2019 Toyota 86

When you purchase this sports car, you'll have your pick of three trim levels: the 86, the 86 GT, and the TRD Special Edition, which is a limited-production trim new for this model year. On the base 86, your exterior equipment will include sleek, automatic LED headlights and alloy wheels. A number of dealer-installed accessories are also available for this model, including a performance exhaust and bigger wheels.

The midrange GT trim comes equipped with an aerodynamic underbody panel that is both eye-catching and reduces wind resistance, and this trim also offers a bold rear spoiler and LED fog lights. On the TRD Special Edition, you'll find sharp features such as a premium exhaust system, 18-inch wheels, a spoiler, and unique front and rear bumpers.

Whichever model of the 2019 86 you choose, you'll enjoy first-class engine power. All three models come standard with a 2.0-liter engine that is paired with a six-speed manual transmission and outputs 156 pound-feet of torque and 205 horsepower. If you choose the available automatic transmission, your engine will be slightly less powerful with ratings of 151 pound-feet of torque and 200 horsepower.

A variety of performance features are available on the 86, particularly when you choose the TRD Special Edition. On this top trim level, you'll enjoy Brembo brakes that improve stopping power, high-performance tires that firmly grip the road, and upgraded dampers that lead to much crisper handling.

While the 86 is primarily designed for performance, the interior of this vehicle still provides some creature comforts. With the GT trim, you'll have heated front seats that are covered in supple leather and include attractive contrast stitching, as well as a dual-zone, automatic climate-control system that helps you maintain your perfect temperature. Inside the TRD Special Edition, you'll find stylish features such as red seat belts and contrast stitching in black and red.

The Toyota 86 also offers numerous technology features that can improve your driving experience. Bluetooth connectivity comes standard so you can enjoy hands-free calling and music streaming, and voice commands are also standard for controlling your tech features without taking your hands off the wheel. With the GT trim, you'll also have a 4.2-inch display that provides real-time information about your cornering force and engine performance.

Hill-start assist control is an exciting standard 86 safety feature that will stop your vehicle from rolling when you're parked on an incline and move your foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator. Six air bags come standard on this sports car to protect you during an accident, and there are also intuitive standard features such as vehicle stability control and anti-lock braking.
