Why choose the Toyota GR86?
The Toyota GR86 is a lightweight, rear-wheel-drive sports coupe that delivers pure driving thrills. Launched in 2022 as the successor to the GT86, it builds on the same driver-focused ethos but with more power, improved handling and a sharper design. Developed by Toyota’s Gazoo Racing division, the GR86 is one of the most engaging affordable sports cars on the market.
At the heart of the GR86 is a 2.4-litre flat-four "boxer" engine, producing 231bhp and 250Nm of torque. This is a significant improvement over the old 2.0-litre unit, reducing the 0-62mph time to just 6.3 seconds. The car is available with a six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic, though the manual version is the purist’s choice. Weighing just 1,275kg, the GR86 remains one of the lightest sports cars in its class. With a low centre of gravity, finely tuned suspension and a limited-slip differential as standard, it delivers sharp, precise handling with excellent balance and feedback. Whether carving through British A-roads or enjoying track days, the GR86 offers an authentic, old-school sports car experience.
The GR86 retains the classic coupe silhouette but features wider arches, a lower stance and aggressive aerodynamics for improved stability. Inside, it’s a driver-focused cabin with supportive sports seats, a 7-inch digital instrument cluster and touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Practicality is limited, but the 2+2 seating and fold-down rear seats offer some versatility.
