2022 Toyota 86

Toyota has again partnered with Subaru for this second-generation, entry-level sports car. Dubbed GR86 this time, the low-slung coupe uses a Subaru-sourced 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine with more horsepower and torque than the outgoing model. The extra verve adds to the driving enjoyment. Handling is superb, proving to be a delight on a track. The intimate cabin features numerous enhancements, such as upgraded seats and infotainment system, that make it more pleasant. Both six-speed manual and automatic transmissions are offered. This is an enthusiast-focused car for someone who prizes handling and value above all else. The automatic version uses Subaru's EyeSight Driver Assist Technology for active driver assist systems. For 2024, AEB with pedestrian detection and highway-speed AEB became standard with both transmissions. BSW and RCTW are optional. 2025 GR86 models get revised throttle, damper, and power steering tuning.

Brand context

About Toyota

Toyota mostly fulfills its reputation for building efficient and exceptionally reliable vehicles. Most of their models do well in our testing, thanks to their impressive fuel economy, comfortable rides, quiet cabins, and ease of getting in and out. All of this makes Toyotas among the best options for used vehicles. The brand was a hybrid pioneer, starting with the original Prius. Toyota has evolved and expanded that technology, and most vehicles in its lineup are available as a hybrid. Toyota also sells a number of plug-in hybrids, which were once called Prime but are now simply referred to as Plug-in. The company also knows how to add a dose of excitement into its lineup. The GR86, GR Corolla, and Supra are legit, fun-to-drive sports cars. However, some models we’ve tested have been disappointing. The company’s EV, the bZ4X SUV, is mediocre.
