The 2025 Toyota GR86 delivers an authentic sports-car experience that will excite any driving enthusiast. With well-rounded performance, generous standard features, and an unbeatable price, this coupe offers thrills unmatched by any rival.
Exterior Design
The GR86 base model sits on 17-inch alloy wheels, and the rear displays the distinctive “GR86” badging. The dual exhaust pipes feature eye-catching chrome tips, and the power-foldable outside mirrors boast heating capabilities.
The Hakone Edition trims feature exclusive Hakone badging in the rear. Higher trims feature upgraded 18-inch alloy wheels, available in matte black or matte bronze finishes, paired with glossy black lug nuts.
Lighting
The base model’s exterior lighting system includes projector-style auto-leveling LED main headlights, Automatic High Beams, LED turn-signal indicators, LED combination taillights, and a deck-lid-mounted LED backup and stop light. The Gr86’s body features LED side marker lights, and LED daytime running lights are standard across the lineup.
Performance
The 2025 GR86’s functional front grille features a black finish with a matrix design, including a G-mesh insert, a GR badge, and functional air-inlet ducts. The coupe’s rear-bumper-integrated lower valance, the color-keyed shark-fin antenna mounted on the roof, and the front-wheel-arch air-outlet vent enhance aerodynamics and give the GR86 a bold style and distinctive personality.
Take a Look Under the Hood
Each entry in the latest GR86 lineup houses a 2.4-liter four-cylinder DOHC 16-valve boxer-four engine. The engine is naturally aspirated as well as horizontally opposed, providing quicker throttle response, smoother operation, greater reliability, and improved weight distribution with a low center of gravity. The 2025 lineup offers a choice of either a six-speed manual transmission and a six-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission with paddle shifters.
The base model comes equipped with a MacPherson strut front suspension and a multi-link rear suspension, with the option to upgrade both to SACHS damper-equipped versions. The base and Premium trims feature circuit-tuned coil springs, a rear-suspension stabilizer bar, robust coil springs, and iron front knuckles. The 2025 GR86 offers plenty of braking power, featuring two-piston floating-caliper steel front disc brakes with ventilated rotors, one-piston floating-caliper steel rear disc brakes with solid rotors, and a center-mounted hand brake.
Thin-Film Transistor Gauge Cluster
The GR86’s onboard digital multi-information display measures seven inches and greets you with GR-logo and boxer-engine animations when you start the engine. This helpful screen displays all the typical meters, along with your average trip speed, driving time and miles traveled, a stopwatch/lap timer, current and average fuel consumption, RPM and horsepower/torque curves, and a G-force friction circle with both historical and instantaneous data.
