Executive Summary:
Release date at Planet Subaru: spring of calendar year 2024.The 2022 model was all new, the first
since 2013, which is why there are no big changes so early in the product cycle. However, Subaru introduced a new trim level for 2024, the tS model. Read on for more about that.
Every 2024 BRZ is powered by a 2.4-liter (naturally aspirated) 228-hp
SUBARU BOXER® engine paired with a six-speed close-ratio manual
transmission or a six-speed electronic direct-control automatic
transmission driving the rear wheels. For 2024, the BRZ is offered in
three trim levels: Premium, Limited and tS.
For the first time, Subaru's award-winning EyeSight Driver Assist Technology is standard across the BRZ model line, including vehicles equipped with a manual transmission. The advanced safety system includes adaptive cruise control, pre-collision braking system, lane departure and sway warning, and lead vehicle start alert.
BRZ Premium
The 2024 BRZ Premium, priced at $30,195, comes equipped with an extensive list of standard features including Keyless Access with Push-Button Start; LED headlights (low- and high-beam); dual-zone automatic climate control; Incline Start Assist; power locks including fuel-door lock; power windows with auto up/down and pinch protection; Welcome Lighting; 17-inch alloy wheels in a dark gray finish; TORSEN® limited-slip rear differential; and Vehicle Stability Control with Track Mode.
The BRZ's tire pressure monitoring system allows two sets of wheels to be ID-registered. This enables the owner to conveniently switch to seasonal tires mounted on a second set of wheels instead of changing the tires on the original wheels. Standard Active Sound Control enhances engine sound within the cabin for a more engaging driving experience.
The latest generation BRZ blends sleek styling and classic sports car proportions that are as impressive as its handling prowess. The overall impression is modern, agile, and quick, with focused and functional aerodynamic details. The tidy coupe design cuts through the air with a low and wide frontal area set off by large functional air intakes and a low grille capped with proud fender arches that allow just enough room for suspension points. At the rear of the car, the large rear fenders and wide track flow into dual exhausts for a low and wide stance. This visual heft is lightened by a narrow greenhouse and rear decklid that flows into a dramatic upturned "ducktail" rear spoiler.
The cockpit in the sports car focuses on the driver without sacrificing passenger comfort. The clean and intuitive layout makes instruments and controls easily visible and accessible. Designed to resemble Subaru's iconic BOXER engine, the 7-inch digital instrument panel displays the tachometer front and center with vehicle information on each side.
Flanking the tachometer on the left, a programmable meter can display amps, coolant temperature or lateral-G. When Track Mode is selected, the tachometer switches from a traditional circular form to a linear graph with a color display.
Inside, the cabin is wrapped in black upholstery with contrasting red stitching on the front seat bolsters, leather-wrapped steering wheel, shifter boot, and parking brake boot. Performance-design front seats with height-adjustable head restraints are also standard.
While its primary mission is connecting the driver to the road, the 2024 BRZ also connects occupants to the digital world with the SUBARU STARLINK® 8.0-inch Multimedia Plus infotainment system. Standard for all trim levels, the system features an Integrated Center Information Display that includes smartphone integration with Apple CarPlay® and Android™ Auto; Bluetooth® hands-free phone connectivity and audio streaming; rear vision camera; and SiriusXM® services.
The 2024 BRZ Premium is available exclusively with a six-speed close-ratio manual transmission.

Subaru
developed the all-new BRZ with the same fundamentals of sports car
design that it used to create the original: low vehicle weight, an
ultra-low center of gravity with precision steering and handling in an
affordable 2+2 package. The BRZ features
more power, better handling, improved styling, a 50-percent increase in
torsional stiffness and a modern interior. A pure sports car with Subaru
DNA.
Running counter to the current trend of power over precision, the Subaru BRZ focuses on simplicity and fun. Designed to deliver an unmatched driving experience, the all-new BRZ features a new and more powerful 228 horsepower 2.4-liter horizontally opposed engine. Sitting low in the chassis, the Subaru BOXER's unique design allows the BRZ to achieve a Center of Gravity (CoG) even lower than the previous BRZ and on par with exotic hyper-cars. The ultra-low CoG is critical to delivering unrivaled handling, with a low polar moment and quick reaction to driver inputs. The 2.4-liter naturally aspirated engine redlines at 7,000 RPM and delivers a 15-percent increase in torque. The 2022 BRZ will be offered in both Premium and Limited trims and is available with two transmission choices; a standard six-speed manual or an available six-speed automatic with a new Sport mode designed for more aggressive driving. The new Sport mode allows for more rapid downshifts with automatic throttle blipping and utilizes yaw sensors to hold the transmission in a lower gear during hard cornering to maximize performance.
Clever and Modern Design
Despite its sporting intentions, the Subaru BRZ does not sacrifice everyday comfort and practicality. The 2+2 seating and folding rear seats create a useful cargo area that has space for carrying a mountain bike, golf clubs, or even four race tires and tools for track days. Utilizing aluminum for the roof, front fenders and hood, the 2022 Subaru BRZ has an estimated curb weight of just under 2,900 lbs., delivering on its promise of accessible performance.
The BRZ's bold new styling is as impressive as its handling prowess. The overall impression is modern, agile and powerful, with focused and functional aerodynamic details. The tidy coupe design is just over an inch longer and almost half an inch lower than its predecessor, resulting in a low and wide frontal area set off by large functional air intakes. The grille is set low and is capped by proud fender arches that allow just enough room for suspension points. A narrowed greenhouse accentuates the bold fender flares and the roofline features a subtle "double bubble" appearance, a nod to vintage racing cars.
The aggressive design flows into bold front fenders with a large side vent. The functional side vent reduces drag by ducting air from under the hood and fenders. The released air is directed to a side sill spoiler that creates downforce at speed. A small fin at the back of the rear-wheel arch also assists in airflow adding stability at speed. At the rear of the car, the large rear fenders and wider track flow into dual exhausts for a low and wide stance. This visual heft is lightened by a narrower greenhouse and rear hatch which flow into a dramatic upturned "ducktail" rear spoiler.
Driver Focused Interior
The Subaru BRZ features a new interior with every detail focused on the driver. A new customizable 7-inch digital dashboard is the focal point with the tachometer front and center featuring an integrated digital speedometer readout. To the left of the tachometer is a programmable meter that can change to show amps, water temperature or a g-meter, once again emphasizing the BRZ's performance capability. When the BRZ is placed in track mode, the tachometer automatically shifts to a linear graph with a color display that allows for a quick read allowing the driver to focus on the road.
The overall cabin design is contemporary and modular with improved driver amenities. The 8-inch infotainment touch screen takes precedence in the center stack and features the latest SUBARU STARLINK™ multimedia systems, including standard smartphone integration with Apple CarPlay™ and Android ™ Auto, as well as Bluetooth® hands-free phone connectivity and audio streaming, rear vision camera and SiriusXM® services. Limited trims feature telematics and vehicles equipped with the six-speed automatic transmission also feature Subaru's EyeSight Driver Assist Technology.
In keeping with its sports car dynamics, the BRZ seating position is low, but features excellent sight lines due to use of high strength steel in the A, B and C -pillars, keeping them thin but strong. Deeply contoured bucket seats provide support and are enhanced with red detail stitching. The folding rear seats and spacious rear cargo area round out a comfortable and practical interior.
Chassis
Featuring a bespoke chassis, the BRZ takes full advantage of its ultra-low center of gravity and high-strength body structure. With a 101.4-inch wheelbase and near perfect weight distribution, the Subaru BRZ is nimble and easy to control. The front suspension uses struts and coil springs to keep weight low. Using design elements from the Subaru Global Platform, the chassis has gained rigidity through a reinforced chassis mounting system, sub-frame architecture and other connection points. Front lateral bending rigidity has been increased by 60-percent for the 2022 model to improve turn-in and response. The front suspension features custom-designed MacPherson-type struts to optimize the low hood line while retaining a long stroke for ideal handling and ride quality. The double wishbone rear suspension system provides outstanding bump absorption to enhance tire grip over varied surfaces.
For track driving, the standard Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) traction and stability system offers the driver five different settings. The system has been redesigned to allow more input from the driver before it activates the traction system. The system can be turned completely off to put the driver in full control.
Production of the Subaru BRZ is at Subaru's Gunma, Japan assembly plant.
