This is a brand new one announced last night? Subaru BRZ (model 2022).
Isn't it a bit complicated ... at first, I prepared a lot of words to spray the appearance of this new car. However, with the decryption of more information, the appearance of the new BRZ is more and more pleasing to the eye, both in terms of video and normal standing posture. It can only be said that the old model is a typical Japanese sports car style, while the new model has become more "Yankee".
It is not difficult to see from the front that the new model inherits the previous one. The grille is still in its original shape, but it is stretched flatter. Daytime running lights are like turning the old ones upside down, that's all. It turns out that the front face of BRZ is exquisite, and the new front face is still not aggressive.
There are more decorations on the side. I visually observed that the door was copied from the old model, and the convex radian of the rear wheel arch was also consistent with the old model, which made its body proportion familiar. The gap between the wheel and the wheel arch is still very large. If you want to look better, it is inevitable to lower your figure.
The rear of the car is unacceptable to many people. The taillights, which originally highlighted many car bodies, are one of the few places to show their strength in this trot, which is very wonderful. The new taillights are too soft and have the shadow of other cars. In my opinion, it is not a successful change.
We must treat it fairly. If the original BRZ is like this, I don't think anyone will object. Only when there is comparison can there be controversy.
The interior of the new car may not be comparable to our own brand car of 10 million yuan, but compared with ourselves, it has made great progress.
The layout is slightly changed, and the operation buttons become more exquisite. The 7-inch LCD screen replaces the mechanical instrument, which naturally displays a lot of information. This is irrelevant to an old car owner who is backward in thinking-I am already very satisfied with the mechanical instrument-but in 2020, if Subaru BRZ still uses mechanical instruments to fool people, even if it blows pure hard core, it won't make sense.
You can see that the seat of the new car is similar to that of the old one, and it has received rave reviews. After all, these two seats are the most valuable and the best experience in the old car. The distance between the steering wheel, handlebar and handbrake is still very close, which is convenient for driving fast or drifting. So is the pedal under your feet.
Regarding the configuration, Subaru also made a meaningful upgrade. The automatic transmission model of the new BRZ is equipped with EyeSight driver assistance system, which greatly improves the active safety and convenience. You know, old BRZ lost his sight for some reason. This time, Subaru got what she wanted. However, this configuration may not have a high weight in the minds of BRZ buyers.
What makes us fantasize most is the new engine. This 2.4L naturally aspirated engine, code-named FA24, can output the maximum power of 170kW(23 1Ps) and the maximum torque of 249 N m. The new engine still adopts the dual-injection fuel supply system (direct injection in cylinder and manifold injection), which can be understood as the expansion of the original FA20 engine, with a cylinder diameter of 94mm and a stroke of 86mm, no longer.
Subaru increases the displacement by increasing the cylinder diameter instead of the stroke, presumably to retain the feature that this engine likes to rotate at high speed-the short stroke design helps to improve the speed. The maximum power point of this new engine is set at 7000 rpm. Interestingly, instead of shouting "Fuck 7300", 3700 is enough.
Because FA24 can output the maximum torque at 3700 rpm, compared with FA20? The maximum torque of 6400 rpm is a qualitative leap, and the effect is comparable to that of mechanical pressurization. In addition, the torque curve of the new engine is smoother, and it is easier for novices and old birds to drive, without the trough of the previous medium speed. This is a small detail.
The left figure shows the new engine torque curve, and the blue line on the right shows the old engine torque curve.
Friends who expect a new generation of BRZ/86 to use TNGA architecture will be disappointed. The new car follows the old chassis structure, and the suspension is the front McPherson rear double wishbone. The wheelbase remains unchanged, but the tread increases slightly. However, Subaru claims that the center of gravity of the new BRZ is lower than that of the old one, with improved body rigidity, optimized suspension and sharper corners. In addition, the electronic system has been re-adjusted, and the movement mode of automatic transmission models is more radical.
Pay attention to the weight of getting off. The data of the American version is 1277kg (from), and my driving license says 1237kg. Considering the new configuration, the increase of power and the differences between Chinese and American models, I think the weight control of the new car is excellent. This is another small detail.
The new car will be officially launched in the autumn of 20021,and the starting price in the United States may be close to $30,000. I won't say anything inspiring. If you have a chance to test drive, it's not too late to be sensational. Based on my car experience, this paper talks about some basic information about new cars, hoping readers can get useful information from it.
If you ask me whether I am satisfied with the new BRZ as an old car owner, the answer is yes. What is the original intention of BRZ? It is light, compact, flexible, rear-driven, manual, good dynamic response and relatively low cost. The combination of these elements aims to let more people enjoy the original driving pleasure. Obviously, the new BRZ has also done this. BRZ or BRZ.
