Subaru is bringing back a blast from the past with the revival of the TR moniker, last seen in 2006 when it stood for “Tuner Ready”. The 2024 WRX TR, however, takes a different direction, presenting a performance-focused model with significant upgrades and modifications for enthusiasts.

In the pursuit of enhanced performance, the WRX TR boasts a high-performance Brembo braking system with red 6-piston front callipers, red 2-piston rear callipers, larger pads, rotors, and an enlarged brake master cylinder. This configuration significantly elevates stopping power, fade resistance, and pedal feel for a truly exhilarating driving experience.

The TR trim is finely tuned for exceptional handling, featuring stiffer springs, revised damping rates, and a retuned steering rack. These modifications provide improved body control and steering response while maintaining a comfortable ride. Bridgestone Potenza S007 tires, sized at 245/35 R19, are standard, ensuring grip in both wet and dry conditions alongside enhanced braking performance.

A notable addition for the WRX TR equipped with a manual transmission is the EyeSight Driver Assist Technology, offering a suite of advanced safety features including Adaptive Cruise Control, Pre-Collision Braking System, Lane Departure and Sway Warning, and Lead Vehicle Start Alert. (more…)
