Reviewer score 81%The GR86 is a joint venture between Toyota and Subaru but only the Toyota version will be sold in the UK this time. It's still full of hard plastics but it's less dated looking than the GT86, and the bits your hands and elbows touch are padded, softened and upped in quality. There's a touchscreen mid-dash which is small-ish but legible, and doesn't dominate your view. At the time of writing, pricing is still being decided.

Reviewer score 77%Toyota claims the new car is quicker, quoting zero to 60 mph in 6.1 seconds with the manual transmission and 6.6 seconds for the automatic. There isn't a massive difference between the base GR 86 and the Premium model when it comes to tech. The Premium does get blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive front headlights.
