Drift21 Update Rev.19740 Adds The Toyota AE86

Last updated on December 16th, 2021 at 06:00 pm

If you like sliding sideways then you’ll be familiar with the legendary 1985 Toyota Sprinter Trueno GT which became integral to the world of drifting, and immortalised in Initial D. And now Drift21 Update Rev.19740 adds the Toyota AE86 to the cars available in the game.

Considering the fairly small list of cars available in the game, and how focused they are, it was a bit surprising it’s taken this long for the AE86 to be included. But now it’s here, along with garage challenges suited to the drift legend, more than 25 new track challenges, and new Elite Drift stickers, along with various changes and fixes.
