Meet the 2026 Subaru BRZ at Schaller Subaru
The 2026 Subaru BRZ is a true driver’s coupe that keeps things pure and focused. At Schaller Subaru in Berlin, CT, this rear-wheel-drive sports car blends sharp handling, a high-revving SUBARU BOXER® engine, and everyday usability into one affordable sports car package.
When you visit our showroom, our expert team will provide a full breakdown of 2026 Subaru BRZ specs, trims, pricing, fuel economy, interior space, safety features, and available accessories. We’ll also compare the BRZ lineup to rivals like the Toyota GR86, Mazda Miata, and even icons like the Ford Mustang, while highlighting how this coupe fits alongside other Subaru models like the Subaru WRX and Subaru Solterra.
The 2026 Subaru BRZ is available in two trims: Limited and BRZ tS.
Interior of the 2026 Subaru BRZ
Slide into the 2026 Subaru BRZ and you’ll immediately notice how everything centers around the driver. This 2+2 coupe seats four, with heavily bolstered front seats designed to hold you steady through corners. The cabin offers 77.2 cubic feet of passenger volume and 6.3 cubic feet of trunk cargo space, making it more practical than many sports cars in its class.
Even better, the fold-down rear seatback allows you to expand cargo room for track gear, small luggage, or weekend bags. Child safety is addressed with a LATCH system featuring lower anchors and tethers for children, giving Subaru owners peace of mind even in a performance coupe.
Interior Highlights Include:
- Ultrasuede® and leather-trimmed upholstery
- Heated front seats
- Dual-zone automatic climate control
- Six-way manual driver’s seat and four-way manual passenger seat
- Fold-down rear seatback
The Limited trim features red-accented upholstery with red contrast stitching, while the BRZ tS model upgrades to blue stitching and STI-design digital instrumentation with red metallic accents. A leather-wrapped steering wheel and shifter (red stitching on Limited, blue on tS) come standard.
Other convenience features include power windows with auto up/down, welcome lighting, a tilt-and-telescoping steering column, adaptive cruise control controls integrated into the steering wheel, a glove box with 12-volt outlet, and concealed vanity mirrors.
Exterior of the 2026 Subaru BRZ
The 2026 Subaru BRZ keeps the iconic sports car formula intact: front engine, rear-wheel drive, and a low center of gravity. Its compact dimensions – 167.9 inches long, 69.9 inches wide, and 51.6 inches tall – sit on a 101.4-inch wheelbase. The wide stance (59.8-inch front track and 61-inch rear track) contributes to stable cornering. Ground clearance measures 5.1 inches.
Both trims ride on 18 x 7.5-inch aluminum-alloy wheels wrapped in 215/40 R18 Michelin® Pilot® Sport 4 summer performance tires. The Limited features matte dark gray wheels, while the BRZ tS gets dark gray metallic-finish wheels and exclusive exterior accents. Heated side mirrors, LED Steering Responsive Headlights, a trunk spoiler, and variable-intermittent wipers are standard.
Available Exterior Colors:
- WR Blue Pearl
- Crystal Black Silica
- Ice Silver Metallic
- Magnetite Gray Metallic
- Ignition Red
- Sapphire Blue Pearl
Performance of the 2026 Subaru BRZ
At the heart of every 2026 Subaru BRZ is a 2.4-liter direct- and port-injected SUBARU BOXER® four-cylinder engine. It produces 228 horsepower at 7,000 rpm and 184 lb-ft of torque at 3,700 rpm. This naturally aspirated engine delivers linear power, responsive throttle feel, and the balanced handling Subaru drivers expect.
A fully synchronized six-speed manual transmission comes standard on both trims, paired with a Torsen® limited-slip rear differential. A six-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters and downshift rev-matching is available on the Limited trim.
Fuel economy reaches up to an EPA-estimated 27 mpg highway and 20 mpg city with the manual, and up to 30 mpg highway and 21 mpg city with the automatic.
The drivetrain is classic rear-wheel drive, sending power to the rear wheels for true sports car balance. Curb weight starts at 2,837 pounds (manual Limited), contributing to quick acceleration and agile steering.
The Limited trim features a sport-tuned four-wheel independent suspension with MacPherson struts up front and multi-link rear suspension. The BRZ tS sharpens things further with an STI-tuned sport suspension and Brembo® performance braking system with four-piston front and dual-piston rear calipers.
Quick-ratio electric power steering (13.5:1 ratio), ventilated disc brakes, Vehicle Stability Control with Track Mode, and a V-shaped strut tower bar all contribute to confident control on road or track.
Compared to the Toyota GR86, which shares a platform, the BRZ offers its own suspension tuning and Subaru engineering. Against competitors like the Mazda Miata or even entry-level Ford Mustang models, the BRZ stands out as a lightweight, balanced coupe without turbo complexity.
