斯巴鲁正式向美国市场推出BRZ tS，在配置上与斯巴鲁两年前在日本上市的STI改装版（但没有STI标志）差不多。tS版本更注重提升操控性和转向性能而非功率的提升。STI工程师重新调校了Sachs前后减震并改变了弹簧刚性。引擎室内采用了灵活的V形支架。tS是首款提供18英寸轮圈的车型，该车还配备215/40米其林 Pilot Sport 4轮胎以提升操控性和快速转向性能，而Brembo刹车盘则提供了更强制动力。该车外观也更突出侵略性，包括专属STI碳纤维后扰流器，驾驶员可手动调整扰流器以调整车辆后部下压力。STI工程师还开发了车辆前部、后部和侧面底部扰流器以优化车辆高速行驶时的气流。BRZ tS将于明年初抵达美国展厅，该车只限量生产500辆。
Subaru reveals BRZ tS for US market
Subaru has officially introduced the BRZ tS for the US market, matching the 'tuned by STI' (but not STI-badged) package that debuted in Japan two years ago.
The tS focuses on handling and steering enhancements rather than more power. STI engineers retuned the front and rear Sachs dampers and changed the spring rates. Flexible V-braces can be found in the engine compartment.
The tS is the first BRZ to be available with 18-inch wheels, also designed by STI and mounted with 215/40 Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires for improved grip and quicker turn-in. Brembo brakes help slow down the car in a hurry.
The exterior has a more aggressive appearance with an exclusive STI carbon fiber rear spoiler. Drivers can manually adjust the spoiler to dial in rear downforce. STI engineers also created front, rear and side underspoilers for improved high-speed airflow.
The BRZ tS will be available in US showrooms early next year. It will be limited to just 500 examples.
