Toyota GT86 Hijau British Racing Patut Di Sini Sekarang

Kereta ini mula-mula dipamerkan pada bulan Februari 2019 sebagai model Jepun sahaja dan dengan jumlah terhad tersedia untuk dijual. Ramai peminat 86 berharap untuk versi Supercharged atau versi Turbocharged yang lebih baik untuk mengeksploitasi casis lebih mendalam lagi. Namun, ia adalah versi yang sangat menarik sekali lagi untuk 86 dan kami yakin penjualannya di Jepun melebihi pengeluarannya dan pemiliknya gembira.

Sekarang, hampir setahun kemudian kereta ini mudah dibawa masuk oleh pengimport kereta recon (Pemegang Permit yang Diluluskan) untuk Malaysian terpilih (tidak banyak unit akan dijual di Jepun).

Walaupun bilangan variasi tema GT86 tidak lagi dapat dipertimbangkan. Rakyat Malaysia perlu menunggu hingga 2020 untuk tafsiran bergaya Toyota sporty ini tiba di sini, dengan harapan. Mengenai GT86 British Green ini, versi terhad untuk pasaran Jepun. Ini dengan segera menerangkan roda stereng sebelah kanan pada gambar dalaman.

Digelar ‘British Green Edition’, 86 khas ini hanya dijual sebagai model domestik Jepun sahaja dan harga jualannya adalah ¥ 3,251,880 iaitu kira-kira RM120,785 sebelum cukai dan pengangkutan tempatan.

Dilengkapi dengan rim gangsa dengan caliper merah Brembo. Malah spoiler belakang tidak boleh kalah. Kokpit menggabungkan kulit coklat hitam dan cognac, dengan jahitan coklat untuk jahitan hitam dan hitam untuk bahan dalaman coklat.

Memang padu.

KENYATAAN MEDIA: On the drive assembly or the chassis is not affected. Just like every Toyota GT86, the British Green Edition relies on a 2-liter boxer engine of 200bhp. Also thoroughly modern is 86’s athleticism. Its 2.0-liter boxer four-cylinder engine, fed by Toyota’s D-4S Dual Injection System, delivers a healthy dose of 205 hp and 156 lb.-ft. of torque with the six-speed manual transmission (200 hp and 151 lb.-ft. of torque with the six-speed automatic).

Among the engine’s high-performance features used to extract just over 100 horsepower per liter of displacement is the Toyota-innovated D-4S Dual Injection system that combines direct-injection and port-injection technologies. The direct-injection system provides a cooling effect in the cylinders, which allows the engine to use a very high 12.5:1 compression ratio for maximum power. The port fuel injectors, meanwhile, come into play during light- and medium-load conditions to maximize combustion efficiency.

Without question, 86 is a thoroughly entertaining, well-balanced machine when the road gets curvy. But it also is an economical commuter when traffic builds, or when a nonchalant cruise is on the menu. The 86 range achieves an EPA-estimated 24 mpg city and 32 mpg highway when equipped with a six-speed automatic transmission and 21 mpg city and 28 mpg highway with the six-speed manual.

86’s extraordinary low weight benefits fuel economy and agility. At just under 2,800 lbs. (with six-speed manual transmission), 86 is among the lightest sports cars on the market. An ultra-low center of gravity and low 0.29 coefficient of drag (Cd) (0.27 Cd on 86 GT) complete the focus on pure performance and impressive fuel economy.

It’s no mistake that its engine’s “square” dimensions (equal bore and stroke) are 86 mm. For ardent Toyota fans, though, ‘86’ is homage to the AE86, the global name for the Toyota Corolla GT-S. It was an affordable, agile, rear-drive sports coupe with a high-revving 1.6-liter engine that earned a reputation for being a blast to drive. In Japan, it was known as “hachi-roku,” meaning 8-6. Today, many enthusiasts build them into drift machines. On the new model, ‘86’ logos have been incorporated into a badge on the front fender, as well as inside the headlamps.
