Performance

Street-Ready Attitude

The sharp, strong suspension, low centre of gravity, and near-perfect weight distribution, as well as Electric Power Steering (EPS) tuning for an enhanced, more controlled drive, contribute to the GR86’s precision handling. A torque-sensing limited-slip rear differential keeps you in control at all times, while modifications to throttle characteristics make for better acceleration, fuel economy and drivability. The GR86’s dampers have also been effectively tuned for better shock absorber adjustments, resulting in improved driving performance and handling. One of the lightest sports cars on the market, it’s perfect for beating the stopwatch and getting your pulse racing.

The GR86 has been manufactured to deliver maximum performance on both the road and the track. The large, naturally aspirated 2.4-litre flat-four petrol engine produces 174kW @ 7000r/min and 250 Nm peak torque @ 3 700 rpm. Its D4-S dual-injection fuel system, which comprises both direct and port injection, has been re-tuned to deliver a more aggressive throttle response.
