Subaru Cuts Price Of BRZ Sports Car

SUBARU has announced a price cut for its rear-wheel drive coupe, the BRZ. Alongside the sister Toyota GT86 car, the BRZ is pitched at buyers seeking a fun, low cost sports coupe to rival the driving enjoyment offered by more expensive German models.

From May the BRZ experience will be £2,500 less expensive, as Subaru is reducing the price to put more distance between it and its newly launched WRX STI model.

This means the SE Lux BRZ variant can be had for £23,995, while the same car with an auto transmission will be priced at £25,495.

Commenting on the move, Paul Tunnicliffe, Managing Director of Subaru UK, said: “A more favourable exchange rate between the pound and yen has allowed us to reduce the price of a number of models in recent years, and our performance range – the BRZ and WRX STI – are the latest to benefit.

“Together, they represent outstanding value for enthusiast drivers seeking a high level of performance, driver interaction and entertainment on the road.”
