What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Subaru WRX?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base trim is the most stripped-down version, while Sport and Sport-tech add more equipment and a more polished feel. The base trim misses some of the convenience and safety features that make the higher trims easier to live with.
• Powertrain: You can choose between a 2.4-litre turbo Boxer engine with a six-speed manual or a CVT called the Subaru Performance Transmission. The manual uses continuous AWD split 50/50 front to rear, while the CVT uses variable torque distribution.
• Safety package: EyeSight comes standard on CVT-equipped models and includes automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, lane-tracing assist, an electronic brake booster, and automatic steering assist. Manual models do not get EyeSight. Blind-spot monitoring, lane-change assist, and rear cross-traffic alert are standard on Sport and Sport-tech trims, but not on the base trim.
• Infotainment: Sport-trim and higher models get an 11.6-inch tablet-style touchscreen. The base trim uses two stacked 7-inch displays instead. Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are supported, but the integration is not equally polished.
• Fuel efficiency: Natural Resources Canada rates the manual at 12.3 L/100 km in city driving, 9.0 L/100 km on the highway, and 10.8 L/100 km combined. The CVT is rated at 12.7 L/100 km city, 9.4 L/100 km highway, and 11.2 L/100 km combined.

Which 2022 Subaru WRX trim should I buy?

The 2022 Subaru WRX is offered in 3 trim levels: base, Sport, and Sport-tech.

Here's the short version:

• base: This is the entry point if you want the WRX’s core performance and all-wheel-drive character at the lowest price. Just know that it misses the extra safety features found higher up the range, and its infotainment setup is less impressive than the larger screen in Sport and Sport-tech.
• Sport: This is the best-value trim for most shoppers because it adds the 11.6-inch touchscreen and the safety equipment that the base trim lacks. It also gets the external transmission-fluid cooler, and it strikes the best balance between equipment and price.
• Sport-tech: Choose this if you want the most fully equipped WRX and are willing to pay for it. It builds on Sport with the top-end feature set and is the trim to target if you want the most premium version of the car.

EyeSight is standard on CVT-equipped models, while manual models do not get it.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Subaru WRX?

The market looks moderate for selective buyers, so it makes sense to compare listings carefully and move quickly on the right car.

• Deal availability: 32.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 140 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 6.32% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $28,889 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 Subaru WRX's resale value?

The current average of $29,723 CAD sits slightly below last year's $31,728 CAD.

That softer pricing suggests the market has become a bit more buyer-friendly, which can work against a future seller if you buy at the wrong time. On the other hand, it also means you may be entering ownership at a more reasonable price point than shoppers faced a year ago. If demand stays steady, a well-kept WRX with the right trim and transmission should remain easier to move than a less distinctive compact sedan.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.9/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2022 Subaru WRX safe?

The 2022 Subaru WRX earns a five-star overall rating from NHTSA.

It earns a 5/10 safety score from our experts.

EyeSight is Subaru’s standard driver-assistance suite on CVT-equipped models, and it includes automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, lane-tracing assist, an electronic brake booster, and automatic steering assist. Manual models do not get EyeSight, and blind-spot monitoring, lane-change assist, and rear cross-traffic alert are standard only on Sport and Sport-tech trims. The Subaru Global Platform also improves crash energy absorption, and the car comes with seven airbags, including a driver’s-side knee airbag.

Should I buy a 2022 Subaru WRX or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 32.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 6.32% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.9/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• Subaru’s updated platform and improved technology make this year feel more polished than the previous generation.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $31,506 CAD, the 2023 costs more than the current year's $29,723 CAD average.
• It carries over unchanged from the 2022 redesign.

The bottom line: If you want the better value, the 2022 is the smarter buy because it delivers the current-generation WRX experience at a lower average price. If you are willing to pay more for a newer model year with the same basic package, the 2023 is the simpler choice, but price-sensitive buyers should focus on the 2022.
