Subaru BRZ Gets More Expensive For 2025, Starting At $32,265
by AutoExpert | 17 September, 2024
If you’ve been holding off on buying a Subaru BRZ, you might want to rethink your strategy. The 2025 model's price has increased by $900, and the destination fee has increased by another $50. It’s challenging to see what justifies this hike.
The base model now starts at $32,265, including a $1,170 destination fee. The only new feature is a Sport mode, which Subaru says improves throttle response for manual transmission models. If you’re opting for an automatic, you’re getting the same setup as last year.
Here’s a look at the new prices compared to 2024:
- BRZ Premium MT: $32,265 (up $950)
- BRZ Limited MT: $34,915 (up $1,100)
- BRZ Limited AT: $35,765 (up $1,000)
- BRZ tS: $37,415 (up $950)
This price increase comes at a time when BRZ sales have dropped significantly—Subaru sold only 1,414 units in the first half of the year, a decrease of nearly 44 percent. There’s no sign that sales will pick up soon. With its 228-horsepower, naturally aspirated 2.4-liter flat-four engine and manual transmission, the BRZ still has its appeal.
But with the tS model approaching $40,000, it’s competing directly with other high-performance options like the Subaru WRX and Toyota GR Corolla, which might offer more value for the price. If you’re considering a BRZ, this price increase might push you to explore other choices.
