We are also proud to announce that
the 2013 Subaru BRZ has earned the
Insurance Institute for Highway Safety’s
(IIHS) top award for good performance
in its moderate overlap, frontal, side,
rollover and rear-impact evaluations.
This distinction has helped Subaru win
seven awards in total, enabling us to
become the only manufacturer with
a 2012 TOP SAFETY PICK for all our
models. In addition to this great news,
Car Guide has named the 2013 Subaru
BRZ as its Best New Car of the Year.
Overall, a fantastic start!
Practical and accessible and
yet meant to be driven hard
lets Subaru deliver on its promise of
uncompromising quality. With the new
one-of-a-kind power plant, its handling
conquers any winding mountain road

positioning to lightweight aluminum
hood to the stunningly attractive car
body, every engineering and safety
advance (and there are many more)
has created a great vehicle.
Engineered to perform
The ingenious Subaru engineers are
true visionaries: they wanted the BRZ
to deliver pure handling delight and yet
be accessible to many buyers. Rearwheel drive, a performance car essential,
allows the soulful Subaru Boxer engine
to be placed even farther back, for the
best possible precision cornering due
to perfect front/back weight balance.
Then, as if that weren’t enough sheer
excitement, there is astounding precision
as the newly engineered quick-ratio
steering reacts astoundingly fast and
precise for even greater agility on
curves, hills and the open road.
