Current technology CVTs have a maximum torque limit. Above that back to traditional AT or DCT na. The WRX has 268 HP and 258 lb-ft of torque. It comes with a CVT and for a car that size I think that's enough. It was mentioned before that a Lancer with engine upgrades broke its CVT dahil di kinaya ang output. I can't recall what the numbers were on that car.
May issue pala siya sa mga lancer. Mga modern car kasi mga naka CVT, Altis sana kaso CVT rin. SUV naman hindi afford ng budget kapag plus maintenance na.
