  • Sport Compact cars are typically aimed at a specific crowd however they've evolved considerably over the years, and not so much. Despite being priced under $1,000 apart, the new 2022 Subaru WRX and 2022 Volkswagen Jetta GLI could not be more different even though they have common goals.

    around 7:50 into the Video you stated the WRX has a 2 liter Engine, but it is a 2.4 Liter.........I know that you know this, but you don't want to confuse your viewers. Keep up the great content!

    I know a lot of people are going to hate me for saying this, but I swear man! When I see that wrx, it resembles the Toyota corolla so much! To me, it looks like a high school kid, just got his license and he got a hold of mom's 4 door corolla, and threw a body kit that looks like a total afterthought on the wrx.
    The dash screen also looks so awkward. That screen looks hideous! It's for sure a total afterthought that they, last mili-second, threw on the dash, as the car was rolling down the assembly line and about to enter the dash assembly area. Lololol.
    It's just totally an awkward looking car with a Toyota corolla ground effects kit and a Subaru badge slapped on the front and back as a dare or a joke - knowing that it will appeal to high school kids. 😂

    For those of us who would drive this through a real Canadian winter (6 months of snow) all wheel drive with winter tires would make the Subaru the better a good choice over the GLI. I have owned a GTI but there were some weeks I could not get out of my unplowed residential neighbourhood with the GTI. Admittedly that had more to do with ground clearance than traction.

    Jetta in blue is definitely the worst color they offer. The cheesy red vents just make it worse.
    Bought one in black. And got rid of basically all the red except callipers and a couple gli badges. Looks 100x better overall. Especially with tint.
    Wish it was awd but have some studded winter tires and honestly , it’s more confidence inspiring to drive in blizzard/ ice than my ram with all seasons / 4wd
    Especially on ice.
    And 6 speed can’t beat it for the fun factor even if it isn’t the fastest car out there

    Had a wrx. Rides like crap. Paint is thin. Awd is good with decent tires. Gas mileage is terrible. Gli is a smoother Ride. Wrx is a police magnet especially in red.

    2022 WRX isn't a 2.0l. It's a 2.5l. Also, he's mistaken about it being a replacement for the 2014-2015 model year.
