Reasons to Love the 2026 BRZ
Pure Sports Car Performance for the Potomac Highlands
The 2026 BRZ is engineered for those who believe the drive is the destination. It's a lightweight, rear-wheel-drive masterpiece designed to handle the elevation changes of Western Maryland:
Low Center of Gravity: The naturally aspirated 2.4-liter BOXER® engine sits ultra-low in the chassis, providing a 17.95-inch center of gravity for flat, telepathic cornering.
228-HP Mid-Range Punch: With 184 lb-ft of torque arriving at just 3,700 RPM, the BRZ offers a responsive "punch" perfect for passing on two-lane mountain roads.
The BRZ tS Evolution: For the ultimate enthusiast, the tS trim brings STI-tuned Hitachi® dampers and a high-performance Brembo® braking system with signature gold calipers.
Lightweight Agility: At just under 2,900 lbs, the BRZ remains one of the lightest sports cars on the market, offering a level of connection and "finesse over force" that heavy luxury coupes can't match.
Advanced Safety Now Standard Across the Board
For 2026, Subaru has achieved the "impossible" by making its award-winning safety suite standard for every driver, regardless of their transmission choice:
Standard EyeSight® for All: Whether you choose the 6-speed manual or the automatic, every 2026 BRZ now features Pre-Collision Braking and Adaptive Cruise Control.
IIHS Safety Pedigree: Built on a reinforced frame with high-tensile steel, the BRZ is designed to protect you during spirited drives through the Cumberland Narrows.
Track-Ready Visibility: Standard LED Steering Responsive Headlights "peer" into the corners as you turn, illuminating the apex of every curve on your night drive.
A Daily Driver That Doesn’t Compromise
The BRZ proves that a sports car can still be practical enough for your daily commute to downtown Cumberland:
Modern Connectivity: Every model features an 8.0-inch touchscreen with standard Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™, keeping your navigation and music front and center.
Configurable Digital Dash: A 7.0-inch digital instrument cluster features a dedicated "Track Mode" that puts your tachometer and lateral-G meter right in your line of sight.
Fold-Down Versatility: While it's a 2+2 coupe, the rear seat folds flat, creating enough space to carry a set of four track tires or your weekend gear for a trip to Rocky Gap.
