ANALYSISHow safe is the 2023 Subaru BRZ?
The 2023 Subaru BRZ sits in the Clean burden band, the lightest category in the recall and complaint record. Zero recalls and zero owner complaints filed with NHTSA define this year's standing. A Clean band does not function as a proxy for crash performance, and the Safety Desk draws no crash-safety inference from it. Shoppers who want a crash-tested reference point within the BRZ lineage can look to the 2020 model year, which carries a Safety Index of 84, and the 2019 model year, which carries a Safety Index of 83, as navigational data points. Those figures belong to different model years and cannot be applied to the 2023 vehicle.
