GAZOO RACING: Everything To Know On Toyota's Secret Weapon

  • In the last few years Toyota has done more for enthusiasts than maybe any other automaker.
    They squashed their beef with a former rival to give the 86 new life.
    They resurrected the Supra, and gave it a manual transmission - even when BMW wouldn’t.
    They’ve managed to build the humble Corolla into the spiritual successor of a rallyfighter
    And they EVEN have plans to bring the manual transmission into the EV future, developing a drivetrain for a 100% electric car that has 3 pedals, gearshifts, that you can EVEN stall if you don’t know what you’re doing.
    Just two little letters, and one Akio Toyoda (AKA Morizo) make up the driving force behind all this enthusiast love.
    This is the story of Gazoo Racing | GR

      If only GM listened to their enthusiasts…. They haven’t cared about their fan base in a long time and it shows! The only thing that GM has going for them is their Corvette, and their Trucks….. furthermore, if GM can bring back the Hummer, then they sure as hell can bring back the Trans-Am, Chevelle, GTO, GNX, and GSX-400

      Amen, I have an 09 COBALT SS with a z54 turbo and supporting mods, they should bring it back ans of course keep the weight down which is a big reason for it's INCREDIBLE STEALTHY sleeper Mustang GT and Camaro SS killer and with it's factory 3 upgrade it was by by Corvette, a car that no one really talked about, with its PLASTIC INTERIOR, now it's a drivers car, who cares about the plastic, with relatively little money you can take down cars 5-10 times the cost, doesn't take much unless you want a supercar killer, but streetable every day driver making the big boys with their tales tucked between their legs crying to momma LoL. They'll cry and whine, but but this and that, talking crap, well,,, you just got your butt beat by a crappy car with plastic interior, I don't drive down the road petting my interior but to drive down the road hunting for the next kill 😂😂😂😂. Seriously though, give it all the new fangled stuff while keeping it simple and it'll be BY BY Honda Type R. Honestly no disrespect because I like pretty much ALL sports cars just happened to have the Cobalt SS that I'm pretty partial to and it should be one Chevrolet should bring back, they're getting left behind in the small tuner car culture. Really all it would need is about 320-350 HP and handling to match, doesn't need all the fancy mumbo jumbo, just a drivers car, LSD TRANSMISSION and maybe MAG RIDE as an option, thats it's, be safe and God bless everyone.

      Exactly, what I like about Toyota is they listen to the mass instead of doing what they want. Gazoo Racing meanwhile are all around the motorsport world winning races & title. Actually l, F1 is the only World Championship they aren't involved with.
      In case they decided to join the future. I'm sure it would create a huge impact that would make Toyota fans glad. But I don't think it would happen soon especially if there is no drastic change in the regulations that would allow new manufacturers to instantly cope with the current manufacturers racing in the sport.

    It failed to really push the GR brand in europe, but it is an absolute blast to drive. Many many modifications from normal yaris like: wheel and steering system from GT86, lotus elise 1.8 supercharged engine with 212hp, modified suspension, totaly reworked exhaust, forged BBS racing rims, bucket seats and so on...

    The founder of Toyota, whose family name is Toyoda, made a deliberate decision to change the company's name to Toyota. There are several reasons attributed to this name change:
    Voiceless Consonants: In Japanese, the letter "D" in "Toyoda" is a voiceless consonant, which may not have been as appealing. To create a more pleasing and balanced sound, the decision was made to replace the "D" with a voiced consonant "T," resulting in the name Toyota.
    Jikaku and Good Luck: Another reason for the change lies in the practice of counting strokes in Kanji and Katakana characters, known as Jikaku. The number of strokes can determine good and bad luck. The name "Toyota" has 8 strokes, while "Toyoda" has 10. The number 8 is associated with good luck and fortune in Japanese culture, so the change to Toyota was seen as a favorable adjustment for luck and prosperity.
    International Appeal: Some sources suggest that the change was made to appeal to international audiences and improve the name's acceptability on a global scale.
    Streamlined Design: Toyota's official website mentions that the name Toyota in Japanese lettering is considered more streamlined and visually appealing than the name Toyoda

    I just cant. Every toyota dealership has tried way overpricing the living hell out of their cars. The new supra is literally just a BMW, so i personally cant say the supra pumps up toyotas name at all regardless of a few tweaks they decided to do. Its literally takings someone elses success and riding on it. Just like the 86, which aside from the injection system and transmission which are both weak points when trying to boost the car, its really scummy that toyota has decided to split from subaru and do their own thing by pretty much stealing subarus work and using the toyota name and the consumers lack of knowledge to sell it as their own. Toyota is failing us and its depressing that this video has been made. Yet again, the markets are skewed by people being given money to give part of a story instead of creating content for the true enthusiasts who want to support companies that actually want to do the work. Toyota made a name on both reliability in the past, and their in house over engineering of certain engines like the 2JZ. This just seems like another company who has decided to run their company based on how much they make, and not what they provide to the car community in the long run. The current toyota is an insult to the toyota of the past.
