Toyota has addressed our principal complaint with the last generation and has given the GR 86 more horsepower for 2022 - Car And Driver

The 2022 Toyota GR 86 comes with a new powertrain - a 2.4 liter flat-4 making 228 hp which replaces the 2.0L flat-4 making 205 hp in the 2021 model. The engine is paired to a 6-speed manual transmission that will direct all the power to the rear wheels. There is also the option of a 6-speed automatic transmission.

The 2022 GR 86 get its chassis tuned from Toyota's "Gazoo Racing" to focus on track work as well and gets 3 drive modes - Normal, Sport, and Track, and that's why you have the GR name on it. In terms of performance, the new engine reduces the 0-60 time to 6.1-seconds from 7.0 seconds of the previous generation with the manual and 6.6 seconds from 8.0 seconds with the Automatic.

The Chevrolet Camaro is the most powerful making 275 hp and sets the fastest 0-60 time of 5.3 seconds. Following this is the BMW 2-Series which makes 248 hp and then comes the new Toyota GR 86 and with the least power is the Mazda MX-5 RF which makes only 181 hp.

The 2022 Toyota GR 86 does not have an EPA estimated Fuel Economy. But it is an all-new model with a new more powerful engine, we do expect it to have similar numbers to the 2021 model, most probably with give 1 mpg lesser. The 2021 Toyota 86 offers a combined 24 mpg with the manual and a combined 27 mpg with the automatic transmission.

The 2021 Toyota 86 has a 13.2-gallon tank and we expect a similar capacity to it. In comparison, we do expect the fuel economy to be more than the Chevrolet Camaro and be able to give a better driving range than the Mazda MX-5 Miata RF which has a combined driving range of 345 miles.

To show off how sporty the interior of the 2022 Toyota GR86 is, Toyota has included Alcantara upholstery with black leather accents on the deep bucket design seats with side bolsters. The touchpoints for the driver are leather upholstered to give a premium feel and there are silver interior accents to highlight the interior.

Like the previous generation's interior, the 2022 GR86 continues to offer the same 2+2 interior configuration. However, as we do expect the rear seats to have a bit more legroom than the previous model. The interior is expected to continue to offer dual-zone automatic air-conditioning. The previous-generation Toyota 86 offered 6.9 cu.ft. of cargo space, we do not expect it to change much.

Compared to the competition, we do expect similar interior dimensions to the BMW 2 series which also comes with the most cargo capacity as well. In terms of infotainment, the 2022 GR 86 comes with a bigger 8-inch touchscreen as stnadard and is an improvement as the previous model offered a 7-inch touchscreen.

The infotainment system features Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and is capable of NFC pairing, SiriusXM three-month all-access trial subscription, and available Connected services. A 6-speaker sound system will be standard and the GR86 Premium trim will get an 8-speaker sound system. There is also a 7-inch digital cluster that will offer different information layout for each drive mode.

The 2022 Toyota GR86 has the same recognizable silhouette as the previous generation but it does come with an improved look, which includes a new front fascial with a low wide "G Mesh" grille, new headlights with LED DRLs, and also new air intakes. The front fenders also include air vents after the wheels for hot air to exit and improve aerodynamics and cooling.

The rear features new LED taillights and bumpers with larger exhaust tips. The GR86 Premium features a Duckbill spoiler and 18-inch wheels with Michelin Sport 4 tires, 17-inch wheels with Michelin Primacy HP on the base version. A choice of 7 colors are available and they are Track bRED, Trueno Blue, Neptune Blue, Halo White, Steel Grey, Pavement Grey, and Raven Black.

In terms of the dimensions, the Toyota GR86 is expected to be wider than the previous model but not by much we expect it to be wider by an inch or two. However, Toyota has confirmed that the GR86 will weigh just over 2800 pounds, which is a similar weight to the previous model but is only heavier than the MX-5.

The BMW 2-series does come with more power and better performance. However, being a BMW the finishings are going to be better and also increase its weight a bit. But the GR86 will come with its own tuning givng its own unique driving dynamic. The BMW 2-Series is priced higher than the GR86 and is a good option in comparison to it.

2022 Toyota GR86 Vs 2021 Chevrolet Camaro

The Chevrolet Camaro does make more power and comes with better performance as well. The Camaro being a muscle car comes with more space as well as being larger in dimensions than the GR86. However, the new GR86 is track-focused but GR86 also costs more, making the Camaro a good option. 

2022 Toyota GR86 Vs 2021 Mazda MX-5 Miata

The Mazda MX-5 Miata comes with lesser power and also marginally lesser performance. It will also come with seating for two occupants and thanks to the foldable hardtop roof it offers very little space in the trunk. The Mazda MX-5 is also priced higher than the GR86 making it a good option.

The 2022 Toyota GR86 is an all-new model and starts the second generation. This comes with an improved engine and sportier dynamics thanks to Gazoo Racing tuning the vehicle it comes with its own unique driving dynamic and also making the GR86 track-ready as well.
