The update of the GR86, announced on August 6, 2026, focuses on the relationship between the front-engine and rear-wheel drive sports car and the driver. The settings for throttle control, electric steering and gear operation have been overhauled.

While the relationship between the gas pedal and acceleration was aimed to be more linear, the experience gained from Super Taikyu races was used in steering control. Solid Gray body color is back; Cabin controls and color details have been renewed in the RZ equipment.

Toyota links the development process with track and test field work. These are the manufacturer's technical descriptions; It should not be read as an independent driving test result. The commercial calendar of the announcement is that dealers in Japan will accept orders starting from August 28.
