But still no turbocharged BRZ??

"The concept is powered by a high-output, race-bred turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder boxer engine which is currently being used in the brand’s BRZ GT300 race car, which competes in the Super GT series in Japan. Its outputs are estimated at 225kW and 450Nm.

It is understood the engine is undergoing durability testing as part of the racing series, so a potential production version could eventuate. However, that will likely take a while, so the the current BRZ’s normally-aspirated 2.0-litre ‘boxer’ with 147kW/205Nm is set to continue unchanged until further notice."

Hopefully the road going on gets something with a bit more punch and a snail!

I'm confused.

It's saying its a concept model, so don't expect turbo charged BRZ's to flood showroom floors just yet...
