Pros: The Subaru BRZ, like its clone the Scion FR-S, is the product of a partnership between Toyota and Subaru. Steady on the road with sharp steering, this great looking two-seater is remarkably easy to handle. Indeed, the car really shines on the track, with enveloping seats and an extremely sensitive suspension. However, the suspension is unforgiving when riding on bad roads, which is the standard in Quebec…
Cons: At first glance, the interior is a little disappointing. The dashboard is very bare and hard plastic makes up most the finishing. With its extreme behaviour, the sports might be tiresome to drive day-to-day. While the engine’s torque shortage translates into sluggish acceleration, the car also lacks overall comfort.
2015 Subaru BRZ Price: The 2015 Subaru BRZ is offered in three trims: the basic at $27,395, the BRZ Sport-Tech at $29,395 and the Aozora at $31,395.
Fuel Economy: In all trims, the manual 2015 is rated at 10.9 L/100 km in the city and 7.9 L/100 on the highway. For the automatic, it’s 9.6 L/100 in the city and 7 L/100 on the highway.
Improvements and Changes: No significant changes have been brought to the 2015 Subaru BRZ.
2015 Subaru BRZ Powertrain: The 2015 BRZ boasts a 4-cylinder, 2-litre, naturally aspirated DOHC that generates 200 horsepower and a moderate 151 lb-ft of torque. The engine is mated either with a manual transmission or a 6-speed automatic with paddle shift mode on the steering wheel.
Cargo Capacity: Since the 2015 Subaru BRZ is a sporty two-seater, you can’t expect much trunk room. In fact, the BRZ, like Scion’s FR-S, can barely fit 196 litres.
Safety: In terms of safety, the 2015 Subaru offers ABS brakes, brake assist as well as electronic brake force distribution, dynamic stability control and traction control.
Comparing the 2015 Subaru BRZ: The Honda Civic SI, the Hyundai Genesis coupe and the Scion FR-S are just a few cars to check out in this sports segment.
