Toyota Gr Yaris

The GR Yaris is a performance-oriented variant of the Yaris produced by Toyota, which is built on a combination between GA-B and GA-C platforms, thus shared a few parts from the standard Yaris. Succeeding the limited-production Vitz/Yaris GRMN and Vitz GR in Japan, it was first shown at the Tokyo Auto Salon in 2020. Built as a homologation model for the FIA World Rally Championship, Toyota Motors needed to produce 25,000 units or more in a continuous twelve month production. It is available in two engine options: a Gazoo Racing-built, turbocharged and direct/port-injected 1.6-litre G16E-GTS engine that produces 192–200 kW (257–268 hp; 261–272 PS) and 360–370 N⋅m (266–273 lb⋅ft) of torque, and a standard 1.5-litre 88 kW (118 hp; 120 PS) M15A-FKS engine found in the lower Yaris models. In Japan other engine options are only available in RS trim. 

The G16E-GTS engine is mated to a 6-speed V16-series intelligent manual transmission (iMT) and GR-4 permanent four-wheel drive system. It has a claimed that it can accelerate 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) in 5.2–5.5 seconds and has an  top speed of 230 km/h (143 mph). The M15A-FKS-powered RS variant is only mated to a continuously variable transmission and front-wheel drive system.

Unlike the standard Yaris, the GR Yaris is only available in the bespoke three-door hatchback bodywork. It is built at the "GR Factory" assembly line in Motomachi plant.
