Japan's Exclusive Toyota GR86 40th Anniversary Edition

Limited Edition to Celebrate 40th Anniversary

Toyota has introduced a special limited edition of the GR86, aptly named the 40th Anniversary Limited, to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the iconic Toyota Corolla AE86's launch in 1983. This exclusive model will see only 200 units produced for the Japanese market, with prospective buyers having to participate in a lottery for a chance to purchase one.

Distinctive Colors and Homage Decals

The GR86 40th Anniversary Limited, based on the current RZ grade, offers a choice of two striking colors: Spark Red or Crystal White Pearl. Both options come adorned with unique decals that pay tribute to the classic AE86's red/black and white/black two-tone themes.

Special Interior Touches

Inside the cabin, occupants will find a special touch in the form of embroidered 'Since 1983 40th' script on the interior door trims, which is also applied to the floor mats.

Pricing Variations

The commemorative model is available in two transmission options: a 6-speed manual version, priced at 3.822 million yen (approximately PKR 74.0 lac), and a 6-speed automatic version, which comes at a slightly higher price of 3.92 million yen (about PKR 75.9 lac).

Upgrades Across the GR86 Lineup

In addition to the 40th Anniversary Limited edition, the standard Toyota GR86 receives several notable updates. Most notably, Subaru's EyeSight driver assistance system is now standard on manual gearbox versions, a feature previously exclusive to automatic models.

Other enhancements include improved VSC (Vehicle Stability Control) for enhanced driving stability and safety performance, optional blind spot monitoring for the lower SZ grade (a standard feature on the higher RZ grade), and optional blind spot monitoring for the higher SZ grade. Toyota has also made Brembo brakes and Sachs dampers available as options for SZ grades and higher, both of which come standard on the 40th Anniversary Limited. Furthermore, Toyota has adjusted the electronic throttle output characteristics to enhance controllability.

Pricing for Different GR86 Variants

SZ grade manual: 3.153 million yen (approximately PKR 61.05 lac)
SZ grade automatic: 3.251 million yen (about PKR 62.93 lac)
RZ grade manual: 3.476 million yen (approximately PKR 67.29 lac)
RZ grade automatic: 3.574 million yen (about PKR 69.18 lac)

These updates and the introduction of the 40th Anniversary Limited edition reflect Toyota's commitment to offering an even more engaging and advanced driving experience for GR86 enthusiasts.
