Enthusiasts across Europe eagerly awaiting the new GR86 are facing a mix of excitement and uncertainty regarding pricing and availability. Initial reports from Spain offer a glimpse into the European Gr86 Price landscape, alongside news of potential order delays and specification adjustments.
One GR86 reservation holder in the Canary Islands, Spain, shared their purchase price for a pavement grey GR86 with “Sport” trim – a European equivalent to the Premium model – at €38,932. This Sport trim includes appealing upgrades such as 18-inch wheels, leather heated seats, parking support, and aluminum pedals, enhancing the base model’s appeal.
However, alongside price information, comes news of delays. Spanish dealerships are reportedly pushing back the order opening date to October. Adding to the potential frustration, there’s speculation that Toyota may implement a direct-to-consumer online ordering system, potentially creating a high-demand, limited-availability scenario. This could make securing a GR86 feel akin to抢票 for a major concert.
Furthermore, whispers from dealerships suggest potential modifications to the European GR86. Rumors indicate Toyota might be introducing an additional, more conservative driving mode with a more sensitive traction control/ESP setting. The rationale cited is that the current sport mode is considered “too nervous” for the average European driver. While this remains unconfirmed, it raises questions about potential differences in driving dynamics for the European market.
Alternatively, some speculate that the delay might be related to addressing the engine sealant issue that has affected earlier models. Regardless of the reason, the wait for the GR86 in Europe continues, leaving prospective buyers in suspense regarding the final GR86 price, specifications, and delivery timelines. As order books remain closed and details are scarce, European GR86 enthusiasts are left hoping for clarity and a smooth launch in the near future.
