Toyota GT-86 (2012) CAR review: a second opinion

Toyota GT-86 (2012) CAR review: a second opinion

Rated 4.5 out of 54.5

Anthony ffrench-Constant, 18 May 2012 09:20

So absolutely has the company hung its hat on the environmentally-conscientious peg of hybrid drive technology of late that, until the arrival of this new 2+2, the fastest accelerating production Toyota was… Ta-daaah! The Land Cruiser V8. Mercifully, and not before time, the new 2012 Toyota GT86 changes all that. But only just… Because, drawing on a long heritage of ...

Toyota GT86 coupe (2012) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

On 20 May 2011, CAR was allowed behind the wheel of a Toyota FT-86 development mule to get our own driving impressions and to give feedback to Toyota’s engineers during a secretive test session in Germany. Now, as the car is about to be unveiled at the 2011 Tokyo motor show - badged GT86 - it’s time to reveal all. This was ...

Hyundai Genesis Coupe (2008) CAR review and video

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

CAR Online has just driven Hyundai’s new rear-wheel drive Genesis Coupe. And it’s good. Very, very good. Hyundai hasn’t yet committed to bringing the car to the UK, but our first drive confirms that – like Barack Obama and the US – the Genesis Coupe would be a transformational character for Hyundai. CAR getting hot under the collar about a Korean ...

Mazda RX-8 R3 (2008) CAR review

Mazda RX-8 R3 (2008) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Jesse Crosse, 16 July 2008 14:21

Mazda has been producing rotary engines since the year dot and they’ve become the company’s trademark long after others have given up on the idea. Yet rotary engines – like the new Mazda RX-8’s – are hard to justify.  Compared to a piston engine, they were always known for gobbling fuel, using oil and suffering from premature wear. The upside ...

VW Scirocco GT (2008) CAR review

VW Scirocco GT (2008) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Volkswagen has finally launched its new Scirocco coupe and CAR has tested the first production versions. Anthony ffrench-Constant reviews the new Scirocco and wonders why it has taken VW so long to get around to a Mk3…  Perhaps VW has simply been too busy frantically filling every other market segment it could identify, including some its customers clearly failed to. ...

Audi TT 1.8T (2008) driven CAR review

Audi TT 1.8T (2008) driven CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Just when you though Audi were getting carried away with the TTS and TT TDI we have the much more sensible 1.8 turbo. And no, this isn’t the old car come back to haunt us, but an entry-level version of the new car that goes on sale in 2009. And CAR Online has managed to get behind the wheel before ...

Audi TT 2.0T S-Tronic (2006) CAR review

Audi TT 2.0T S-Tronic (2006) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Haven’t you driven the TT? We’ve already tested the 3.2-litre four-wheel drive Audi TT, but this car’s the cut-price sibling: a front-wheel drive, 2.0-litre turbo which, at £24,625, undercuts its big brother by nearly £5000. The two cars look virtually identical both inside and out. So if 197bhp sounds like plenty and all-weather grip isn’t a priority, the 2.0-litre could ...
