Mississauga, Ontario – Subaru Canada has unveiled the next generation of the BRZ sports car in an announcement from Wednesday, expanding on the fundamentals of low-weight and low centre-of-gravity established on the original.
The 2022 BRZ is built on a 2+2 coupe platform with a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive configuration, held together by lightweight aluminum parts and a newly redesigned chassis.
A larger engine than before also comes standard on the new BRZ, boasting a 2.4L SUBARU BOXER® engine that produces 228 horsepower at 7,000 RPM and 184 lb-ft of torque (15 per cent increase from the previous generation).
Convenience has also become a key priority for Subaru in its redesign of the BRZ, now featuring an eight-inch touchscreen infotainment system that offers seamless integration with Apple CarPlay™ and Android ™ Auto, as well as Bluetooth® hands-free phone connectivity and audio streaming, rearview camera and SiriusXM® satellite radio.
The 2022 BRZ will be offered in two trims levels, each with an option for manual or automatic transmissions. Production will take place at Subaru’s Gunma, Japan assembly plant.
