2022 Toyota GR 86: *Hands On* At Toyota's Headquarters – Redline: First Look

A new sports car in an SUV world is a rare thing, but both Toyota and Subaru are introducing two later this year. The 2022 #ToyotaGR86 replaces the old 86, which also replaced the old Scion FRS. It follows the same lightweight pure RWD formula as the original, but the new #GR86 is powered by an enlarged 2.4L F4 making nearly 30 more HP versus its predecessor. With the new GR badge, it promises to be the baby brother to the more expensive and more power Supra. Both the #SubaruBRZ and Toyota GR86 go on sale in the Fall of 2021.

We're also on:

So... Are we team BRZ or team GR86? We're just happy that both Toyota and Subaru is doing a second generation. Stay tuned because we will be driving one of these in a couple months!

I really appreciate how they are keeping the sport cars alive

[mickyle]

I'm so glad that even in today's age we still have companies releasing driver focused N/A lightweight sports cars

Rear drive, naturally aspirated and a manual- checks all the boxes. Looks great too.

When the Datsun 240Z came out in 1969 it was a sensation. This car has the same kind of connection.

In just the last few months, with the new redesign and some early accesses you've gone, I've noticed your channel grow substantially. Hopefully you hit 1M soon!

[shivash]

Long live naturally aspirated engines, long live manual gearboxes and long live rear wheel drive!

It pops. I really like what they've done with the styling.

3:27 That Land Cruiser Heritage Edition though, sadly they are being discontinued.

What a beautiful car . I have the 2017 Toyota 86 automatic and it's a blast to drive. Oh boy, I might have to get this new model .

[ThePsychodo]

That side profile is nice, love the ducktail

[noemercy]

I love it. Finally a nice car with a manual transmission option.

[Peter-rqxn]

It is starting to look more like the Lexus RC. I like it.

[jsanc]

I was skeptical when I saw the first pictures of this chassis months ago. I got to say that I am in love with the looks of it now

[JoseMedina-gfcu]

Toyota looks better for this gen!! I really would love to get one in Neptune blue

[Juergen_Mueller]

Thank you especially for the good camera work, including detailed interior pictures as well!

[perenniallong]

Honestly it's growing on me a lot. The back is my least favorite. But with all the people who hate on it or say it's too slow, you need to realize that the after market support for this car will be insane. Literally anything you don't like, there should be a way to tune or mod. I think they did well with this.

[jonathanrodriguez]

This is more exciting then electric cars ❤️

[MikeLitirous]

That backend with the taillights is VERY Civic/ NSX **current gen** inspired. Still iffy about it myself

[Weyoun]

Cant wait for your full review. I want every detail, automatic, manual, feel. Everything! I am really looking forward to this. I LOVE the look of this version!!
