Sports Car Exhilaration Comes Standard for the Carson City Drive in the New Subaru BRZ

There are performance coupes, then there's the Subaru BRZ. Back for a new model year, smaller and lighter-weight than before, atop a long wheelbase with wide front and rear tracks and rear-wheel drivetrain, and just 4.9 inches off the pavement, it says one thing above all: I'm sleek, fast, and fun to drive. As new sports cars in the Carson City area go, it's even ahead of the pack on creature comforts and tech. See for yourself -- check out its Premium and Limited trims right here at Michael Hohl Subaru!

Power and Performance Features

Every Subaru BRZ comes standard with a 205-horsepower, 2.0-liter SUBARU BOXER engine, its quickness assured by 156 pound-feet of torque. Mated to a fully synchronized six-speed transmission, it's of wide appeal to the hands-on crowd. If you prefer ease of use, go with the available 200-horsepower, 2.0-liter engine, paired with an equally available six-speed auto transmission.

Performance enhancements may range as widely as the prospects for a cruise: a four-wheel independent suspension's standard, while a TORSEN limited-slip rear differential and a Performance Package featuring SACHS dampers and more are available. However, the car's just as efficient with fuel as it is a blast: count on up to 21 mpg in a city like South Lake Tahoe and 29 mpg on the highway to Minden, according to EPA estimates.

Interior Features and Technology

With standard cloth seating that's available heated, an Alcantara-and-leather-trimmed option in select trims, available dual-zone auto climate control, a leather-wrapped three-spoke steering wheel, leather-trimmed shifter, and available paddle shifters, there's no doubt Subaru BRZ is accommodating for a Truckee road trip. It gets even better when you see the tech at your fingertips.

Sport-inspired gauges give way to a choice between two SUBARU STARLINK infotainment systems -- 6.2- and 7.0-inch models. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are likewise available to extend dash connectivity and access to your smartphone, while optional dual USB ports keep everything energized. Pandora, iHeart Radio, Stitcher, and Aha app support, SiriusXM compatibility, and a built-in HD Radio offer plenty of listening options as you find your way around locales like Gardnerville using available integrated TomTom navigation.

Safety and Driver-Assist Features

Above all, Subaru BRZ is geared to keep you and your fellow riders secure down the road. Vehicle stability and traction control systems ensure an even keel, while standard four-wheel anti-lock brakes and brake assist or available Brembo performance brakes deliver stopping power you can depend on. There's even a tire pressure monitoring system standard, alongside the redundant layers of protection afforded by an advanced Subaru airbag system.
