2020 Subaru WRX STI Performance and Engine
EJ25 2.5L DOHC High-Boost Turbocharged Engine
The 2020 WRX STI is powered by Subaru's iconic 2.5-liter DOHC intercooled high-boost turbocharged flat-four — producing 310 horsepower and 290 lb-ft of torque in stock form. Paired with a close-ratio 6-speed manual transmission, every gear change is precise, mechanical, and deeply satisfying. This isn't a dual-clutch paddle-shifter experience — this is a proper driver's car that rewards skill and engagement.
Power is routed through Subaru's legendary symmetrical all-wheel drive system with a driver-controlled center differential (DCCD), giving you real-time control over your AWD balance — something no ordinary sports car offers. Whether roads are wet from Pacific Northwest rain or dry and twisting through Yakima Canyon, the STI's AWD system delivers traction and confidence that front- or rear-wheel-drive performance cars simply can't match.
Subaru WRX STI Features and Interior
STI Trim Appointments
The WRX STI trim elevates the already capable WRX with a long list of performance and comfort upgrades. Brembo front brakes provide fade-resistant stopping power that matches the car's serious performance credentials. The Recaro front seats — a hallmark of the STI — hold driver and passenger firmly in place through corners without sacrificing daily comfort. An 8-inch STARLINK touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto keeps you connected, while a Harman Kardon premium audio system delivers impressive sound for a performance-focused cabin.
The STI also comes standard with a rear wing spoiler, STI-tuned suspension with Bilstein dampers, 18-inch dark gray BBS wheels, and a range of drive mode settings that let you tailor the car's character to the road ahead. Inside, the flat-bottom steering wheel, rally-inspired gauges, and STI badging throughout create an environment that keeps you focused on what matters: driving.
Subaru WRX STI Reliability and Ownership
The WRX STI has built a decades-long reputation for durability when properly maintained. The EJ25 engine in the STI, while different from the WRX's FA20DIT, is a proven platform that responds well to regular oil changes and quality fuel — premium 91+ octane is recommended and important for protecting the turbocharger and maintaining full performance. Owners who follow Subaru's maintenance schedule consistently report high-mileage reliability with this platform.
One thing buyers should know: the STI's performance potential means maintenance history matters. At 40,156 miles, this car is young enough that major service intervals are either fresh or upcoming, and any reputable pre-purchase inspection will likely confirm the tight, well-sorted condition this model is known for when cared for properly. Subaru's AWD system is also renowned for long-term durability — a major reason the brand dominates in Pacific Northwest markets where road conditions vary dramatically by season.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the 2020 Subaru WRX STI a good buy?
Absolutely. The 2020 WRX STI delivers 310 horsepower, a close-ratio 6-speed manual, Brembo brakes, and Subaru's symmetrical AWD in a practical four-door sedan package. It's one of the few cars at any price that offers genuine rally-bred performance with everyday usability. At 40,156 miles, this example represents excellent value for a buyer who wants performance without a new-car premium.
How many miles is too many for a used WRX STI?
With proper maintenance, WRX STI engines and drivetrains are known to last well beyond 100,000 miles. At 40,156 miles, this 2020 STI is well within the range where a buyer can expect many years of reliable, high-performance ownership. Maintenance history and how the car was driven matter more than mileage alone — this is a relatively low-mileage example for its age.
What does the WRX STI trim include over the base WRX?
The STI trim adds a 2.5L high-boost turbocharged engine (vs. the WRX's 2.0L), Brembo brakes, Recaro front seats, Bilstein suspension, a driver-controlled center differential (DCCD), BBS wheels, a larger rear wing, and a flat-bottom steering wheel. It's a comprehensive performance package, not just a visual upgrade.
Is the WRX STI good in snow and rain?
The Subaru WRX STI was literally developed through decades of World Rally Championship competition in some of the worst weather conditions on earth. Its symmetrical AWD system with the DCCD provides exceptional traction in rain, snow, and mixed conditions — making it a natural fit for Pacific Northwest driving, including the seasonal road conditions around Yakima and the surrounding mountain passes.
Does the WRX STI require premium fuel?
Yes. The 2020 WRX STI's high-boost turbocharged engine requires 91 octane or higher premium fuel to operate at its designed performance level and protect internal components. Using regular fuel regularly can cause knock and reduce both power and long-term reliability.
