Toyota Unveils Surprise 86 Shooting Brake Concept In Australia

Toyota has dropped a bomb at an Australian motoring media event today, unveiling the 86 Shooting Brake Concept - marking the concept’s global debut.

In the unassuming surrounds of Canberra’s Sutton Road Driver Training Centre, Toyota Australia’s design chief, Nic Hogios, pulled back the covers on the second offical Toyota 86 concept, joining the 86 Open Concept of 2013.

Billed strictly as a design study, Hogios explained how the local team took the Shooting Brake from sketch to clay scale model, before submitting the concept to Toyota Japan.
