Describe the Toyota 86.
Subaru’s Gunma assembly factory is where the Toyota 86 and Subaru BRZ, two 2+2 sports cars jointly developed by Subaru and Toyota, are built.

The 2+2 fastbackcoup is distinguished by its naturally aspirated boxer engine, front-engine, rear-wheel-drive configuration, 53/47 front/rear weight balance, and low center of gravity. It is also noted for taking design cues from Toyota’s earlier AE86, a small, light, front-engine/rear-drive Corolla variant that was well-liked for Showroom Stock, Group A, Group N, Rally, Club, and drift racing.
Toyota marketed the sports car as the 86 for the first-generation model in Asia, Australia, North America (as of August 2016), South Africa, and South America;[2] as the Toyota GT86 in Europe; as the 86 and GT86 in New Zealand; as the Toyota FT86 in Brunei, Nicaragua, and Jamaica; and as the Scion FR-S (20122016) in the United States and Canada.

The GR86 moniker is used by Toyota to refer to its Gazoo Racing division while marketing the second-generation vehicle.

What does SR5 on a Toyota signify?
The SR5 was the top trim level on numerous Toyotas in the 1980s. When a truck had a five-speed manual transmission, it was considered a luxury. SR stood for Sport Rally, and SR5 was the Sport Rally Five Speed. However, that was back when Toyota’s compact pickup was simply known as the Toyota Pickup. Tacoma didn’t become popular until 1995. What does a Tacoma’s SR package entail? What makes SR and SR5 different from one another?
How does 22RE translate?
The 22RE was the 22R’s fuel-injected variant. The engines were still being produced in 1995. A turbo version, designated 22RET or 22RTE, was only manufactured from 1985 to 1988. The engine’s 22REC mark indicated it complied with all California emissions regulations.
What was the name of the old Toyota trucks?
The Toyota truck was the Hi-Lux from 1968 until 1995. It was initially only available in a short wheelbase form for the United States, although being built in Japan. Later, there would be a huge range of combinations available for this. It was meant to be a versatile car that could be used as a daily driving or a work truck. This variety, combined with its robustness, helped keep sales brisk on worldwide markets.
The Hi-Lux was so resilient that the Top Gear crew attempted to destroy it by setting one on fire and throwing it into the ocean, among other tests. In the United States, the name was changed to “Toyota Pickup” in 1975.
