Have you ever felt that the Toyota 86’s front-end design is a little too aggressive? Wished it was less sharp angles and more curves? Then you’ll be glad to hear that the company has recently introduced a new variation of the sports coupe called the Toyota 86 Style Cb.

About the ‘Cb’ portion of the name, after translating the press release which was in Japanese, we found out that it actually stands for ‘Cool beauty’. So if you had that particular thought running in your head, it’s not what you might think it means.

Its name aside, we move on to the design of the 86 Style Cb, which originated from the Toyota 86 x Style Cb concept developed by Toyota’s Gazoo racing division for the 2013 Tokyo Auto Salon.

Right off the bat, the new front bumper and grille is a standout from the car it is based on with a longer nose and new oval-shaped headlights. The fenders also adopt LED-illuminated triple fins and a two-tone paint job can be seen. ‘Cb’ badging is also found around the vehicle.

The interior changes consists of a leather steering wheel and new instrument panel with wood grain materials. Aside from that, everything else is familiarly 86.

Both gearboxes are mounted to the same 2.0-litre four-cylinder FA 20 unit.
