From the exterior this model is easily recognisable with the huge rear spoiler, along with larger Brembo brakes, ventilated and drilled front and rear discs and 19 inch alloy wheels.

Inside the tS Spec B has Recaro sports seats, with electronic adjustment for the driver, heated front seats as well as outer rear seats,

Performance additions include Drive Mode select for the manual. This includes electronically adjustable dampers, enabling drivers to customise their driving dynamics for a more personalised experience.

There is a new 12.3-inch full LCD instrument cluster, NEW Emergency Driving Stop System (EDSS), and a great feeling leather steering wheel with STI logo.

But the best feature is the sports exhaust that delivers a delicious burble from the turbo boxer engine.

The Subaru WRX has long been a sports car performance icon, and even though the competition has caught up and sometimes bettered it, there is an amazing amount of popularity amongst the public for this car.

But the WRX at heart is a driver car. The boxer engine delivers. It’s  not outright fast from a standstill, but:

Through the gears on a windy back road there are few cars that deliver as much excitement

and driver engagement as the WRX Ts Spec B.

In short it was a blast to drive.

The post Subaru WRX tS Spec B AWD driven for 2025 appeared first on Motoring Minute.

It comes with the same turbocharged 2.4-litre, horizontally-opposed four-cylinder Boxer engine that delivers some 202 kW of power and Torque of 350 Nm of torque This is matched to a 6 speed manual transmission.

The first thing you notice is the huge rear wing. That’s a throwback to the glory Sti days of the WRX.

However, it also has the subtle styling of the sedan as well

I do like the matte grey 19 inch alloys with performance tyres. They contrast nicely with the Brembo brakes that show through.

Inside the main difference is comfortable and supportive Recaro seats for the front occupants. These fit snugly and keep you secure when you start to get enthusiastic.

When I first drove it it felt harsh in the suspension and tiresome with the manual box. However, that quickly changed and the more I drove it the more I really enjoyed buzzing around.

Its not outright fast these days, but on a winding hilly road it will showcase its sporty nature and keep up with many more fancied sports cars.

That’s the key here. Its fun, inexpensive fun. Its priced from around $52,590 plus the usual costs and there isn’t mush around that price that’s as much fun.

I do wish they would bring back the Sti versions though
