Toyota, Subaru confirm new capital alliance (with GT86 and BRZ to live on!)
Toyota and Subaru have announced a new “business and capital alliance”, with the aim of “further developing and strengthening” their long-term partnership.
The deal will see Toyota increase its stake in Subaru to at least 20 percent, with Subaru in return to acquire shares to the equivalent to that monetary amount.
Under the agreement, the Japanese firms will jointly develop "all-wheel-drive models" as well as the next-generation Toyota GT86 and Subaru BRZ. In addition, Subaru will expand its use of Toyota’s hybrid system and the two companies will collaborate in “the field of autonomous driving”.
Toyota and Subaru first agreed to a “business collaboration” way back in 2005, before announcing in June 2019 plans to jointly develop both a platform dedicated to battery electric vehicles and a complete electric model.

Toyota GT86 and Subaru BRZ sports cars confirmed for next generation
Extended alliance between Japanese car makers also includes all-wheel-drive and hybrid technologies
The future of the Toyota GT86 and Subaru BRZ sports cars is secure, after the two Japanese car makers announced an extension of their partnership.
New GT86 and BRZ models were in question, given the high costs of sports car development and relatively low sales. The introduction of the Toyota GR Supra, jointly developed with the BMW Z4, also cast a doubt over whether the firm needed two halo cars. However, today’s news secures both the GT86 and BRZ’s existence for the coming decade.

Next-gen Toyota 86 and Subaru BRZ get green light
Toyota and Subaru have announced details of their deepened collaboration, part of which includes the joint development of second generation Toyota 86 and Subaru BRZ compact sports cars, the two Japanese carmakers confirmed on Friday.
This will come as a relief to fans of small rear-driven Japanese drifting machines as earlier this year it had been strongly rumoured that the ‘affordable’ sports car twins faced the axe, due to Toyota and Subaru having “deviated on their development policies”. Disappointing sales were also given as a possible reason for their possible discontinuation.
However, it’s clear now that Toyota and Subaru have worked out their “development differences” and having kissed an made up, are ready to take the second-generation sports cars to new heights.
The companies did not provide any further details about the next-generation Toyota 86 and Subaru BRZ, but it is likely that the two would follow a similar path to today’s cars, but perhaps with the addition of hybrid drivetrain technology.
After all, included in the expanded partnership is expanding the use of Toyota’s hybrid system in additional Subaru models. As announced earlier in the year, the two companies have also agreed to jointly develop a new platform that’s dedicated to battery-powered vehicles.

Next-gen Toyota GT86 to be rebranded and gain turbo heart - report
A fresh report out of the United Kingdom claims the second-generation Toyota GT86 will be rebranded under the Gazoo Racing banner while also upgrading to a Subaru-sourced turbocharged 2,4-litre engine.
According to Autocar, the new 86- and BRZ-badged twins are likely to launch in 2021, with the Toyota version set to be rebranded as the “GR86” (thus falling in line with the naming convention used for the likes of the GR Supra and GR Yaris).
The British publication reports the second-generation sportscars will be built on Toyota’s TNGA platform (rather than on Subaru underpinnings, as with the original models) and upgrade to a version of Subaru’s turbocharged 2,4-litre flat-four. The latter, of course, could result in far higher outputs than the 147 kW and 205 N.m managed by the current naturally aspirated 2,0-litre unit.

Next-Gen Toyota GT86 (And Subaru BRZ) Coming With More Power
2012 saw the introduction of the Toyota GT86 and Subaru BRZ and although their future was uncertain at one point due to low sales, both companies have committed to the development of a replacement.
The GT86 arrived well before the performance division known as Gazoo Racing was formed but now we have the GR Supra and the exciting GR Yaris so the next GT86 will likely be rebranded to bring it in line with that nomenclature.
The original was built on a Subaru platform but according to Autocar, Subaru’s current architectures are not suited to rear-drive cars, so the new model is set to be built on Toyota’s TNGA platform.

Next-gen Toyota GT86/Subaru BRZ on the way with more power
New sports car could have 255bhp+ generated by a Subaru 'Boxer' engine and will be built on Toyota’s TNGA platform
Toyota and Subaru are ramping up development of a successor to the GT86 and BRZ sports cars – and Autocar has learned that the Toyota version will be rebranded as the GR86.
The GT86 and BRZ were launched in 2012, and their future had been in doubt because of relatively low sales. But both companies have committed to developing a replacement, with the Toyota version a key part of the brand’s growing performance car line-up.

Next-Gen Toyota 86 To Receive Turbo Power
The Toyota 86 as we know it will change dramatically when the next-generation of the compact sportscar is revealed.
UK publication Autocar is reporting the Toyota 86 will undergo quite a metamorphosis for its second generation. The changes are tremendous, firstly the platform used will be a variation of the acclaimed TNGA setup, which underpins things like the Corolla hatch, rcently-revealed Yaris GR and the RAV4 family SUV to name but a few. Secondly, and this will please the petrolheads, the addition of a potent turbocharged motor. The current iteration of 86 is an entertaining little thing to throw about, but you always had that feeling in the back of your mind that the chassis was capable of handling a bit more shove.

Next-Generation Toyota GT86 To Be Called GR86: Report
The Toyota GT86 is getting long in the tooth and there’s been much talk of the next generation. This discussion concerns the next car’s name, and word is Toyota might drop the “GT” moniker.
The GT86's yet-unnamed successor will reportedly be called the GR86—the “GR” no doubt standing for Gazoo Racing, Toyota’s sporting line, according to Autocar. It’s common knowledge Toyota boss Akio Toyoda is a strong supporter of fun, so this tracks.
Per Autocar:
The original GT86 pre-dated the creation of that brand, which started with the GR Supra and will also include the GR Yaris, the first model developed purely by Gazoo Racing. The next GT86 is set to be rebranded to bring it in line with that nomenclature.
The outlet also believes the next GT86 will be built on Toyota’s highly versatile TNGA platform.
In the past, we’ve reported the upcoming GT86 and Subaru BRZ might produce more power because the new cars could use a version of Subaru’s turbocharged, boxer flat-four engine that’s found in the Subaru Ascent. Currently, that engine is rated at 260 horsepower and 277 lb-ft of torque. If anyone ever had complaints about the GT86/BRZ, it’s that their naturally aspirated engines didn’t make enough power.

Hi good people,
I'm having issues with my OEM headunit. It receives power, there are beeps when you press buttons, the back lighting and screen power up but it never gets passed the toyota loading screen as in the picture.
The screen only works when the car is in reverse and the camera feed is active.
I've tried all the usual troubleshooting like disconnecting the battery, hard reseting headunit, checking the plugs and cables etc.
I'm still finding no success...
Is there anyway to bypass the headunit or force it to play a disc or read a USB or auxiliary cable.
Any help or suggestions would be highly appreciated even a temporary solution could work untill I replace the headunit.

New Toyota GR86 (and BRZ) to use Subaru's fresh 1,8-litre turbo flat-four?
A fresh report out of Australia claims the successors to the Toyota GT86 and Subaru BRZ will use the latter automaker’s upcoming turbocharged 1,8-litre flat-four engine.
While Autocar recently claimed the next-generation sportscar twins would likely employ Subaru’s turbocharged 2,4-litre unit (with the GT86 also being rebranded as the GR86), GoAuto.com says a new 1,8-litre “lean-burn” powerplant from Subaru is more likely.

Yes, it’s yet another special edition Toyota GT86
GT86 ‘Black Limited’ will only be sold in Japan
Toyota is still churning out special edition GT86s as though its life depends on it. This is the latest – a black & gold themed 86 called the ‘Black Limited’, of which it will sell precisely 86 cars in its native Japan.
Inspired by the Black Limited AE86 Sprinter Trueno of the late Eighties, the GT86 gets metallic black bodywork, gold 17-inch wheels and a little spoiler. Inside it’s all leather and Alcantara, with a smattering of Black Limited badges so you don’t forget what car it is you’re driving.

Next-gen Toyota 86 coming in 2021
A leaked screenshot from an internal presentation to Toyota dealers in the States suggests the next 86 coupe will debut next year. But, compared with the elemental, naturally-aspirated driver's car we know (and many, love) it will be infused with Gazoo Racing DNA and is most likely to feature a 2.4-litre turbocharged boxer motor.
The image, which was posted on the GR86.org forum, all but confirms that the next-generation coupe, which will again be a collaborative effort between Subaru and Toyota, will have a mid-2021 launch – in the US, anyway – although the impact of COVID-19 may invariably delay the release date somewhat.

U-turn? Fresh report claims new Toyota GR 86 will NOT be turbocharged
A fresh report out of Japan suggests the new Toyota GR 86 and Subaru BRZ will not be turbocharged as previously claimed.
Ever since the two Japanese firms confirmed the joint development of follow-up models to the current Toyota GT86 and Subaru BRZ, there have been rumours aplenty regarding possible powertrains.
Initially, there were suggestions grunt would come from a Subaru-sourced turbocharged 2,4-litre horizontally opposed engine. Then talk turned to Subaru’s turbocharged 1,8-litre flat-four.
The latest report from Japan’s Best Car Web, however, claims a naturally aspirated version of the 2,4-litre unit mentioned above will be employed.
Here, the publication claims, the boxer mill will offer 162 kW and 240 N.m to the rear axle, up from the current 2,0-litre engine’s 147 kW and 205 N.m. Of course, that’d leave sufficient breathing space for the 190 kW entry-level four-cylinder Supra offered in some markets.
