Subaru has officially revealed the price of the WRX, which saw a slight increase for the 2023 model year. Additionally, destination charges for the performance sedan have increased, albeit slightly.
For the 2023 model year, the fifth-generation Subaru WRX starts at $31,625 for the base trim. That includes a six-speed manual transmission, linked to the 2.4-liter turbocharged boxer engine that develops 271 horsepower (202 kilowatts) and 258 pound-feet (349 Newton-meters) of torque, standard across the lineup. Subaru’s symmetrical all-wheel drive is also standard for the WRX lineup.

Opting for the base WRX trim with Subaru Performance automatic transmission (SPT) raises the price to $33,475. This adds EyeSight driver-assist technology with advanced adaptive cruise control to the equipment list, along with automatic vehicle hold, paddle shifter, SI-Drive and electronic parking brake.
Meanwhile, opting for the WRX Premium secures $34,125 for the MT variant, which is expected to come with a set of 18-inch dark gray finished alloy wheels with summer tires, LED fog lights, a low-profile rear spoiler matched to body color, and automatic on/off headlights linked to wiper operation. Add $1,875 to that price and you’ll get an 11-speaker Harman Kardon system and a power sunroof.
The WRX Limited has a starting price of $38,515 for the MT variant, which is expected to come with more standard amenities such as steering-responsive LED headlights and side mirrors with integrated turn signals.
The top-of-the-line WRX GT, with its standard electronically controlled dampers and automatic SPT, has a price tag of $44,415. This variant also features Recaro Performance Design front seats, trimmed in black Ultrasuede with contrasting red stitching and embossed “Recaro” logo on the seatbacks.
All prices listed here include destination and delivery charges of $1,020, up from last year’s price of $995.
