Subaru has long been known as one
of the safest vehicles on the road. Many
times you hear stories of Subaru’s being totaled and its passengers walking away
completely unharmed. And now, Subaru is taking their performance car and making
it even safer. In 2018, the new Subaru WRX STI will be getting upgrades in
terms of performance as well safety.
The WRX STI will first experience a
change in design. With larger wheel, the WRX STI adds an additional 1.6 inches
to the cars length and 1.5 inches to its width. Subaru also dropped the WRX STI
almost a half inch to the ground. Built
as the little brother to the Subaru Impreza, the WRX STI, has enjoyed many of
the same safety features. And now Subaru
has added features to help the WRX STI be the safest performance model it has
ever had.
Subaru has made substantial changes
that will be incorporated into the new model, particularly in it’s driving dynamics. The new model's
chassis has been increased up to 70 percent which makes steering more
responsive, the WRX STI will also have 50 percent less body roll and better
cornering dynamic. Lastly, crash energy absorption is increased by 40 percent
as reported.
Given how the Subaru 2018 WRX STI
features safety above everything else, it's clear how the automaker's tagline
of "Love. It's what makes a Subaru a Subaru." is more than just that.
For those that want performance but also value safety at the same time, this is
a car that perfectly suits such lifestyle.
