Toyota vehicles may be known for being practical and reliable, but this doesn’t mean they can’t also be fun. The new – and revamped – Toyota GR86 is the perfect example.
Power and Performance
The Toyota GR86 comes with a?228-horsepower 2.4-liter flat 4-cylinder engine. A 6-speed manual transmission is standard, but a 6-speed automatic is an option. Rear-wheel drive is standard. In addition to potent power, the Toyota GR86 also has great acceleration, going from 0 to 60 mph in about six seconds. And thanks to strong brakes and very responsive steering, this sportscar handles like a dream. It also has nice gas mileage for its class: 19 MPG in the city and 26 MPG on the highway. Those numbers go up to 20/30 MPG city/highway with the automatic transmission.
Space and Comfort
There are four seats in the Toyota GR86, and the front row in particular has a lot of head- and legroom. Manually-adjustable front seats and cloth upholstery come standard, and upgrades include Alcantara leather and heated front seats. The trunk contains 6.2 cubic feet of space, and the rear seats fold down to offer more cargo room.
Tech and Safety
The Toyota GR86 comes loaded with advanced tech and safety features. In addition to a user-friendly and quick-responding infotainment system with an 8-inch touchscreen, you’ll get:
- Push-button start
- A 6-speaker stereo
- Android Auto™
- Apple CarPlay®
- Satellite and HD radio
- 2 USB ports
- Remote keyless entry
- Bluetooth®
- A rearview camera
- Adaptive pivoting headlights
Available features include an 8-speaker stereo, forward collision warning, and automatic emergency braking.
