2017 Subaru BRZ vs 2018 Subaru BRZ

Two adjacent model years of the Subaru BRZ, side by side. Every figure is a raw NHTSA/EPA count — not normalised by how many were sold.

Side by side: 2017 BRZ has fewer recorded recall campaigns (0 vs 2), and 2018 BRZ has fewer recorded owner complaints (1 vs 7). Both carry NHTSA crash ratings, and both have EPA fuel-economy data.

How to read this

  • A green check marks the lower raw count — fewer recorded issues, not a declared winner.
  • Complaint totals are not normalised by vehicle population; a big-seller shows more of everything.
  • Where a rating or EPA record is absent, that is missing data — not evidence of safety.
