Toyota 86 Petrol Cars
The Toyota 86 is a well-rounded sports car that caters to enthusiasts and regular drivers alike. It’s one of the most popular choices among those looking for an affordable sports car, and it's perfect for Australian driving conditions.
The 2.0-liter naturally aspirated petrol engine in the 86 produces 152kW of power and 212Nm of torque. This is enough to get it from zero to 100km/h in under eight seconds. The car has a six-speed manual transmission as standard, but there is also an option for a six-speed automatic with paddle shifters.
The Toyota 86 offers agile handling, excellent steering feedback, and precise brakes. It comes with an advanced suspension system which provides better stability while driving around corners. Additionally, the cabin is relatively quiet even when driven at high speeds on the highway, ensuring maximum comfort throughout your drive.
Australian driving conditions are well-suited for the Toyota 86, thanks to its well-engineered suspension and traction control systems which are optimized for varying road surfaces including gravel roads. As a result, the Toyota 86 is equally adept on urban streets as well as winding country roads.
Inside the car's cabin is simple yet functional and spacious enough to seat four passengers comfortably - albeit with slightly less headroom than its sibling Subaru BRZ (with whom Toyota shares the platform). Standard features include dual-zone climate control, cruise control, heated mirrors and a seven-inch infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility.
Toyota's build quality reputation carries over to this model too, meaning that it should hold up over time if maintained appropriately; some potential buyers may be interested to know that servicing cost would likely be higher compared to traditional Toyotas due to their more specialised requirements.
Overall, if you're in the market for a sports car in Australia – whether for occasional Sunday drives or commuting daily – then you will not regret considering this brilliant driver's machine from Japan's auto giant!
