Subaru BRZ
The BRZ soldiers on with no changes for 2020, but we know that a new generation is already in the works, once again through a partnership with Toyota. The current, naturally aspirated 2.0-litre flat-four engine delivers 205 horsepower when paired with the six-speed manual transmission or 200 with the automatic. There are three trim levels, including the Sport-tech RS that impresses with sport seats in black leather and Alcantara, Brembo performance brakes and SACHS dampers.
