On March 7, Subaru China posted a message on the delay in delivery of the new BRZ on its official Weibo, which mentioned the following: "Due to the worldwide shortage of semiconductors caused by the new crown pneumonia epidemic, the delivery of the new generation of SUBARO BRZ started later than expected, and is currently expected to be In April. At the same time, due to the number of reservations significantly exceeding expectations, the delivery time may also be slightly longer than usual. (*Since the booking time of each customer is different, please wait for the dealer to contact the specific delivery time)"
The BRZ's delayed delivery was partly due to too many orders.
Obviously, the reason for this delay in delivery is that the impact of the epidemic has led to insufficient spare parts and too many orders. There is nothing to say about the impact of the epidemic, and I hope that the new crown epidemic will end as soon as possible! And "the number of bookings significantly exceeded expectations" is what deserves our attention. The new generation of Subaru BRZ is powered by a 2.4-liter horizontally opposed four-cylinder engine with a maximum power of 230 horsepower and a peak torque of 249 Nm. In terms of transmission, it is matched with a 6-speed manual or 6-speed manual self-integrated transmission. At first glance, this is not a very good car, and there are many "keyboard men" on the Internet who think that it is not worth spending more than 300,000 yuan to buy, but is this really the case?
What has allowed BRZ to receive a large number of orders is its own strength improvement.
Unlike the comments on the Internet, the new BRZ has attracted much attention since its launch, and for its audience, it really has a big improvement. This new 2.4L naturally aspirated engine, in terms of low torque performance, has a great improvement compared with the original 2.0 machine, the overall horsepower will be greater than the original, and the natural modification potential will be greater. The structure of the two-door rear drive, coupled with the BRZ's already good chassis performance, has allowed the car to receive a large number of orders since the opening of bookings in December 2021.
The gap in the market makes the consumer group not have much choice.
Since the discontinuation of the previous generation 86 and BRZ, the entry-level manual coupe market in mainland China has almost become a blank. After losing, people know how precious something they once had. The price of the second-hand 86 and BRZ has risen, and the price of the quasi-new car was once more expensive than the new car before the production was discontinued. Two-door rear-drive manual transmission of the sports car, there are really not many models in the country, plus BRZ's own strength is quite ok, whether it is the control of the chassis or the feel of the gear shift, people can not fault it. The much-criticized motivation of BRZ has also been improved in the new generation of BRZ, and it is natural that the new BRZ sells well.
The BRZ is not a flawless model.
But brz is definitely not a perfect model, the emission standards of China VI A, is a big reason why many people are not optimistic about it. In most first- and second-tier cities, China VI A does not have a way to get a license, and if you want to buy BRZ, you can only go to a foreign license, which is really inconvenient, especially for car owners in the restricted area. At the same time, although the power of this 2.4 self-priming machine has been improved, it is still unable to compare with some turbo engines, and the power is still a major disadvantage of the BRZ.
But the BRZ is still a good "toy car.".
Even if the BRZ isn't perfect, there's no denying that it's a pretty good sports car. At the price of 300,000, it is definitely the most balanced performance car. Speaking of control, the layout of the front and rear drives makes it a good hand at drifting; talking about fun, it is one of the few manual transmission sports cars currently on sale; it is durable, its stable leather quality and low maintenance price are well-known in the player community. The BRZ is the kind of sports car that suits the vast majority of people, not only not pampered, but also brings endless fun to people.
Whether it is a new model or an old BRZ, it is worth cherishing.
Compared with foreign countries, our country's automobile industry can be said to have started very late, and it was not until the beginning of the 21st century that automobiles really gradually became popular. And car culture is not yet mature. In such a situation, there are still a lot of players to do publicity for this circle, to promote the correct concept of playing with cars. At the same time, some car manufacturers have also brought a lot of fun and character models, so that players have cars to play, and BRZ is one of them. Whether it's the old BRZ or the new BRZ, they're all models with obvious advantages and disadvantages, but they're all interesting models. Local can not be on the card, the last foreign card can also be, after all, many car owners have more than one car; can not buy the new BRZ, buy an old model is no problem, the playability is still very high.
AutoMotive Network Review: The delayed delivery of BRZ not only shows its popularity, but also represents the development and growth of automobile culture.
The delay in the delivery of brz may be mainly limited by production capacity, but it is undeniable that the sales of the new BRZ have indeed exceeded expectations. Such sales, first of all, must be because BRZ's own strength is quite strong, but the side also reflects the continuous growth of the car playing crowd, as well as the change of people's concepts. The former auto parts city style modification, now it is difficult to find traces, what car is worth playing, how to play, everyone has a good idea. The popularity of a model like the BRZ is proof of this! The best times are always the present, car culture is the same, so is the way to play with cars.
