Subaru unveils upgraded 2027 BRZ with new shift lever and eyeSight system

Subaru announced on July 30 the upgraded 2027 Subaru BRZ sports car. The manual‑transmission version now features a redesigned shift‑lever mechanism for smoother gear changes and the first use of a wide‑angle monocular camera in the eyeSight driver‑assist system, expanding the detection range when combined with existing stereo cameras. The model retains its horizontally opposed engine and front‑engine, rear‑wheel‑drive layout, and is priced from ¥3,377,000 in Japan (approximately 585.7 million VND in Vietnam). The changes draw on motorsport experience to improve handling and safety. Social media commentary highlighted interest in the new shift‑lever design and the enhanced eyeSight capability.

The upgrade was also highlighted in Vietnamese automotive coverage, noting the price conversion and the addition of a manual‑only version, underscoring Subaru’s effort to refresh the BRZ line for regional markets.
