FUEL
• For WRX, use premium unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 91 AKI or higher. If
91 AKI fuel is not readily available, regular unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of
87 AKI or higher may be temporarily used. However, depending on your driving habits
and conditions, you may notice a decrease in engine performance, fuel economy and
slight engine vibration or knocking. Consult the Owner’s Manual for more detailed
information.
• For WRX STI, use premium unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 93 AKI or higher.
If 93 AKI fuel is not readily available in your area, premium unleaded gasoline with an
octane rating of 91 AKI may be used with no detriment to engine durability or
driveability. However, you may notice a slight decrease in maximum engine performance
while using 91 AKI fuel. Consult the Owner’s Manual for more detailed information.
• Do not use fuels with more than 10% ethanol. See the Owner’s Manual for more
information.
