A seat cover is not necessarily required on a 2027 Subaru BRZ, and the factory seats are good enough that some owners will leave them alone. A seat cover earns its place when the car is used daily, when the color scheme is not to your taste, or when you want a layer between the factory bolsters and everyday wear. Subaru describes the BRZ Limited's seats as black Ultrasuede with red leather-appointed bolsters and contrast stitching. The BRZ tS has Ultrasuede and leather-trimmed upholstery with blue accents.

Which Seat Cover Color Suits the 2027 Subaru BRZ's Red or Blue Accents?
The red bolsters on the BRZ Limited and the blue accents on the BRZ tS are the first things a cover hides. If you love them, a cover may not be for you. If you would like a different look, our team suggests Black & Red to keep a warm accent or Black for a plain interior. For a BRZ tS, Black & Blue repeats the blue. These are our ideas, not Subaru's. Our guide to custom color-matched seat covers shows the options.
Do Seat Covers Work With the 2027 Subaru BRZ's Heated Seats?
Subaru's 2027 trim specifications list heated front seats as standard on both the BRZ Limited and the BRZ tS, and its release adds dual-mode seat heater controls for the BRZ Limited. Run each heater mode once your covers are on. Heat travels through the extra layer, and our perforated eco-leather is designed to keep any slowdown small. In hot months, our blogs on protecting car seats from sweat and stopping seat covers from fading in sunlight are worth reading. Our guide on whether seat covers are safe for heated seats is the one to read for heater questions.
How Seat Covers Protect 2027 Subaru BRZ Seat Bolsters From Daily Wear
A seat's side bolsters take contact whenever you get in. A cover puts a layer between that contact and the factory surface. Keep this practical, though: check that a cover leaves the belt buckle and any controls free, and look at the fit around the bolsters before you settle into daily use. Our post on installation tips for vehicle seat covers walks through fitting, and our guide to cleaning seat covers without ruining them keeps them presentable afterward.
Already Own a 2027 Subaru BRZ? Check the Seats Before You Buy Covers
Owners who have driven a BRZ for months can look at the bolsters and the seat cushions for wear first. If the surface still looks as it did on delivery, a cover is a styling decision. If it already shows contact, a cover can stop it getting worse. Either way, take photos before installing, so you can compare the factory seats later.
Conclusion
Leave the seats of your 2027 Subaru BRZ empty if the car is mainly a collector's piece, if you are happy with Ultrasuede as it is, or if you would rather keep the stitching visible. Ultrasuede and leather are both surfaces you may not want to cover, and that is a legitimate choice. If you later sell the car, our guide on how seat covers affect resale value looks at both sides. Our perforated eco-leather, quilted in a diamond pattern, is explained in the benefits of eco-leather for your car, and Seat Cover Solutions has a 4.9/5 rating from more than 100,000 orders.
