The new 2026 Toyota GR86 Yuzu Edition Is Headed Our Way

We all know that the 2026 Toyota GR86 is going to be a head turner – all of the previous models have caught eyes on the lot at Toyota of Clermont. However, this model year is talking things up a notch with an all new special Yuzu Edition. This special edition sports car stands out from the crowd in its Yuzu Yellow paint, which is actually an homage to the original Scion FR-S Release Series 1.0.. Only 860 of these limited-edition models will be released to the public, so if you want one for your garage, it’s time to head down to Toyota of Clermont.

A Breakdown of Yuzu Yellow

As noted, Yuzu Yellow is a throwback to the retired (and iconic) Scion FR-S. This paint color was featured on the Release Series 1.0, and the bold, citrus-inspired Hugh is a limited edition color so you can count on your new Clermont Toyota being one-of-a-kind.

What’s Performance Like in the New 2026 Toyota GR86?

The 2026 Toyota GR86 sits on the GR86 Premium Model foundation, so you know you’ll have a ride that’s ready for anything. However, this special edition ups the ante with unique add-ons including:

• 18-inch matte black wheels and matching black exterior accents for major contrast against that bright yellow paint
• Brembo brakes for unbeatable stopping power (important in your sports car)
• SACHS Dampers for a crisper, more precise driving experience

Toyota’s goal with the 2026 Toyota GR86 was so balance style and function, and this car perfectly embodies both.

What about under the hood? Here you’ll find the engine that’s been powering this sports car the past few years. The 2026 Toyota GR86 sports the same exciting naturally aspirated FA-24 boxer engine that gives you 228 horsepower and 184 lb-ft torque. Other highlights on this Clermont Toyota include Torsen limited-slip differential and your choice of a six-speed manual or automatic transmission. We also love:

• The fact that you can put the pedal to the metal. The manual transmission gets from 0-60 mph in 6.1 seconds, and the automatic gets from 0-60 mph in 6.6 seconds.
• There’s a new tune on the 2026 Toyota GR86 thanks to Gazoo Racing. You’ll have a better throttle response, smoother torque delivery, crisp handling, and sharper response. All in all, you’ll get the ride of a lifetime.

The 2026 Toyota GR86 was refined to be as light as possible this year, too. The manual model has a curb weight of just 2,811 pounds, while the automatic has a curb weight of just 2,851 pounds. This is due to aluminum panels, lighter seats, and new adhesives. This helps bring down curb weight and ensure quick pickup and major agility.

We Love the 2026 Toyota GR86 Interior This Year

Ready to climb inside the cabin and see what it’s like to sit in the 2026 Toyota GR86? The Yuzu Edition pulls out all the stops with sleek black Ultrasuede seats and yellow highlights. We also love bright yellow stitching and accents throughout the cabin that add pops of color. You’ll love the lux minimalist style of the cockpit, as well as the 8-inch touchscreen audio system and an upgraded 8-speaker audio system.

Technology in This Clermont Toyota Sports Car

Let’s talk about technology – both safety and convenience abound in the 2026 Toyota GR86. Here’s what you can expect when you climb into the driver’s seat this year.

• Core safety features like the Pre-Collision System and Lane Departure alert work to ensure your peace of mind behind the wheel.
• Toyota Star Safety System is standard on the 2026 Toyota GR86, which means you’ll have vehicle stability control, anti-lock brakes, and traction control.
