A Closer Look at the 2025 Subaru BRZ tS

The 2025 Subaru BRZ tS stands out as a performance-focused iteration of Subaru’s celebrated rear-wheel-drive sports coupe lineup. Built on a lightweight structure that prioritizes driver engagement, the BRZ tS embodies a motorsport pedigree inspired by Subaru Tecnica International (STI). Available in Boone and the surrounding High Country areas such as Grassy Creek and Zionville, this model blends agile handling with everyday usability.

Designed for enthusiasts seeking precise control, the BRZ tS features a robust 2.4-liter SUBARU BOXER® flat-four engine delivering 228 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque, paired with both a 6-speed manual or an optional 6-speed automatic transmission. This powerplant’s flat design lowers the car’s center of gravity, contributing to balanced handling that responds intuitively to driver input throughout every twist and straightaway.

Equipped to compete with models like the Mazda MX-5 Miata and Toyota GR86, the BRZ tS distinguishes itself with its rear-drive layout and a chassis tuned for spirited track and street driving. It combines sharp steering, a well-tuned suspension, and enhanced braking hardware aimed at precise and confident vehicle control.
