In a world where electric vehicles and bulky SUVs seem to dominate the road, the 2025 Toyota GR86 dares to be different as a lightweight, rear-wheel-drive performance coupe built for pure driving excitement. Now for sale at Toyota Town in Stockton, this two-door sports car continues to stand out as one of the most thrilling and affordable performance cars on the market. One of only a few high-performance models offered by Toyota, the GR86 proudly wears the GR badge—short for Gazoo Racing, Toyota’s in-house motorsports division. Designed for driving enthusiasts across Tracy, Lodi, Modesto, Elk Grove, and Stockton, the 2025 Toyota GR86 delivers sharp handling, communicative steering, and a perfectly balanced chassis. Whether you choose the slick-shifting manual transmission or the available automatic with paddle shifters, you’ll feel completely connected to the road. Powered by a naturally aspirated 2.4-liter flat-four engine, the 2025 Toyota GR86 accelerates with confidence. In this review, Toyota Town will walk you through all the must-know details of the 2025 GR86, from its performance specs and interior features to its available trims, including the GR86, GR86 Premium, and the new limited-run GR86 Hakone Edition.

Under the hood of the 2025 Toyota GR86 lies a naturally aspirated 2.4-liter flat-four boxer engine that cranks out 228 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque, offering the perfect blend of power and balance. Drivers from Tracy, Lodi, Modesto, Elk Grove, and Stockton can choose between a crisp six-speed manual transmission for maximum engagement or a six-speed automatic with responsive paddle shifters for smooth, quick shifts. Both transmission options come standard with a limited-slip rear differential and rear-wheel drive, making the 2025 GR86 a true driver’s car. Acceleration is brisk, hitting 0-60 MPH in just 6.1 seconds with the manual and 6.6 seconds with the automatic. With Normal, Sport, and Snow drive modes, the GR86 adapts confidently to changing road conditions, while Track Mode, exclusive to manual models, sharpens performance even further. Fuel economy is equally impressive for a sports car: expect 20 MPG city / 27 highway with the manual, and up to 21 city / 31 highway with the automatic.
Step inside the 2025 Toyota GR86, where modern design and classic sports car elements come together in a driver-focused cabin. The interior wraps around you like a true cockpit, with a low seating position that puts you right in the heart of the action. A sculpted dashboard and center console create an immersive feel, while turbine-style air vents and metallic toggle switches add a clean, modern edge. Front and center, the large tachometer reinforces the GR86’s racing DNA. All-black leather accents elevate the interior, appearing on the steering wheel, parking brake handle, and heated front seats—which are deeply bolstered to keep you locked in during spirited driving. The rear seatbacks fold flat, offering added practicality for gear or weekend bags when you’re not carrying passengers. Tech-wise, the 8-inch infotainment touchscreen sits within easy reach, offering intuitive controls and crisp graphics. Two USB ports help keep your devices charged and ready, so you’re always connected.
Trim DetailsThe 2025 Toyota GR86 is for sale at Toyota Town across three thrilling trim levels: GR86, GR86 Premium, and the new GR86 Hakone Edition. Whether you’re seeking the tactile feel of a six-speed manual or prefer the paddle-shifted precision of a six-speed automatic, every configuration is available now at our Stockton dealership.
The entry-level GR86 rides on 17-inch alloy wheels, features chrome-tipped dual exhaust, and boasts performance touches like a Torsen limited-slip differential, multi-link rear suspension, and functional aero vents on the front and wheel arches. Inside, you’ll find sport bucket seats with a G-pattern embossed design, a 7-inch GR digital gauge cluster, an 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and dual-zone automatic climate control. Automatic transmission models also add pre-collision braking and lane departure warning for extra peace of mind. Step up to the Premium trim for upgrades like 18-inch matte-black alloys wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires, and add sleek adaptive LED headlights and a color-matched ducktail rear spoiler. The cabin is elevated with heated sport seats featuring leather-trimmed bolsters and Ultrasuede inserts, aluminum pedals, scuff plates, and a premium eight-speaker audio system. A leather-wrapped steering wheel with red contrast stitching adds the final sporty touch. New for 2025, the Hakone Edition is a striking and exclusive offering limited to just 860 units across the United States. Based on the well-equipped Premium trim, the Hakone Edition brings performance enhancements that sharpen the car’s dynamics. Throttle response has been tuned for quicker acceleration, while retuned dampers and steering deliver crisper handling and a more engaging connection between driver and machine. The suspension tweaks help reduce body roll and improve precision, making the Hakone Edition one of the most rewarding versions of the GR86 to drive. Visually, it stands out with a rich Ridge Green exterior, an exclusive color that reflects the lush landscapes of Japan’s famed Hakone Turnpike, a mecca for driving enthusiasts. It’s paired with bold 18-inch bronze-colored alloy wheels, giving the coupe a more aggressive stance and a touch of retro-inspired flair. Step inside the cabin and you’ll find Tan leather-trimmed sport seats, while bronze accent stitching and trim adorn the shifter, steering wheel, and interior detailing for a cohesive, high-end feel. The standard eight-speaker audio system, dual-zone climate control, and intuitive 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto keep things modern and connected.
