The GR86 sports coupe is the spiritual heir to the Corolla Sport GT-S, codenamed AE86 and sold from 1983-1987. Developed alongside the Subaru BRZ, it features a naturally aspirated 2.4-litre four-cylinder boxer engine rated at 228 horsepower. The chassis is tuned for sporty handling, but it comes at the expense of ride quality. For 2024, a limited-edition model called Trueno is available, paying homage to the original from the 1980s.
