2021 Subaru WRX: every variant sold in Australia
7 variants of the Subaru WRX carry the 2021 model year in our catalogue — the VA generation, sold new 2014–2021. Specs, safety, economy and standard equipment for every grade, side by side.
The 2021 Subaru WRX is no longer sold new in Australia. A price is shown only where we hold Subaru's own printed price for that variant: what it cost new, not a current offer or a used value. Specifications are kept for used-buyer research. See the current Subaru WRX.

Equipment across the 2021 range
Four states, never three. Standard means the document prints it as standard on that grade. Optional means it is a factory extra, at the price the document prints. No means the document confirms it is not available. No data means we have not read it off a Subaru document yet, which is not the same as saying the car does not have it.

Recalls on the 2021 Subaru WRX
The reverse lamps may not illuminate and the rear-view reverse camera may not display the rearwards image when reversing as intended.
Published 2022-08-11. Year range on the notice: 2015 - 2021. Matched to 1 of the 7 variants on this page. REC-005484 on the government register
If the reverse lamps and the rear-view reverse camera do not operate as intended, it could increase the risk of an accident causing serious injury or death to persons located behind the vehicle and/or other road users.
Where a figure has not been read off a source document it reads “No data” rather than a zero or a dash, and an equipment column reads “No” only where a document confirms the feature is not available. Full specs, the source for each variant and a side-by-side configurator for every Subaru WRX variant, including other model years, are on the model page.
