How much does the 2022 Toyota GR86 cost?

Prices are up 1.07% year-over-year — a sign of continued demand for this model year.

There are 322 listings available, which gives you 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 fun-to-drive character, strong performance, good handling, stylish design, and nice interior. The overview also points to an engaging, affordable sports-car formula that prioritizes the driving experience over practicality.

The trade-offs are clear: the back seat is cramped, and advanced safety features are not standard with the manual transmission. That makes it a better fit if you want a focused sports coupe than if you need everyday passenger space.

Good and great deals account for 33.9% of listings, which suggests there are still worthwhile opportunities in the market.

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 thrilling, enjoyable, and strong on performance, which supports the idea that buyers are happy with the ownership experience.

The expert evaluation reinforces that dependable feel by describing the car as improved, more comfortable than before, and better sorted in its chassis and drivetrain. Toyota also includes two years or 25,000 miles of free scheduled maintenance and roadside assistance, which helps reduce early ownership friction.

For used buyers, the main long-term risk is less about mechanical drama and more about whether the car was treated like the performance coupe it is.

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

Accident-free inventory is solid at 78% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still run a history report on any car you’re considering, even if the listing looks clean. Prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the car has been driven hard or modified. Focus on overall condition, because this model’s appeal depends heavily on how well it has been maintained and whether the cabin and drivetrain still feel tight.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base car keeps the cabin simple, while Premium models add a ducktail rear spoiler, aluminum pedals, leather upholstery, and grippier tires. If you want the best value, the Premium trim is the one to compare carefully against the base car.
• Powertrain: You get a Subaru-sourced boxer-four with Toyota’s D-4S fuel-injection system, plus a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic. The 2.4-liter engine makes 228 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque, and the torque arrives earlier than before for stronger everyday response.
• Safety package: Toyota’s EyeSight camera-based suite includes automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, pre-collision throttle management, lane-departure warning, sway warning, automatic high beams, and lead-vehicle start alert. Those aids are only available with the automatic transmission, and Premium adds blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive headlights.
• Infotainment: You get an 8-inch touchscreen, a 7-inch digital instrument cluster, wireless-style smartphone connectivity through Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, Bluetooth, and SiriusXM satellite radio. The digital cluster also adds track-friendly features like a lap timer, data traces, and a shift light.
• Fuel efficiency: Toyota estimates 21 mpg combined, 19 mpg city, and 26 mpg highway with the manual, or 24 mpg combined, 20 mpg city, and 30 mpg highway with 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 experience: the 2.4-liter engine, rear-wheel drive, a six-speed manual or automatic, an 8-inch touchscreen, and the 7-inch digital cluster. Choose it if you want the purest entry point and care most about keeping the price down.
• Premium: This is the better-equipped choice if you want the most complete version of the car. It adds the ducktail rear spoiler, 18-inch wheels with grippier tires, aluminum pedals, leather upholstery, and more safety gear such as blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert. It’s the trim to target if you want the best-value blend of features and driving enjoyment.

The safety package is only fully available with the automatic transmission, so that’s an important trim-and-transmission detail to keep in mind.

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

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop patiently but still move quickly on the right car.

• Deal availability: 33.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 322 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices are up 1.07% year-over-year.
• Clean inventory: 78.0% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $26,192, 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 $28,075 sits slightly above last year's $27,778.

That modest increase suggests the market has held up reasonably well for this model year. If you buy carefully and keep the car in good condition, you should have a decent shot at preserving value better than you would with a less desirable sports coupe.

The price trend also shows that demand has remained steady enough to support current pricing. For a future seller, that means a clean, well-kept GR86 should still attract attention from shoppers looking for an affordable enthusiast car.

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 published crash-test ratings yet.

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

Standard safety equipment includes seven airbags, stability control, and traction control. Toyota’s EyeSight camera-based suite adds automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, pre-collision throttle management, lane-departure warning, sway warning, automatic high beams, and lead-vehicle start alert, but those driver aids are only available with the automatic transmission. Premium trim also adds blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive headlights.

The main caveat is that advanced safety features are not standard with the manual transmission, so manual buyers give up some driver-assistance coverage.

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:

• 33.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 78% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices are up 1.07% year-over-year.
• Owners rate it 4.86/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The expert review highlights a more powerful engine, improved chassis rigidity, and a better infotainment system.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $29,492, the 2023 costs more than the current year's $28,075 average.
• It sharpens the driver-focused formula with even more road connection and a more enthusiast-centered feel.

The bottom line: If you want the better value, the 2022 is the smarter buy because it already delivers the core GR86 experience with strong owner satisfaction and a reasonable market price. If you’re willing to pay more for the next model year’s slightly more focused enthusiast appeal, the 2023 is the alternative to compare.
