In certain variants, the system extends its customisation to auto-adjusting the driver's seat and door mirror positions². The Subaru WRX AWD tS and WRX Sportswagon AWD tS models further enrich the driving experience with the Drive Mode Select memory function. ¹Driver Monitoring System (DMS) is not available on Subaru WRX AWD standard manual and Sport Lineartronic® transmission.

Central to Subaru's safety ethos is the enhancement of driver visibility, a principle that steered the design trajectory of the Subaru WRX. Modifications around the A-pillar and C-pillar blind spots have been made to boost visibility, aiding drivers in swiftly and effortlessly spotting potential hazards, particularly while manoeuvring through tight corners or bustling parking areas. While Subaru may not have command over every road variable, the incorporation of eight SRS airbags in the Subaru WRX, inclusive of the front passenger seat cushion airbag, serves as a mitigative measure to lessen the likelihood of severe injuries during significant mishaps.
