The 2025 Toyota GR86 is a throwback in the best possible way. It embodies the very spirit of old-school sports coupes while leaving absolutely no doubt that this is a thoroughly modern Toyota, with all the tech and convenience features you’d expect.
A Powertrain for the Purists
If you’re after classic, engaging driving dynamics, then the GR86 is the sports car for you. An athletic 228 hp and 184 lb-ft of torque are at your command, courtesy of a 2.4-liter naturally aspirated boxer engine. This engine output is pumped through a nimble rear-wheel drive drivetrain.
A 6-speed manual transmission is on offer if you want to get really old school, while the 6-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission makes sure to retain its sporty credentials with the inclusion of paddle shifters. With the automatic transmission, the GR86 clocks a 6.6-second 0-60 mph sprint and a top speed of 134 mph. The lively manual somehow surpasses this, going from 0-60 mph in just 6.1 seconds and maxing out at 140 mph.
Head-Turning Looks
The body design of the GR86 is all classic sports coupe. The short rear deck and long hood give the vehicle elegant, racing-inspired proportions, while the overall profile is sleek and aerodynamic.
The interior is similarly track-inspired, with standard sport front bucket seats, a leather-trimmed steering wheel, and a leather-trimmed shift lever and knob if you opt for the manual. There are even turbine-style air vents and available touches like aluminum sport pedals if you want to further enhance the race car aesthetic of the cabin.
Function With Form
The vehicle has been meticulously crafted around a design philosophy to maximize the potential of the powertrain and deliver the most exhilarating driving experience possible. Virtually every design aspect and component has been optimized to keep weight down.
The GR86 has a unibody frame that mixes high-strength steel with lightweight aluminum, providing a performance-oriented platform designed to optimize handling. The vehicle achieves near-perfect weight distribution, allowing you to enjoy an exciting, responsive experience as you get behind the wheel and put the GR86 through its paces.
Contemporary Cockpit Inside the Classic Exterior
The interior incorporates the latest in Toyota technical innovation to ensure a comfortable and convenient cabin experience. Dual-zone automatic climate control allows for personalized comfort, offering individual temperature settings for the driver and front passenger.
A standard 7-inch digital gauge cluster provides a personalized readout of key performance and vehicle information that’s optimized for different driving modes. When you’re in Track mode, you get the ultimate racing-oriented readout. The digital cluster reanimates to properly match the dynamic driving profile, offering a linear-style tachometer and larger shift lights.
