In its next iteration, the Subaru WRX STI—as well as its more civilian WRX brethren—could reportedly abandon its current four-door body style to bring back the coupe format not seen since the rally-inspired car's first generation.
Japan's Best Car claims the new two-door WRX could use an updated version of the current 2.0-liter turbo power plant, the FA20.
It will reportedly use an improved version of Subaru's performance all-wheel-drive system, upgraded with the help of Toyota.
Though Subaru has committed to building all near-future models on the Subaru Global Platform or "SGP," which platform the WRX and STI will use remains uncertain.
It too will reportedly feature AWD and could be based on the new generation of Toyota Yaris.
