Subaru BRZ Overview
“Two heads are better than one” – That is the wisdom behind the success of the BRZ, Subaru’s small yet very capable sports coupe. The BRZ (Boxer-Engine Rear-Wheel-Drive Zenith) has become one of the most spotlighted nameplates in the Japanese automaker’s fleet. The BRZ, along with its Toyota GR86 twin, takes the battle against the Mazda Miata in the affordable rear-wheel drive sportscar segment. Apart from its mean-looking front end, the BRZ’s general exterior/interior layout, design, and components are almost identical to the GR86 because these two cars were the brainchildren of a collaborative effort between Subaru and Toyota, which aims to create a very capable canyon-carving machine in less than the price and production cost of a single-brand-exclusive unit, making them among one of the most affordable thrill-rides in the market. Under the hood is a 2.4-liter Subaru Boxer Engine now placed lower and closer to the driver. This delivers power to its rear wheels, while mated to a six-speed automatic or manual transmission. This compact sports coupe has 233 hp and 250 Nm of torque which makes it a quicker and more agile machine compared to the last generation.
- Launch
-
The new Subaru BRZ was launched at the 2022 Manila International Auto Show and was displayed alongside the new Subaru Forester during the event. Only the automatic version of the vehicle was displayed at the event, but the launch did state that the sports car would be available as either an automatic or manual transmission.
The BRZ nameplate made its debut in the Philippines back in 2012, almost the same time as the launch of its Toyota 86 twin. It was available in both an automatic and manual transmission.
- Platform, Chassis and Powertrain
-
Under the hood, the new Subaru BRZ is now being powered by a much bigger 2.4-liter boxer engine. It now develops 233 hp and 250 Nm of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels via either a six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic transmission. With its new powerplant, the sports car can now rocket to 100 km/h in around 6.8 seconds. It has disc brakes all around and rides on 18-inch wheels with 215/40/18 series tires.

The Subaru BRZ carries an eight-inch infotainment system that comes with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capabilities. On top of this, the vehicle also comes with a configurable digital display for its gauge cluster.
Automatic versions of the BRZ will get the Subaru Eyesight which includes a driver monitoring system, steering responsive headlights, high beam assist, EyeSight assist monitor, reverse automatic braking, multi-view monitor system, Subaru Rear Vehicle Detection System, and also a multi-view monitor system.
- Exterior
-
The Subaru BRZ comes with even sleeker styling than before giving the vehicle access to more advanced features. This means that the sports car now has LED headlights, LED rear combination lamps, power-folding mirrors, engine, transmission and floor undercover, front bumper ducts, side skill spoil, rear arch fin, and a rear diffuser, along with twin tail mufflers.
The all-new packaging also means that the engine is much closer to the center of the vehicle, meaning more space for added functional air ducts and aero elements that help direct airflow for a stable drive.
This all-new styling also gives the BRZ a much more athletic stance than before.
- Interior
-
In pursuit of an unadulterated driving experience, the BRZ comes with interior comforts that you need to enjoy the drive and nothing you don’t. The infotainment can easily be reached, especially with a menu that is easy to navigate. The steering wheel has the right chunkiness and size for proper grip areas when taking a corner, and everything around you is within an arm’s reach. The interior is adorned with leather, and the addition of Alcantara for the semi-bucket seats helps keep you in place.
- Safety
-
For safety, the Subaru BRZ comes with front SRS airbags, side SRS airbags for the driver and front passenger, curtain airbags, knee airbags, and a rearview camera, along with reverse automatic braking. Should you opt for the automatic transmission, the brand's EyeSight technology comes as standard, which gives it access to features such as adaptive cruise control, lane swap and lane departure warnings, pre-collision braking, pre-collision throttle management, and a lead vehicle start alert. It also comes with vehicle stability control, sport, snow, and track drive modes along with hill start assist and a Torsen LSD.

2023 Subaru BR-Z Review | The Spry Daily Driver's Car / Video Review
One of the questions we had in this review was "can you daily drive a two door sports car?" We've tested a bunch in the past but the BR-Z not only has great handling on its side, but also few practical elements that you can actually get behind the wheel of. So in this episode of Behind the Wheel, Caco gets a little tail happy with this two-door. Watch as we turn a few corners, stuff Caco in the back, and tell you whether the BR-Z is the perfect everyday and every-man (or woman) sports car.
