Choose the 2027 BRZ if a compact body, rear-wheel drive, and automatic transmission match your priorities. Its 25 MPG combined rating gives a clear estimate for mixed use, while the $3,300 annual fuel figure sets the running-cost expectation. Drivers who spend most miles in town should account for the 21 MPG city rating rather than relying on the highway number. This is a straightforward fit for buyers comfortable with gasoline costs and the BRZ's stated emissions level.
What it is
The 2027 Subaru BRZ is a minicompact car running on gasoline. It uses rear-wheel drive, a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine, and an automatic S6 transmission.
Its defining figure is 25 combined MPG. That is the single number to use when you want one fuel-economy figure for mixed driving.
The numbers
The BRZ is rated at 21 MPG in city driving and 30 MPG on the highway. Your result will depend on how much of your driving matches each setting.
Tailpipe output is listed at 362 grams of CO2 per mile.
What it costs to run
The stated annual fuel cost is $3,300. That figure goes with the car's 25 MPG combined rating and its gasoline powertrain.
The 21 MPG city number points to higher fuel use in stop-and-go driving than the 30 MPG highway figure.
How it compares
Use the 25 combined MPG figure for a direct side-by-side with other Subaru cars. Its 21 city and 30 highway ratings show how the result changes with driving conditions.
For a wider fuel-economy search, compare that combined figure with cars in fuel-efficient cars.
Who it suits
The BRZ suits a driver who wants a small gasoline car with rear-wheel drive and an automatic transmission.
It also fits someone who can plan around a $3,300 yearly fuel cost and mostly drives in conditions where 25 combined MPG is acceptable.
Trade-offs
The car's 30 highway MPG is higher than its 21 city MPG, so frequent urban driving can use more fuel than highway trips.
Rear-wheel drive and the 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine define the powertrain, while the 362-gram-per-mile tailpipe figure adds an emissions trade-off.
Verdict
Choose the 2027 BRZ if a compact body, rear-wheel drive, and automatic transmission match your priorities.
Its 25 MPG combined rating gives a clear estimate for mixed use, while the $3,300 annual fuel figure sets the running-cost expectation.
Drivers who spend most miles in town should account for the 21 MPG city rating rather than relying on the highway number.
This is a straightforward fit for buyers comfortable with gasoline costs and the BRZ's stated emissions level.
