Interior – cabin and load space

The GR86’s interior design goal was to deliver the best possible layout for usability and operation of the car’s systems, with a strong horizontally configured instrument panel that gives the driver a wide field of vision and helps them focus on the business of driving. Throughout, there is a sense of harmony in the design.

Around the driver, function controls are designed and located for intuitive recognition and operation, including an air conditioning panel in the centre console with large LED-illuminated dials and piano key switches, and door armrests with integrated release handles. The functionality of the centre armrest has been improved with cup/small bottle holders, two USB ports and an AUX socket.

The new front sports seats feature supportive pads that are independent of each other, ensuring a slim design and good body-holding. A walk-in release lever on the front seat shoulder makes for easy access to the rear.

The interior colour-ways also reflect the driving focus – all black, with silver accents, or black with deep red upholstery details, stitching, carpets and door cards.

The rear seats can be folded down using release catches in the cabin, or a release strap in the boot. When folded, there is load space big enough to take four wheels – ideal for those driving their GR86 to and from track days.

This is the red and black from the global GR86 launch, Japanese market , hopefully this red option will be offered in Europe 🤞
 
The red is lovely and probably the option I'd go for but I'm thinking its only available to the Japanese.

Toyota may be kind to us as we will only get the GR86 for two years and offer the red to us 🤔🤞

Having seen a few photos owners from around the globe have posted, they all appear to have the silver seat trim 🤔 If the trim is silver I’m starting to think Pavement Grey (if we get it) would be a good match 😎

Having read the European press release again It says:

“The interior colour-ways also reflect the driving focus – all black, with silver accents, or black with deep red upholstery details, stitching, carpets and door cards.”

So, we should at least get the red option on the top spec models even if it is only available on certain body colours , whatever they may be , 🤞 we at least get the same as JDM and North America.

Now that could be an interesting choice and a deciding factor on body colour if the red is not available across every colour 🤔

This is undoubtedly going to be a bit marmite but I think these GR 'marble carbon effect' panel sets look great. Car interiors are usually very boring, I like the idea of adding some colour and pattern. I will be ordering a set for my car.

As you say they are a bit “marmite“ but as with any modification if the owner likes and enjoys it then it’s right for them. I’d like to see those in the flesh to make my mind up, photos often don’t do justice to the parts. 🤔
 
I recently saw some TRD carbon interior bits in a GRY we drove here, one of the first ones a promo/safety car it had lots of TRD bits on it



They looked terrible to be fair, faded, washed out grey, might be our high UV, so pleased I didn't get any

These bits shouldn't do the same ?

It does look cool but at £385 i don't think it's worth it. Also, it's not genuine forged carbon fibre. The TRD website states it's made of Resin(Acrylic).

I found a company called second stage in Japan who do a similar thing without the GR Tax that these parts come with :ROFLMAO: think it works out less than half that cost.

I've had a look at their website and it doesn't appear cheaper. Y8800 = £55. Also it doesn't appear to be genuine carbon fibre but instead it's plastic with a carbon fibre print.

The bits I wanted, gear gaitor surround, door switches, door handles, and passenger dash trim comes in at Y34100 = £210, OK its not less than half which is what it originally thought, that's still quite a saving on £385 for the official stuff, although I haven't figured out postage from Rakuten so I will try other suppliers.

None of these trick bits will be real carbon, If you want real carbon dig deep, it won't take many pieces to go into 4 figures and I don't think I've seen any crushed/forged carbon, only conventional weave, door switch covers for examples are £240 on their own from whifbitz.

I've found some bits on AliExpress that are reasonable and genuine carbon fibre.
