2022 Subaru BRZ unveiled
Subaru has revealed the all-new second-generation BRZ, which promises to offer more performance and improved dynamics compared to its predecessor.
Power for this 2+2 rear-wheel drive sports car is still provided by naturally-aspirated, four-cylinder boxer engine.
However, capacity has grown from 2.0 to 2.4 litres, so peak output and torque become 228 bhp (170 kW / 231 PS) at 7,000 rpm and 250 Nm (184 lb-ft) at 3,700 rpm respectively. As before, customers are going to have a choice of six-speed manual or automatic transmissions.
Several factors should benefit the handling. They include a lower centre of gravity, a stiffer bodyshell (torsional rigidity is up by 50 percent) and a kerb weight that can be as little as 2,815 lb (1,276 kg).
‘Premium’ and ‘Limited’ trim grades will be available in the United States, where sales are due to begin in early autumn 2021.
Among the proposed items of standard equipment are a limited-slip rear differential, five-setting Vehicle Stability Control, a configurable 7” TFT digital instrument cluster, a rear-view camera, and a central 8” infotainment touchscreen.
Unfortunately, Subaru isn’t currently planning to bring the 2022 BRZ to the UK.
