2025 Subaru WRX vs. 2025 Volkswagen Jetta GLI
The 2025 Subaru WRX continues to set the standard for sport sedans that deliver real-world performance and all-season confidence. With standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, a turbocharged BOXER® engine, and rally-inspired handling, the WRX is built for drivers who crave excitement without sacrificing everyday comfort. Its aggressive styling, spacious interior, and available 11.6-inch touchscreen infotainment system make it a smart choice for those who want more from their drive — especially in places like Lee’s Summit where traction and control matter year-round.
Compare it to the 2025 Volkswagen Jetta GLI, and the difference becomes clear. While the GLI offers solid turbocharged power and sporty design, it’s limited by front-wheel drive, a smaller infotainment screen, and less passenger volume. The WRX delivers power, precision, and practicality — no compromises required. If you're looking for a sedan that’s ready for every season and every curve, the 2025 Subaru WRX is the one to beat.

Subaru WRX Power & Capability
The 2025 Subaru WRX isn’t just sporty — it’s engineered to deliver confidence and control in every condition. With a turbocharged 2.4L BOXER® engine under the hood, the WRX delivers 271 horsepower and responsive torque that makes every drive more thrilling. And unlike many sport sedans that rely solely on front-wheel drive, the WRX comes standard with Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive — giving you enhanced traction and performance whether you're carving corners or navigating slick roads.
When it comes to real-world performance, the WRX stands apart. Its low center of gravity from the BOXER® engine improves balance and handling, while its sport-tuned suspension and available adaptive dampers offer precision on every curve. Add in Subaru’s rally heritage, proven durability, and everyday drivability, and you’ve got a performance sedan that’s not just built for the track — it’s built for the road ahead.
