    Really good video and I think you captured the differences well but although I think comparing the two is interesting, ultimately each car addresses a different market.
    The Yaris was conceived as a homologated WRC car and excels on rally terrains as well as tight twisty B roads. The Corolla is a far more mainstream road car designed for a much wider range of daily duties.
    As a GRY owner I’d love to drive the Corolla (I’m sure it’s a great car), but where I live, that +200kg difference takes way the essence of what makes the GR Yaris so special to me.

    Great video, I have a GR Yaris Rallye and considered getting a Corolla for the extra bootspace however as others said the GR Yaris is just too special a vehicle, with its bespoke chassis and a homologation special i just love it so much.
    Just want to say though that torque is actually the more important figure, but manufacturers like to claim more horsepower for marketting. So it would have been better if the Corolla gained more torque as well. The saying torque gets you there, horsepower keeps you there, so the Corolla really would be less zippy around daily driving because it has similar torque output but weighs 200kgs more than a GR Yaris. Thats almost 3 extra passengers in a GR Yaris, feel how sluggish the car gets 😅
    Other thing to note is the extra weight affects cornering and braking as well. Any tuner or high performance workshop will tell you the Corolla will probably need an extra 50kw at least to negate the 200kg kerb weight difference. So if we are just comparing performance, the extra weight is a huge penalty. 🙂
    Otherwise i love the Corolla for all the extra creature comforts, extra 2 doors and slightly bigger boot for day to day use.

    The GR Corolla seats look the business but they don't hold you in laterally which is a shame. The Yaris seats are more similar to the GR86 seats in their size and provide greater support. I like the proportions of the Corolla and wouldn't say no to one but it's the Yaris every time because is so special and $10k cheaper.

    I’ve been lucky enough to drive both of these. I’ve actually have a order in for the GR Yaris Rallye. Agree the GR Corolla sounds better, but for me the GR Yaris seems more exclusive. Bespoke body where anyone could buy a base model Corolla and put a Chinese made body kit on it to make it look like a GR Corolla. Also mine will be a weekend car so don’t need the practicality of the GR Corolla.

      I actually own GR Yaris Rallye and also owned a Morizo Corolla (Believe it or not) but I kept the Yaris and sold the Corolla, mostly because of the width and extra weight of the Corolla. After driving the Yaris for two years I could really feel the extra girth and felt I wasn't able to pin it on a tight mountain road as easily as the Yaris. Just wish the Yaris had the Morino's closer ration gearbox and more powerful engine. That would be the ultimate car.

    I think the Yaris spins out because of its high grip and therefore less progressive rear slip, i.e when it goes at the back, it goes big. It has a longer wheelbase than a Porsche 911 and Cayman.
