Drive a GR86
The Toyota GR86 is a lightweight, rear-wheel-drive coupe for drivers who'd rather feel the road than just cover it. Its 228 hp naturally aspirated boxer engine powers the rear wheels, and at 2,811 lbs, it stays nimble through every bend. If you're browsing a Toyota car rental, this is the one built for fun.
GR86 rentals on Turo come from local vehicle owners, so you book the exact car you want and arrange pickup that fits your plans. Listings offer the six-speed manual or the automatic with paddle shifters — check the listing for the transmission before you book.

Lightweight, rear-wheel-drive balance
The GR86 feels balanced because its weight sits low and its power goes to the rear. The flat boxer engine lowers the center of gravity, and rear-wheel drive leaves the front wheels to handle the steering. A standard Torsen limited-slip differential helps send power evenly to both rear wheels as you exit a turn.
Naturally aspirated 2.4L boxer
The GR86's 2.4L flat-four makes 228 hp at 7,000 rpm and 184 lb-ft of torque at 3,700 rpm. There's no turbo, so power builds in a linear way as the revs climb. You get a steady pull you can predict, not a sudden surge.
That linear delivery rewards you for working through the gears, especially with the manual. It's also a clear step up from the previous Toyota 86, which used a 2.0L engine making 205 hp with the manual. The boxer layout keeps the engine low in the chassis, which feeds the balanced feel you'll notice on every on-ramp and winding road.
Cockpit built around the driver
Slide in and you'll sit low, held in place by bolstered sport seats and facing a dash laid out around the driver. It's a cabin that puts driving first. The GR86 Premium trim adds Ultrasuede and leather seats, and the Yuzu Edition finishes its black cabin with yellow stitching.
The rear seats are small, so treat them as a spot for a jacket, a backpack, or a short hop across town. When you need more cargo room, fold the one-piece rear seatback to expand the 6.3 cu ft trunk. It's a handy trick for a weekend away (pack soft bags, and you'll thank yourself later).
Stand out with a GR86
The GR86 suits drivers who value feel over raw horsepower. It fits a weekend of fun driving, a test drive before buying a sports car, or a coastal or canyon day trip on paved roads. The manual's 20 mpg city and 26 mpg highway rating keeps longer days manageable, and you can compare more sports car rental options on Turo.
Top GR86 features
Choose a manual or an automatic
Three features shape the GR86 experience: your choice of transmission, reconfigurable digital gauges, and everyday tech that stays out of the way.
The GR86 comes standard with a six-speed manual, and a six-speed automatic with paddle shifters is available. That means GR86 rentals on Turo may offer either one, so check the listing before you book. The manual is rated at 20 mpg city and 26 mpg highway.
Pick the manual if you want the full, hands-on experience — your left foot on the clutch and your right hand on the shifter. Pick the automatic if you'd rather relax in traffic and still tap the paddles when the road opens up. Either way, you get the same 228 hp boxer and rear-wheel drive.
Reconfigurable digital gauges
The GR86's 7-in digital gauge cluster gives you three layouts: Normal, Sport, and Track. You can switch the display to suit your drive — a small detail that makes the cabin feel like yours. Each layout changes how the cluster presents your drive.
Track is the most distinctive of the three, and it's purely a display option. It shows a linear tachometer and a shift indicator, so you can watch the revs climb across the screen. Try each layout on your first drive, then keep the view you like best.
Everyday tech that stays out of the way
The GR86 keeps its tech simple and useful. An 8-in touchscreen pairs with wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, so your maps, music, and messages show up right on the screen.
Dual-zone automatic climate lets you and your passenger each pick a temperature — no debates about the thermostat on a long day out. If great sound matters to you, look for a GR86 with the available 8-speaker audio upgrade. Since the phone connection is wired, bring your charging cable and you'll be ready before you leave the curb.

Top tips and things to know before renting a GR86
Get to know your GR86
Your GR86 trip goes smoothest when you know your transmission, pack for a small trunk, and check your trip total.
The GR86 is a 2+2 coupe, so plan for two adults up front and limited space behind them. Pack light — the 6.3 cu ft trunk suits soft bags better than big suitcases. Check the listing for the transmission and trim before you book, too.
If your trip needs more room, you'll find other Toyota models on Turo. A Toyota Camry rental gives you a roomy sedan, and a Toyota Prius rental stretches every gallon. A Toyota 4Runner rental brings SUV space for bigger groups.
GR86 driving tips
A few quick checks before you leave make your GR86 trip smoother:
Confirm whether your listing has the manual or the automatic.
Adjust the low seat and mirrors before you pull away.
Plan your luggage around the small trunk.
Fill up with premium unleaded at the gas station.
How much does it cost to rent a GR86?
The cost to rent a GR86 on Turo depends on the model year, trim, trip length, extras, and delivery. Prices vary by listing, so check your trip total before you book.
You can lower that total a few ways. Book a non-refundable trip at least four days ahead to save 10%. Duration discounts also kick in at three days, one week, and one month.
Planning a month or more? A long-term car rental of 30 days or longer has no trip fee, except in parts of Los Angeles and New York.

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
For questions or information about the third party liability insurance for trips in the US, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site. When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
