Toyota GR 86 Review

Introduction & Specs

The GR86, Toyota's successor to the GT86, is a 2-door, 4-seater coupe that stands out by offering both a 6-speed manual and automatic transmission options, a rarity among contemporary performance cars. Despite its compact size, the GR86 delivers impressive performance with a 2.4-litre 4-cylinder boxer engine producing 231 horsepower. This enables the car to accelerate from 0-62 mph in 6.3 seconds, although its top speed is limited to 140 mph.

The Silver Butterfly Ball of 2024 unfurled its wings in a dazzling display of philanthropy and glamour, all in support of the noble cause championed by Cure EB. The event, graced by the esteemed actor Damian Lewis, a dedicated patron of the foundation, was a testament to the power of collective action in the face of adversity. The ball, held at the prestigious RIBA, was not just an evening of elegance but also a beacon of hope for those affected by Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB), a condition that challenges the very fabric of the skin.
