15 photos to decide if you prefer the Subaru BRZ over the Toyota GR86

The second-generation Subaru BRZ was unveiled in late-2020. It continued the tradition of a front-engine, rear-wheel drive sports car with relatively low weight and low centre of gravity.

Before we continue, we’d like to extend our gratitude to Motion Beyond (Subaru Setia Alam) for the hospitality and making this photoshoot possible.

The 6-speed automatic variant gets Subaru’s EyeSight ADAS system along with Reverse Automatic Braking.

Standard equipment for both variants of the Subaru BRZ include 18-inch wheels, Torsen Limited Slip Differential, and 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system that supports Apple CarPlay/Android Auto.

Power comes from a 2.4-litre boxer engine that makes 237 PS/250 Nm, mated to the aforementioned 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic transmission, going exclusively to the rear wheels (RWD).

0-100 km/h acceleration time is rated at 6.3 seconds for the manual and 6.8 seconds for the automatic.

We were told that total bookings for the Subaru BRZ currently stands at around 80 units, 10 of which were from Motion Beyond. This unit that you see here has already been spoken for but if you’re keen on one, they would be more than happy to slot you in.

Yesterday’s tabling of Budget 2024 proposed for the current service tax rate of 6 percent to be increased to 8 percent.
