Rather than fitting a heavy, large capacity powertrain, Toyota has opted instead to go back to its sporting roots, installing a compact, front mounted, free revving petrol engine that drives the rear wheels. The Toyota GT 86 is built on a new platform, with a highly aerodynamic bodyshell stretched tight over the car's mechanical elements.

The anticipation is over: the new Toyota GT 86 sports car makes its world debut at the 2011 Tokyo motor show.
