I am not sure if they can make a next generation anymore. This year the BRZ pricing was increased by 15% in Europe. Reason was that EU is targeting on average a 95 grams of CO2 per kilometer, an objective that Subaru couldn't meet. So, they had to pay a fine of 95 euros for every extra gram of CO2 and the biggest part of this was transferred to the consumers.

I am sure that Subaru will have similar problems in other regions with the continuously stricter emission rules. If not now, for sure in the near future.
