Subaru's Bringing Back the Flat-Six, and It's Twin-Turbo This Time
The 2026 BRZ GT300 gets a 3.0L twin-turbo boxer engine, ditching the EJ20 for an EG33-based block that hasn't seen production in three decades. Subaru's finally admitting that naturally aspirated 228 hp wasn't cutting it anymore—and the motorsport connection suggests this isn't just marketing theater.
Subaru's playing the long game here. They killed the flat-six in road cars, now they're bringing it back hotter just to remind everyone why it mattered in the first place.
