What is the 0-100 km/h acceleration time of the BRZ?
2 Answers
The 0-100 km/h acceleration time of the BRZ is 7.6 seconds. The BRZ is a Subaru model, specifically a compact sports car. Its engine delivers a maximum power output of 147 kW and a peak torque of 205 Nm. The vehicle comes equipped with features such as brake force distribution, brake assist, traction control, electronic stability control, knee airbags, tire pressure monitoring, front/rear parking sensors, and child seat anchors. The Subaru BRZ features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a double-wishbone rear suspension, with rear-wheel drive configuration and a minimum ground clearance of 130mm. The car measures 4240mm in length, 1775mm in width, and 1320mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2570mm. It is paired with a 6-speed manual transmission and offers a trunk capacity of 243L.
The BRZ's 0-100 km/h acceleration time typically ranges from 7 to 8 seconds, depending on the specific model and drivetrain configuration. Having driven the manual transmission BRZ several times, I find the initial acceleration quite punchy – thanks to its 2.4L horizontally opposed engine and rear-wheel-drive layout that delivers power more directly. If you prioritize driving engagement, the manual version is about a few tenths of a second quicker than the automatic. For daily driving, while not lightning-fast compared to some pure EVs that can hit 4 seconds, its acceleration is sufficient for highway overtakes or city starts without feeling sluggish. The BRZ emphasizes balanced performance rather than outright speed, focusing on driving pleasure. Under stock configuration without tire or exhaust modifications, these acceleration figures are reliable. Note that cooler ambient temperatures can make acceleration smoother. Regular spark plug checks are recommended as worn plugs may cause delays. Overall, the BRZ's acceleration reflects its affordable sports car positioning – delivering exceptional fun-to-drive character with great value for money.
