Toyota FT-86G Concept car
Toyota will stage the international motor-show debut of its FT-86G Sports Concept car in October at the Australian International Motor Show in Sydney.
The FT-86G is Toyota’s second concept that previews a next-generation rear-wheel-drive sports coupe designed to connect with younger drivers and promote the fun of sports-car driving. The FT-86G is a hotter version of the FT-86 that was revealed at last year’s Tokyo Motor Show.
To earn the “G” moniker – Toyota shorthand for sports conversion models – the concept car has undergone an aggressive styling and performance makeover. Metalwork is much sharper as well as looking sleeker with overall measurements that are slightly longer, wider and lower. A totally redesigned front end includes a larger air intake with visible intercooler as well as a vented bonnet. Rear enhancements for the edgier concept include a large carbon-fibre wing, diffuser and oversized twin exhausts. Underneath the skin, the FT-86G Sports Concept retains the front-engine, rear-drive layout of a classic sports car. Toyota has significantly upped the ante on performance with a specially tuned turbocharged engine. The “G” sits on 19-inch Bridgestone rubber while the interior gains Recaro seats.
