Exclusive Design and Limited Production

The 2026 Subaru WRX Series Yellow commands attention with its vibrant Sunrise Yellow finish — a color steeped in Subaru’s motorsport legacy and previously showcased on rare models like the WRX STI S207. This eye-catching hue ensures it stands apart on the streets of Atlantic Beach or the parking lots of Orange Park’s weekend events. Complementing this bright exterior are matte black 19-inch alloy wheels wrapped in high-performance Bridgestone Potenza S007 tires, designed to deliver optimal grip and handling precision.

Subtle black exterior trim and exclusive badging reinforce the Series Yellow’s unique identity, making it unmistakable at a glance. With only 350 units produced nationwide, this limited-run edition appeals to enthusiasts and collectors alike who appreciate exclusivity and heritage. The matte black accents provide a striking contrast to the yellow paint, underscoring the WRX’s aggressive, performance-focused character.

For Jacksonville drivers, this combination of bold aesthetics and limited availability means owning a piece of Subaru’s rally-inspired history. Whether you’re cruising through the urban streets of St. Marys or heading out for a coastal drive near Ponte Vedra Beach, the Series Yellow is built to turn heads while delivering unmatched driving thrills.

Powertrain and Performance Specifications

At the core of the 2026 WRX Series Yellow lies the 2.4-liter SUBARU BOXER® turbocharged flat-four engine, a powerhouse engineered for spirited driving and daily reliability. This engine produces a robust 271 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque, offering a balanced blend of power and responsiveness. The choice of a horizontally opposed (BOXER®) layout contributes to a low center of gravity, enhancing stability and cornering agility, which Jacksonville drivers will appreciate navigating the varied terrain from Middleburg to Neptune Beach.

Exclusively paired with a 6-speed manual transmission, the Series Yellow embraces purist driving engagement, delivering precise control and a connected feel behind the wheel. Subaru’s renowned Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system ensures that power is intelligently distributed to all four wheels, providing confident handling in wet or dry conditions alike—a crucial advantage for drivers coping with Jacksonville’s seasonal rains.

Performance is further elevated by the STI-tuned suspension, featuring electronically controlled adjustable dampers that balance crisp handling with ride comfort. This suspension setup, along with Brembo high-performance brakes, equips the WRX Series Yellow to handle everything from tight city corners in Jacksonville Beach to spirited drives along coastal highways near Kingsland.

Horsepower and Torque: What Drives the 2026 WRX?

The 2026 WRX’s engine output of 271 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque positions it competitively within the compact sports sedan segment. This power level strikes a balance that offers thrilling acceleration without sacrificing everyday usability, ideal for Jacksonville commuters and weekend explorers alike.

To put these figures into perspective, the WRX’s power allows it to accelerate briskly from 0 to 60 mph in roughly 5.5 seconds, depending on road conditions and driver input. This quick response is enhanced by the direct throttle feel of the manual transmission, connecting driver intent to the road with immediacy. The flat-four engine’s torque peak provides strong mid-range performance, essential for quick overtakes on busy highways near Yulee or Ponte Vedra Beach.

When compared to competitors like the Toyota GR Corolla or Hyundai Elantra N, the WRX holds its own in terms of power delivery and overall driving experience. Moreover, Subaru’s AWD system gives it an edge in traction and stability, especially in Florida’s unpredictable weather.

Potential buyers prioritizing performance should consider how this horsepower and torque pairing delivers not only speed but also control—a key feature for navigating Jacksonville’s diverse driving environments, from urban streets to coastal highways.

Inside the 2026 WRX Series Yellow, performance meets comfort with a driver-centric cabin that emphasizes both style and functionality.

The seats feature perforated surfaces with yellow accents, enhancing breathability and tactile appeal during longer journeys, whether commuting around St. Marys or heading to outdoor adventures in Atlantic Beach. This combination of aesthetics and ergonomics ensures drivers and passengers remain comfortable and secure.

Technology is front and center with an 11.6-inch Subaru Multimedia touchscreen, offering seamless access to navigation, entertainment, and smartphone integration through wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™. This system keeps drivers connected while maintaining focus on the road.

A 12.3-inch fully digital gauge cluster provides customizable performance readouts, including turbo boost levels, vehicle dynamics, and fuel efficiency data, enabling drivers to stay informed and engaged.
