Gas Mileage 2022 BRZ

[Fast1]

Hey everyone, I tried searching the threads for gas mileage people are getting in the new BRZ, but I didn’t see too many results. I have also looked on Fuelly and it looks like people seem to be getting 22-28MPG. It would be cool to track the MPG of the '22s.


Go ahead and reply with the MPG you are getting, the trim you have, manual or automatic, and the type of driving style you do!


I apologize if there is already a thread with this, I couldn't find one yet. Thanks everyone!

I'm averaging 23.5mpg with pretty spirited driving. BRZ Limited, Manual. Semi-rural driving

@~300 KM so far, premium w/auto transmission 16.5 mpg Nowhere near 20-30mpg...
I'm fueling with 94 octane fuel and drive very spirited with burnouts.

Oh wow, that's not great at all. Cool you get 94 though!

Oh that's not too bad. Some people were getting 34mpg with the auto. Idk how they were doing that.

I was in the 18mpg range, but then did a la trip and now it avg 25 lol spirited city driving the 18mpg though

Obviously going to be highly dependent on driving style and conditions, but even the EPA ratings are pretty low for such a small, light car..

Yeah, currently there isn't a ton of data out just yet, but it's getting quite populated. Overall, I think it's safe to say gen2 will be down about 2-3 mpg's on average from gen1 based on whatever ones style of driving is. I personally think that's pretty solid for a 2.4L NA engine built to peak power specs. To be able to pull off above 30 on highway is a dream for a quick NA sports car like this one... and it fulfills it.

I don't do much highway, 95% sub urban. I think it's mostly because I take off like a bat out of hell and have been having a bit of fun in the snow.

I lucked out with the gas, the Petro Canada station down the street offers it.

I can see it being possible setting the cruise control around 60mph on a nice flat highway

I dunno, the numbers seem average at best, a GR Supra with either engine does better in the EPA ratings. Heck, even a 4 or 6 cyl Camero gets better EPA numbers..

Here, compare away..

Don't have to, I can see you may have misread part of the point in my post. This is an NA engine we are talking about here. One built for absolute peak performance too (minus the emissions and whatever standards that hold it back a little). Forced induction obviously beats NA in EPA just about any day aside from mashing the pedal comparisons. The 2021 V6 Camaro gets 16/26 mpg, so I'm not sure where you're going with that one.

So, pretty much ignoring all guidelines for break-in?

Not looking to have a pissing match, my point with the Camero is it is a much larger, heavier car and its larger 6 cyl is only rated 1 mpg less on the highway. Porsche Cayman with the 2.7 6 cyl is rated 29 mpg hwy to the BRZ's 27 mpg. If you dig, I'm sure you can come up with other examples.

I like the BRZ, but I don't think it is anything special when it comes to mpg comparisons. Feel free to disagree, that's okay, we won't always agree..
