How many seats does the Subaru BRZ have?

The Subaru BRZ is a two-door, four-seater sports car. It is equipped with a naturally aspirated 2.0-liter horizontally opposed four-cylinder engine with the code name FA20, delivering 200 horsepower and a maximum torque of 205 N·m in its factory state. The Subaru BRZ has body dimensions of 4240mm in length, 1775mm in width, and 1285mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2570mm. The exterior design of the Subaru BRZ is more sporty, featuring 225/40ZR18 Michelin Pilot Super Sport series tires, and the chassis has been reinforced.
As a Subaru BRZ owner, I can tell you this cool sports car is designed as a 2+2 seater, counting both front and rear seats. But the back seats are really cramped, like tiny stools – adults have to bend their legs uncomfortably, making them only suitable for kids or occasionally storing bags. When I take it for drives, friends who squeeze into the back always complain about discomfort, so my wife and I just sit up front, enjoying the low driving position and engine roar. The BRZ's 2+2 layout was meant to add some practicality, but the main focus is on sportiness and fun – like mountain road racing or city weaving – making the rear seats more of an afterthought. If you frequently carry multiple passengers, you're better off with a four-door sedan. The BRZ's real charm lies in two-person adventures, plus you can mod the exterior for extra attention. Bottom line: if you buy it, accept the rear seat limitations. Test drive it at a dealership to experience the space firsthand.
I've helped maintain quite a few Subaru BRZs at the auto shop. It does come standard with four seats - the front ones are perfectly normal, but the rear seats are pitifully small, hardly anyone can sit comfortably for long distances. Customers often complain that the back seats are only good for temporary emergencies, like giving friends a short lift when it's convenient, otherwise the legroom is so tight it causes backaches. Structurally speaking, as a two-door coupe, the BRZ's compact chassis design necessitated this front-rear layout, but passengers frequently bump their heads against the roof in the back. I advise owners to use the rear seats more for storage rather than expecting it to function as a family car. If you really need to carry passengers, prioritize the front seats. The rear seatbacks don't adjust their angle either, and you need to be extra careful not to damage anything when replacing seat components.
