Subaru announced the latest addition to its sports family, the WRX Project Midnight, which represents the most powerful racing car in the history of Subaru WRX with 670 horsepower.
Unfortunately, this car is a prototype, as Subaru intends to showcase it at the British Festival of Speed soon, and there are no plans to produce it or transfer its technologies to other models.
Engine and Capabilities of the New Subaru WRX
The WRX Project Midnight features a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 670 horsepower and 920 Newton-meters of torque. These figures are impressive for an engine of this size, equipped with all-wheel drive, 18-inch wheels, and a redline of 9500 RPM.
The car's weight has been reduced by approximately 454 kilograms compared to the standard Subaru WRX. Although Subaru did not provide specific details, it is likely that extensive use of carbon fiber has been implemented, aiding the car's competitive edge at the Goodwood Festival.
However, all these figures remain theoretical, as Subaru has confirmed that there are no intentions to produce a commercial version of this vehicle, at least for now.
Senior Writer The quest for automotive knowledge began as soon as the earliest memories. Various sources information, even questionable ones, have been explored including video games, television, magazines, or even internet forums. Still stuck in that rabbit hole.
