Toyota Australia is boosting the safety credentials of its GR86 performance coupe, adding important active safety features to manual grades while bringing additional performance upgrades to the flagship GTS.
Versions equipped with the six-speed manual transmission will now include autonomous emergency braking (AEB) and Lane Departure Alert (LDA) with leading vehicle notice offered on automatic grades. A new optional Performance Pack on GTS grades offers upgrades to suspension and brakes.
Along with AEB and LDA, GR86 manual grades will also gain automatic high beams.
The flagship GR86 GTS grade will now be available with an optional Dynamic Performance Pack which adds ZF Sachs sports shock absorbers. The Dynamic Performance Pack also upgrades the GR86’s brakes with new red Brembo four-piston front callipers and two-piston rear callipers.
New colour options have been added to the GR range, with the GR Supra performance coupe now available in Plasma Orange, which replaces Silverstone Yellow in the colour line-up.
The GR Corolla hot hatch is also now available in the Eclectic Blue hue, paired with contrast blue stitching for the interior trim elements.
