The Toyota GR86 proves that driving excitement doesn’t have to come with a hefty price tag. With its 228-hp flat-four engine, rear-wheel drive, and manual transmission, the GR86 embraces a back-to-basics approach that prioritizes pure driving pleasure. Its compact design, sharp steering, and agile handling deliver a thrilling experience, while the cabin, though small, offers ample space for front passengers. The GR86 stands out in a market of compromise, with few competitors aside from its mechanical twin, the Subaru BRZ, and the Mazda Miata. For 2025, it earns a well-deserved spot on both the 10Best and Editors’ Choice lists, proving that when it comes to blending fun and affordability, the GR86 remains a top choice.
