  • It's a rally rocket for the road. A lightweight, pocket-sized, all-wheel drive, three-cylinder turbo screamer with enough grunt to blow the doors off performance cars twice its size.
    Yes, it's the much-anticipated Toyota GR Yaris, the basis for homologation of Toyota's 2021 World Rally Championship contender. And remember, Toyota won the manufacturer's title in 2018, the driver's championship last year, and is leading the WRC pack in 2020. So, it's a significant arrival, packing a huge amount of tech into a compact, entertainingly racy package.
    Toyota invited us to a local launch program, including open and closed road driving opportunities, so we could see what all the fuss is about.

    What I don’t get is, Toyota says it costs too much develop a sport car. Hence why they partnered with Subaru with the BRZ/86 and the BMW for the new supra. Then out of nowhere they develop this?? A new motor, with a bespoke chassis?? 😂 😂 they should’ve put this effort into the supra.

Interesting also to see what the Nissan 400z will be priced. Nice alternative to the supra being all built by Nissan.
