditched the CVT for a more proper auto slushbox.

Mixed info coming in. Sa /r/subaru they're convinced the "GT" is still a CVT, but Motor Trend says it'll be a traditional automatic. I really hope it's a torque converter na.

But it's hella ugly lol. Rebrand na dapat nila to "WRXV"

This color is probably going to be the most popular

The orange paint on the new WRX reminds me of the Subaru XV.

.. unless there is a mechanical or aerodynamic reason why there are too many angles and curves in the behind...

it'll probably lose in the top choices of the automatic car washers owners association...

but that's just me.

I totally agree it's butt ugly!

The Levorg will probably be far more popular this time around.

Essentially the same car, but looks so much better just by not having the stupid body cladding.

I’d consider that Levorg or the Outback XT.

Yes the Levorg looks way better than the WRX.
Lets just hope Motor Image Phil(Subaru phil) would bring in the new Levorg with the higher spec WRX engine rather than the standard engine they initially introduced the Levorg with.

The Levorg was initially launched in the Philippines with a 1.6L turbo engine. However, the later models were already equipped with the FA20 engine (XT, WRX) tuned to same output as the WRX (268hp/350Nm).

Biggest difference between the WRX and Levorg aside from the body (sedan vs wagon) is that the suspension of the WRX is tuned to be stiffer. Passengers will not appreciate sitting on the rear seats of the WRX.
