Trivia
- This season's Japanese title, Cho Z is short for Chōzetsu which roughly translates to "transcendence", meaning 'above or beyond the range of normal'.
- This season may be a reference to Shogun Steel from the Metal Saga, namely in that there is a time skip in between seasons, as well as the introduction of a new main protagonist that wants to surpass its previous protagonists.
- This season ends the classic Beyblade tradition of the protagonist using an Attack Type Beyblade, as Aiger Akabane (the protagonist of Turbo) uses a Balance Type Bey.
- This anime poster is also modified to promote the Beyblade Burst World Championship 2018 that was held in Paris.
- Unlike the previous two seasons which were dubbed over by Ocean Productions and Blue Water Studios in Canada, this season of Burst was recorded by Bang! Zoom Entertainment in Los Angeles, California.
- Additionally, because of the studio switch, all of the characters from the first two seasons who appeared in this season were given new English voice actors.
- Turbo is the first Burst season to not feature a new song for the English eyecatcher and instead reuses the theme song for the season, "Turbo."
- This is the first Beyblade season where the English opening theme changes throughout the season.
