Is the 2022 Subaru BRZ a good car?

Generally — the 2022 Subaru BRZ earns a 4.29/5 user rating and a 7.67/10 expert rating, which lines up with its appeal as a focused sports coupe. The model scores 9/10 across Performance and Cost effectiveness.

Owners consistently praise the BRZ for its sporty performance, fun driving experience, comfortable ride, engaging handling, and stylish design. The expert review also backs up that appeal by describing it as a more satisfying driving experience, with a more powerful engine and more tech features than before.

The main trade-offs are a cramped back seat and some wishes for a more powerful engine, improved audio system, and better seating comfort. That fits the BRZ’s use case: it is aimed at buyers who want a focused sports car that is fun to drive and easy to live with from a technology standpoint, not a practical family car.

With 27.2% of listings marked as good or great deals, the market gives you some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2022 Subaru BRZ reliable?

Owners rate it 4.29/5, a solid signal of long-term satisfaction. The owner feedback also points to a car that feels dependable and trouble-free enough to inspire confidence over time, especially for buyers who want a sports car they can count on.

The expert review reinforces that impression by describing the BRZ as a car that is easier to live with on long drives than the previous generation, with a quieter cabin and improved on-road manners. Subaru’s five-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty also helps reduce early ownership risk.

For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is less about outright durability and more about whether the car was driven hard or maintained carefully, so condition and service history matter a lot.

What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Subaru BRZ?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 81.6% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still check the history report carefully, because a sports car can hide hard use even when it looks clean on paper. Prioritize a pre-purchase inspection that focuses on suspension wear, tire condition, brake condition, and signs of track or autocross use. You should also pay close attention to cabin condition, since the BRZ’s interior is built for driving enjoyment more than everyday practicality.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base Premium trim gets 17-inch wheels with Michelin Primacy tires, while the Limited rides on 18-inch wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires for more grip. The Limited also adds Ultrasuede upholstery with red accent stitching and dual-mode heaters, while the Premium keeps the simpler setup.
• Powertrain: The BRZ uses a 2.4-liter boxer-four engine with Toyota’s D-4S fuel-injection system, and you can get either a six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic with paddle shifters. The engine makes 228 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque, and the automatic was retuned to downshift quicker and hold gears longer.
• Safety package: Subaru’s EyeSight driver-assist tech is standard only on automatic-transmission models and includes adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-sway warning, lead vehicle start alert, and automatic high beams. The Limited adds blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-keep assist, and steering responsive headlights, while automatic Limited models also get reverse automatic braking.
• Infotainment: You get a standard 8-inch touchscreen and digital gauge cluster, plus Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth connectivity, and SiriusXM satellite radio. The digital cluster also adds sport mode and track mode displays.
• Fuel efficiency: EPA ratings are 25 mpg combined with the automatic and 22 mpg combined with the manual. City and highway ratings are 21 mpg city/30 mpg highway for the automatic and 20 mpg city/27 mpg highway for the manual.

Which 2022 Subaru BRZ trim should I buy?

The 2022 Subaru BRZ is offered in 2 trim levels: Premium and Limited.

Here's the short version:

• Premium: This is the value play if you want the BRZ experience at the lowest entry price. You still get the core sports-car formula, the standard 8-inch touchscreen, digital gauge cluster, and the manual or automatic transmission choices, so it covers the essentials without pushing the budget as far as the Limited.
• Limited: This is the better pick if you want the most complete version of the BRZ. It adds the grippier 18-inch wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires, Ultrasuede upholstery with red accent stitching, dual-mode heaters, and more safety equipment, making it the best-value trim for most shoppers who can stretch.

The Limited also gets the extra safety features tied to the driver-assist package, while automatic Limited models add reverse automatic braking.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Subaru BRZ?

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so you can shop carefully without feeling rushed.

• Deal availability: 27.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 125 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 1.72% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $25,083.58, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 Subaru BRZ's resale value?

The current average of $26,669 sits slightly below last year's $27,137.

That price movement suggests the BRZ has softened a bit, which can help you buy in at a more favorable point. For a future seller, that also means resale will depend heavily on condition, mileage, and how well the car has been cared for. Sports cars can hold attention when they are clean and well maintained, but rough use can hurt value quickly.

Vehicles with solid owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.29/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2022 Subaru BRZ safe?

It earns a 7/10 safety score from our experts.

The BRZ gets Subaru’s EyeSight driver-assist tech for the first time, but only on automatic-transmission models. Standard features include adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-sway warning, lead vehicle start alert, and automatic high beams. The Limited trim adds blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-keep assist, and steering responsive headlights, while automatic Limited models also get reverse automatic braking.

The main safety caveat is that the driver-assist suite is not standard across every version, so manual-transmission shoppers miss out on EyeSight. That makes trim and transmission choice especially important if safety tech is a priority.

Should I buy a 2022 Subaru BRZ or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 27.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 81.6% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 1.72% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.29/5 — a solid satisfaction signal.
• The 2022 model brings a restyled exterior, more power, and more tech features than its predecessor, while keeping the lineup simple with Premium and Limited trims.

The bottom line: The 2022 BRZ is the better pick if you want the redesigned car with stronger performance, improved tech, and a clear value proposition. If you are especially price-sensitive, you can still shop carefully within this year’s market and focus on clean, well-kept examples, but the 2022 is the right call when you want the newer formula without moving up to a pricier alternative.
