The 2017 BRZ gets updated styling and more features, like Incline Start Assist and steering wheel control switches for the audio, cruise control and Bluetooth. Under the skin there are more updates, like updated coil springs and dampers as well as a larger rear stabilizer bar. The stability control system thresholds are raised to allow the driver to experience more of the car’s improved handling, and in “Sport” mode the results were dramatic enough for Subaru to change the name of “Sport” mode to “Track”.

Under the hood a new aluminum intake manifold and redesigned exhaust manifold increase air flow, upping the engine output in models with the 6-speed manual transmission to 205-hp and 156 lb-ft of torque. Also, a lower final drive ratio from 4.1 to 4.3:1 paired with the standard Torsen limited-slip differential, improves acceleration on models with the manual transmission.
