Power on the Toyota 86 is sent to the rear wheels.
The automatic transmission helps offer up a performance-oriented feel on the road thanks to its standard paddle shifters and rev matching. In addition to all of that, updated gear ratios on the manual transmission and more rigid suspension tuning help make the Toyota 86 feel even more responsive behind the wheel than the already fun-to-drive outgoing Scion FR-S. With the automatic transmission, you’ll get an EPA-estimated 32 mpg highway and 24 mpg city. The manual gets an EPA-estimated 28 mpg highway and 21 mpg city.
