　The body colors are available in seven colors: Crystal Black Silica, Spark Red, Crystal White Pearl, Bright Blue, Ice Silver Metallic, Magnetite Gray Metallic, and Sapphire Blue.

GR86 born by joint development with Subaru

　The GR86 was born by joint development with Subaru.In September 2019, we agreed with Subaru's "New Business Capital Federation" to accelerate "better car creation" in new areas, such as joint development of the new BEV (battery electric vehicle) "TOYOTA BZ4X".He together with the desire to "keep the excitement of sports cars and excitement and the pleasure of running," he jointly developed a sports car that brought out the individuality of the two companies.

　The features of the GR86 are "GR -like running", such as "the inside of the hand" and "a linear response in the limit area, and a crisp run" while sharing the base of the car with the Subaru "BRZ".Focus on giving "the taste of".As a result of pursuing the "taste of GR -like running" while inheriting the tradition of 86 and working hard with the Subaru Development team, the 86 has been reborn as GR86, which has a "more direct and pleasant run in a higher dimension".I am.

From "86" to "GR86", a new car name logo

　In the exterior, the car name logo has been renewed as it is reborn from "86" to "GR86".The fender top, which passed the horizontal from the belt line, was a form that claims FR sports, and the lower underbody and the back of the cabin express the wide stance and low center of gravity reminiscent of running at the same time.The front uses "Functional Matrix Grill" dedicated to GR brand.Both the expression of functionality and emotionalness are balanced.

　In the interior, optimal arrangement of the horizontally configured instrument panel and switches, etc., and realizes a space where you can concentrate on driving.

　The meter uses a Boxer meter (7 inch color + LCD LCD meter).The opening animation with the motif of the piston of the horizontally opposed engine has been enhanced before running.The meter display changes by driving mode, the speed is displayed large in the circular tachometer in "Normal mode", and in "Sport mode" (AT only), the tip and ring of the taco gauge are red, and "Track mode" racing in "Track mode".The number of revolutions and the like are displayed by referring to the meter of the car, and the sporty running is also visual.

　The front sheet has an independent pad shape of the body holding the body, adopts a lightweight sheet, and uses a material with excellent grip on the sheet skin so that it can withstand the front, rear, left and right G by sports driving.The sitting comfort that makes you feel a sense of unity with the car is realized.

2.A horizontally opposed 4 -cylinder engine increased to 4 liters

　The engine is a maximum output of 173kW (235ps)/7000rpm, a horizontally opposed 4 -cylinder that generates a maximum torque of 250nm/3700rpm..Uses a 4 -liter engine.The feature of "lightweight compact and low center of gravity" is the same, but the conventional 2.0 from the liter 2.Improved power performance by increasing the displacement to 4 liter.0-100km/h acceleration performance 7 of the conventional type.4 seconds to 6.I raised it to 3 seconds.At the same time, the response was improved, and a feeling that stretched without stress until the high rotation range was achieved.

　In addition, "directly injected in the cylinder" in which fuel is injected directly into the combustion chamber, a normal "port injection" that is injected into the intake port, and a dedicated twin injector that optimally controls these two types according to the driving status.D-4S is adopted.We have integrated with horizontally opposed engines equipped with variable valve timing that enhances intake and exhaust efficiency.

Inherit "Ultra low center of gravity FR package"

　The body size is 4265 x 1775 x 1310mm (total length x width x total height, total height is a numerical value containing antenna, roof height is 1280mm), wheelbase is 2575mm.The package and size inherit the conventional model, keep them almost as they are, keep the overall and hip points low, and set the seat position inside the vehicle to improve the center of gravity and circulation.You can experience the sense of speed at acceleration and the feeling that the car moves like a limb.

　The body improves the rigidity of the body, aiming for the performance that allows you to feel the fun of running in any speed range, from city riding to limit driving.By improving horizontal bend rigidity by about 60 % and twist rigidity by about 50 % compared to the conventional type, excellent maneuvering stability, such as light handling in high -speed corners, has been ensured.In addition to the enlargement and adoption of high -tension steel plates, the front fender, engine hood, engine undercover, and roof are made of aluminum material to thoroughly designed lightweight.

Aerodynamic items that make use of feedback from motor sports

　Aerodynamic performance uses a front air outlet that has been backed back from the motor sports tank, a side silence poofler and a duck tail.Repeatedly performed actual vehicle driving evaluation and verification in cave, ensuring excellent maneuvering and stability, including the ground contact and rear stability.

　In addition, we have prepared the customization parts "GR PARTS" that maximizes the charm of GR86.We have a wide lineup of products so that you can enjoy the GR86 from sports driving to everyday driving.
