How much does the 2022 Toyota GR86 cost?

Prices are up 2.33% year-over-year — a sign of continued demand for this model year.

With 319 listings available, you have a modest amount of inventory to compare before you buy.

Is the 2022 Toyota GR86 a good car?

Yes — the 2022 Toyota GR86 earns a 4.86/5 user rating and a 7.67/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Performance and Cost effectiveness.

Owners consistently praise its thrilling driving feel, strong performance, good handling, stylish design, and nice interior. The overview also points to fun-to-drive character, easy-to-use technology, and excellent value for money as the main reasons it appeals to you if you want an engaging sports car rather than a practical all-rounder.

The main trade-offs are a cramped back seat and advanced safety features that are not standard with the manual transmission. Even so, the GR86 fits you best if you want a focused, affordable sports coupe with a strong enthusiast appeal. Good and great deals account for 27.9% of listings, which gives you some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2022 Toyota GR86 reliable?

Owners rate it 4.86/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner summary also points to a car that feels enjoyable, strong, and good-handling over time, with several mentions of its fun factor and stylish, well-liked cabin. The expert notes reinforce that dependability angle by describing the car as more comfortable than before, with less cabin noise and a chassis that feels more focused and precise.

Toyota also includes two years or 25,000 miles of free scheduled maintenance and roadside assistance, which helps reduce early ownership costs. For used buyers, the bigger long-term risk is less about mechanical complexity and more about finding a car that has been treated carefully, especially if it was driven hard.

What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Toyota GR86?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 79.3% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still check the history report carefully, because sports cars are often driven more aggressively than average. A pre-purchase inspection matters here, especially if you want to confirm that the drivetrain, brakes, tires, and interior wear all match the mileage. Focus on condition first, then compare equipment and transmission choice against how you plan to use the car.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base car gets 17-inch alloy wheels with Michelin Primacy HP tires, while Premium models add 18-inch wheels with grippier Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires, a ducktail rear spoiler, leather upholstery, and aluminum pedals. If you want the best-value setup, the Premium trim gives you the richer feature set and more grip.
• Powertrain: You get a Subaru-sourced 2.4-liter boxer-four with Toyota’s D-4S fuel-injection system, making 228 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque. Transmission choices are a six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic with paddle shifters, and the engine’s broader torque band is a major upgrade over the previous generation.
• Safety package: The GR86 uses Subaru’s camera-based EyeSight system, but the driver aids are only available with the automatic transmission. Standard features include automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, pre-collision throttle management, lane-departure warning, sway warning, automatic high beams, and lead-vehicle start alert. Premium trim also adds blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive headlights.
• Infotainment: You get a standard 8-inch touchscreen, a 7-inch digital instrument cluster, wireless-style smartphone integration through Apple CarPlay/Android Auto connectivity, Bluetooth, and SiriusXM satellite radio. The digital cluster also adds a lap timer, data traces, and a digital shift light.
• Fuel efficiency: Toyota estimates 21 mpg combined with the manual transmission and 24 mpg combined with the automatic. City and highway estimates are 19/26 mpg for the manual and 20/30 mpg for the automatic.

Which 2022 Toyota GR86 trim should I buy?

The 2022 Toyota GR86 is offered in 2 trim levels: base and Premium.

Here's the short version:

• base: This is the lighter, simpler version, and it still gives you the core GR86 formula: rear-wheel drive, the 2.4-liter engine, the six-speed manual or automatic, and the standard 8-inch touchscreen. It makes sense if you want the lowest entry point and care most about the driving experience.
• Premium: This is the best-value trim if you want the more complete package. It adds 18-inch wheels with grippier tires, a ducktail rear spoiler, leather upholstery, aluminum pedals, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive headlights.

The safety package is tied to the automatic transmission, so if those driver aids matter to you, plan your trim and transmission together.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Toyota GR86?

You should act selectively, because this is still a seller’s market and the best listings can move quickly.

• Deal availability: 27.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 319 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices are up 2.33% year-over-year.
• Clean inventory: 79.3% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $26,191, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 Toyota GR86's resale value?

The current average of $28,099 sits slightly above last year's $27,459.

That upward move suggests the GR86 is holding demand well for a niche sports coupe. If you buy carefully and keep mileage, condition, and service history in good shape, you should have a decent chance of preserving value better than a more ordinary commuter car.

The market also supports that outlook: prices are still rising, and the car’s enthusiast appeal helps keep interest steady. Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.86/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2022 Toyota GR86 safe?

The 2022 Toyota GR86 hasn’t been rated by IIHS or NHTSA yet.

It earns a 7/10 safety score from our experts.

Standard safety equipment includes seven airbags plus stability control and traction control. The driver-assistance suite is available only with the automatic transmission and includes automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, pre-collision throttle management, lane-departure warning, sway warning, automatic high beams, and lead-vehicle start alert. Premium trim adds blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive headlights.

A key caveat is that advanced safety features are not standard with the manual transmission, so if you want the full suite, you need to pay close attention to transmission choice.

Should I buy a 2022 Toyota GR86 or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 27.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 79.3% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices are up 2.33% year-over-year.
• Owners rate it 4.86/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The redesign brings a more powerful engine, more tech features, and a more focused chassis.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $29,409, the 2023 costs more than the current year's $28,099 average.
• It sharpens the driver-focused formula with a more enthusiast-centered feel.

The bottom line: If you want the better value, the 2022 is the smarter buy because it delivers the redesigned GR86 experience at a lower average price. If you’re willing to spend more for the next model year, the 2023 is the better path for buyers who want the freshest version of the same core formula.
