Subaru BRZ car rental for pure rear-wheel-drive fun
Drive a BRZ
A Subaru BRZ car rental puts you in a light, rear-wheel-drive coupe built for drivers who love to shift. Here's what to know before you book one on Turo.
The BRZ is a 2+2 sports coupe with a naturally aspirated 2.4-liter boxer engine, rear-wheel drive, and a standard six-speed manual. It's a rare recipe today, and it makes every on-ramp feel like an event. If you want the full lineup, browse Subaru car rental options on Turo.
On Turo, a car rental marketplace, you choose the exact BRZ you want, down to the year, trim, and transmission. You book it from a local vehicle owner and arrange a pickup that fits your plans.

Rev-happy boxer engine power
The BRZ runs on a 2.4-liter SUBARU BOXER four-cylinder. It makes 228 hp at 7,000 rpm and 184 lb-ft of torque at 3,700 rpm. Its horizontally opposed pistons sit low and flat, which keeps the engine compact and balanced. It loves to rev, so let it climb.
Manual or automatic, your call
The BRZ gives you a choice of two transmissions, and both have six speeds. The standard six-speed manual suits drivers who want full control of every shift. It includes Incline Start Assist, which briefly holds the car on a hill while you move your foot from the brake to the gas.
Prefer to let the car handle the clutch? The Limited trim offers an optional six-speed automatic with paddle shifters, so you can still pick your own gears when the road opens up. Check the listing before you book to confirm which transmission your BRZ has. That choice shapes how the whole drive feels.
Balanced rear-wheel-drive handling
The BRZ pairs a front-mounted engine with rear-wheel drive, a classic sports car layout that sends power to the back wheels. That setup gives the car a natural, balanced feel as you turn into a corner. A TORSEN limited-slip rear differential comes standard and helps split power between the rear wheels for steady traction.
Subaru also trims weight where it counts. The hood, front fenders, and roof are aluminum, which helps keep the coupe light and responsive. The result is a car that feels alert on a winding public road at sensible speeds, with steering that rewards a smooth, steady hand.
Stand out with a BRZ
The BRZ shines when the drive is the destination. Book one for a canyon or coastal road trip, a weekend escape on scenic two-lane roads, or a test run before buying a manual sports car. If you want more options with the same spirit, explore sports car rental listings on Turo.
Top BRZ features
Efficient for a sports car
The BRZ delivers sports car thrills without punishing you at the gas station. With the automatic transmission, it's rated at up to 30 mpg highway and 21 mpg city. The manual comes in at 27 mpg highway and 20 mpg city.
That efficiency matters on a long weekend drive, when you'd rather spend time on the road than in line at the pump. A coastal loop or a mountain day trip feels easier when you aren't watching the fuel gauge every hour. If mileage is a priority for your trip, filter for an automatic BRZ and enjoy the slightly better numbers. Either way, you get a rear-wheel-drive coupe that uses less gas than you might expect.
Sporty cabin details
The BRZ cabin feels purpose-built for driving. Ultrasuede and leather-trimmed upholstery comes standard, giving the seats a grippy, premium texture that holds you in place through every bend.
The BRZ isn't a two-seater — it seats four in a 2+2 layout. The rear seats work best for short hops around town or as extra space for bags. The front seats are where the real comfort lives. For a couple on a weekend getaway, that back row becomes handy storage for jackets, a camera bag, and snacks. Plan on two adults for longer drives, and you'll have room to spare.
Two trims to choose from
BRZ rentals on Turo come in two trims: Limited and tS. Each one suits a slightly different kind of driver, so it's worth checking the listing before you book.
The Limited is the flexible pick, offering the standard six-speed manual or the optional six-speed automatic with paddle shifters. The tS adds STI-tuned sport suspension for a sharper, more connected feel on twisting roads, and it comes with the manual only. Choose the Limited if you want the option to skip the clutch. Choose the tS if you're comfortable with a manual and want the most focused version of the BRZ.
Top tips and things to know before renting a BRZ
Get to know your BRZ
Start with the listing. Check the year, trim, and transmission so you know whether you're booking a manual or an automatic BRZ.
The BRZ has 5.1 inches of ground clearance, so take steep driveways, speed bumps, and parking garage ramps slowly and at an angle. Heading to one of these cities? Browse Subaru rentals in Los Angeles, Subaru rentals in Denver, and Subaru rentals in Seattle.
BRZ driving tips
Make sure you're comfortable driving a stick shift before you book a manual BRZ. If you'd rather not shift, look for a Limited with the automatic.
Because the BRZ is rear-wheel drive, take extra care on wet or snowy roads and give yourself more room to brake. Before you set off, adjust the seat and mirrors for a clear view. On longer drives, plan your stops ahead of time so you can stretch, refuel, and enjoy the scenery.
How much does it cost to rent a BRZ?
The cost of a BRZ rental depends on the vehicle's year, your trip length, any Extras you add, and whether you choose delivery. You can lower the price in a few ways.
Book a non-refundable trip four or more days ahead to save 10%. Duration discounts may also apply for trips of three days, one week, or one month. Planning a longer stay? A long-term car rental of 30 days or more has no trip fee, except in parts of Los Angeles and New York.

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet.

The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
