Subaru Australia has reported that its allocation of 500 all-new (Model Year 2022) BRZ sports cars has sold out.

Due to arrive in the country this month, the BRZ (which was originally jointly developed with Toyota which sells its version as the Toyota 86) is powered by Subaru’s new naturally aspirated 2.4-litre direct and port injection four-cylinder horizontally opposed Boxer engine and is available in two variants – BRZ Coupe and BRZ Coupe S – both with the choice of six-speed manual or six-speed paddle-shift automatic transmission.

Subaru says the new engine delivers almost 18 per cent more torque than the previous manual model and over 20 per cent more torque than the outgoing automatic.
The company also says that the model’s new body delivers approximately 60 per cent greater front lateral bending rigidity and approximately 50 per cent more torsional stiffness.

On the inside, there’s a digital instrument cluster and an 8-inch multimedia infotainment system which includes standard smartphone integration with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Models equipped with 18-inch aluminium alloy wheels feature Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tyres.

“We are delighted by the reception for the all-new Subaru BRZ,” said Blair Read, General Manager Subaru Australia.

“The number of Australian customers already eagerly awaiting delivery to their driveway is testament to the great package the Subaru engineers have delivered with the next generation BRZ.”

The BRZ Coupe Manual has a Manufacturer’s List Price of $38,990, while the Coupe Auto is set at $42,790. The price for the Coupe S Manual is $40,190, while the Coupe S Auto is set at $43,990.
