Toyota 86 by Gazoo Racing

Gazoo Racing , the well-known Toyota car tuner, presents several interesting models at the ongoing Tokyo Auto Salon . After the Mark X six-cylinder sedan let's look at the teeth of the four-cylinder coupe 86 .

This was adjusted thanks to the use of knowledge from the 24-hour race at the Nürburgring , in which Gazoo Racing of course participated. This also makes the concept 86 look almost like a racing machine. From the outside, the carbon hood , roof and trunk lid, the large rear wing or the specific design of the wheels will catch your eye. To save weight, which is only 1200 kg as a result, all windows were made of polycarbonate.

Although we do not have detailed specifications available, the output of the four-cylinder gasoline engine remained at least at the standard 200 horsepower and the torque at 205 Nm. A six-speed manual transmission transfers power to the rear wheels. However, in contrast to the engine, the chassis has undergone modifications, which has a new sporty tuning. A mechanical differential contributes to better driving characteristics, carbon-ceramic brakes ensure faster stopping.
