The new Subaru WRX has been spotted in Malaysia! Thanks to reader Rosman Fitri, we have these photos of a JPJ evaluation unit in TTDI Jaya. It's likely a WRX and not a WRX STI, as we don't see an STI badge on the front grille.

So under its bonnet should lurk a 268 PS/350 Nm 2.0 litre direct-injected flat-four, with six-speed manual and Sport Lineartronic CVT gearboxes to choose from. Its more hardcore WRX STI sibling is powered by a 300 PS/407 Nm 2.5 litre multi port-injected flat-four, and only comes with a six-speed manual.

The fourth-gen Subaru WRX and WRX STI only recently received their regional launch in Manila. They're expected to be available in Malaysia from July onwards. Learn more about the hot Scooby pair here.
