What is the 0-100 km/h acceleration time of the BRZ?
1 Answers
According to Subaru's official specifications, the Subaru BRZ with a manual transmission has a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 7.6 seconds, while the automatic transmission version accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 8.2 seconds. Factors affecting a vehicle's 0-100 km/h acceleration time include: Torque: Torque generally represents the strength of force. The greater the torque, the stronger the force pushing the vehicle, resulting naturally in faster acceleration. The Subaru BRZ has a maximum torque of 205 N·m, while the Subaru Outback has a maximum torque of 229 N·m. Transmission efficiency: The transmission serves as the medium for power transfer, inevitably involving power loss. Higher transmission efficiency leads to better acceleration performance. Generally, transmission efficiency ranks as follows: manual transmission > dry dual-clutch transmission > wet dual-clutch transmission > AT transmission > CVT transmission. The Subaru BRZ uses a 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic transmission, while the Subaru Outback uses a CVT transmission. Power-to-weight ratio: The relationship between horsepower and vehicle weight is called the power-to-weight ratio (unit: Hp/T). A higher power-to-weight ratio results in faster acceleration. The Subaru BRZ has a power-to-weight ratio of 161 Hp/T and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 7.6 seconds, while the Subaru Outback has a power-to-weight ratio of 107 Hp/T and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 10.87 seconds.
