Toyota 86 and Subaru BRZ are sister models jointly built by Toyota and Subaru.

86 and BRZ are very similar in appearance, so it is really difficult to tell them apart without careful comparison. The subtle differences are mainly reflected in the details of the front and rear, and even the wheels in the rest are the same style.

The interior design of 86 and BRZ is exactly the same, with obvious Toyota style, inheriting the simple and simple style of AE86, without too luxurious and high-grade design elements, and the overall grade is basically similar to that of ordinary A-class family cars.

Like AE86, the new 86 and BRZ all have a 2+2 seat layout. The two sports seats in the front row look quite good. Obviously, the two seats in the back row can't accommodate adults, and a child may have to be under 1 years old.

after all, this is a small sports car, as long as it can make two people sit comfortably. However, since it is a product of Toyota, the practicality will not be worse. The rear seats of 86 and BRZ can be put down, so that the rear cockpit is connected with the trunk, providing more cargo space.

the power systems of p>86 and BRZ are identical, and the maximum power and torque of the horizontally opposed 4-cylinder naturally aspirated engine are 147kw and 25Nm. The cylinder part of the engine comes from Subaru technology, which belongs to the same series of models as the XV engine just listed not long ago. The difference is that Toyota's D-4S in-cylinder direct injection technology is added.

Extended information:

The road of R&D of 86/BRZ is as follows: Toyota is responsible for the early market positioning of the product, and decided to build a coupe with two doors, 2+2 seats, horizontally opposed engine and rear drive, and determined some basic performance standards. Then, Toyota is responsible for designing the exterior and interior, while Subaru is responsible for chassis and engineering development.

the rear suspension of this car is based on Subaru impreza, and the engine is Subaru's cylinder structure, grafted with Toyota's direct fuel injection system). In the final stage of development, the two companies fine-tuned and finally set the chassis according to their own ideas.

finally, the products are manufactured in gunma factory of Subaru, and the products from the same production line are labeled as Toyota 86, Subaru BRZ or Scion? Trademark of FR-S (north American name).

It can be seen that it is a technical job to argue whether this car is a Toyota or a Subaru. Obviously, this car would not have been born without Toyota, but Subaru is also responsible for the key links of engine, chassis and production.

It may be said that Toyota gave this car the right to life and decided its appearance. Subaru gave it the trunk and internal organs, and was responsible for conceiving and giving birth-I think this description is more appropriate. )

In appearance, the biggest difference between 86 and BRZ lies in the front bumper. The fog lights and air intakes on both sides of 86 are triangular, while BRZ is square. The former is more radical and the latter is more conservative. The decorative part on the fender, 86, has a logo with a horizontally opposite theme, and the BRZ is a simple black fake grille.

each car has its own characteristic color: Subaru is the famous rally blue, 86 is orange, and the other colors are basically * * *. In terms of interiors, Toyota has red and black carriages to choose from, while Subaru has a black interior with only low-key red stitching.

Toyota 86 and Subaru BRZ have exactly the same official price in China, with 269, manual and 279, automatic. 86 was listed half a month earlier than BRZ. At present, the terminal transaction price, FAW Toyota dealers can generally give a discount of about 1, yuan to 86 (up to 2, yuan, which may also be reflected by sending navigation, etc.), while Subaru has little or no discount.

This may be due to the fact that Toyota's order quantity (import volume) is much higher than Subaru's, and secondly, Toyota's dealers in major cities are numerous and competitive, while Subaru monopolizes many outlets in many cities, so the price of BRZ is stronger than 86. This also makes more people join the embrace of 86.

Since Subaru has fewer outlets than Toyota, whether it is convenient after maintenance is also a question that consumers should consider. On the other hand, because Subaru's ownership is not as large as Toyota's, the level of after-sales service and reception standards are slightly higher than Toyota's (as far as my personal experience in the south is concerned).

in terms of warranty period, both brands provide a three-year 1,-kilometer warranty for 86/BRZ.
