Explore the 2026 Subaru BRZ in Ann Arbor, MI

2026 Subaru BRZ in Ann Arbor, MI, at Subaru of Ann Arbor

When you want an affordable sports car that respects tradition but performs like a modern machine, the 2026 Subaru BRZ at Subaru of Ann Arbor in Ann Arbor, MI, is your answer. A rear-wheel-drive coupe engineered for precision and balance, the new BRZ delivers pure sports car performance with the refinement and quality Subaru vehicles are known for. The 2026 BRZ lineup features two distinct trims: the well-equipped BRZ Limited and the track-focused BRZ tS.

Both trims share the same 2.4-liter direct-injection SUBARU BOXER® engine with 228 horsepower, but the tS enhances that platform with an STI-tuned suspension and Brembo® performance braking system. Unlike competitors like the Mazda MX-5 Miata or Toyota GR86, the BRZ balances sport-focused engineering with everyday drivability and a surprisingly usable rear seat and cargo area.

Trims: BRZ Limited vs BRZ tS

The BRZ Limited trim blends performance and premium features, with available automatic transmission, red-stitched interior, and sport-tuned suspension. The tS (tuned by STI) trim is manual-only and brings higher performance credentials with a stiffer suspension, Brembo® brakes, and unique blue contrast interior accents.

Both models include:

• 18-inch wheels with Michelin® summer tires
• Ultrasuede® and leather-trimmed upholstery
• Heated front seats and dual-zone climate control
• Subaru Multimedia System with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™
• EyeSight® safety suite

Exclusive to the BRZ tS:

• STI-tuned suspension
• Brembo® performance brakes
• STI-specific interior gauge cluster and trim
• Crystal Black Silica side mirrors
• Dark gray metallic-finish wheels

No packages are offered for either trim, but a wide range of accessories can be added to further customize your BRZ, including STI shift knobs, under spoilers, rear bumper diffusers, and all-weather floor liners.

Interior Comfort and Cabin Highlights

The 2026 Subaru BRZ interior focuses on performance and comfort without compromise. The two-door coupe offers seating for four with supportive sport front seats, generous front-row legroom, and a fold-down rear seatback for added practicality.

The Limited and tS both feature Ultrasuede® and leather-trimmed upholstery. The Limited gets red accents and contrast stitching, while the tS adds exclusive blue stitching and trim finishes. Dual-zone automatic climate control is standard, along with heated front seats and a leather-wrapped steering wheel with integrated controls. Child seat anchors (LATCH) are built into the rear, giving the BRZ versatility rare in the sports coupe segment.

• Dual-zone automatic climate control
• Heated front seats and heated mirrors
• Fold-down rear seatback for cargo flexibility
• Ultrasuede® and leather-trimmed seating with red or blue accents
• Leather-wrapped steering wheel and shifter handle

Interior measurements include 41.5 inches of front legroom, 77.2 cubic feet of passenger volume, and 6.3 cubic feet of trunk space. The BRZ may look like a track-ready coupe, but it’s also ready for daily driving and weekend errands.

Exterior Styling and Color Options

Built with clean proportions and lightweight aerodynamics, the 2026 Subaru BRZ cuts a lean and purposeful profile. Both trims come with 18 x 7.5-inch aluminum-alloy wheels and Michelin® Pilot® Sport 4 summer performance tires. The tS distinguishes itself with a dark gray metallic wheel finish and Crystal Black Silica-finished side mirrors, while the Limited features body-color mirrors and a matte dark gray wheel finish.

Standard LED steering responsive headlights, a trunk spoiler, and heated side mirrors complete the look, while additional accessories like an exterior graphics kit, vortex generator, and STI spoilers are available to further personalize your BRZ.

Available color options include:

• WR Blue Pearl

• Magnetite Gray Metallic
