PERFORMANCE
Under the guidance of Master Driver, Morizo, GR Corolla was engineered at the circuit. Evaluated in dust, mud and snow using motorsport data analysis, it emerged more ferocious with every test.

Torque
GR Corolla is fitted with a firebreathing 3-cylinder engine helping to deliver 221kW of power. The addition of a functional 3-piece muffler assists in the reduction of backpressure and an audible amount of grunt.
Circuit-tuned suspension features MacPherson struts in front and trailing double-wishbones at rear. The GR Corolla’s stance is approximately 60mm wider than your average Corolla Hatch, while chassis rigidity has been increased to enhance both your corner stability and grip.
Put power to the ground with the flick of a button. The rally-derived GR-FOUR all-wheel drive system lets you distribute front and rear output to 60/40 for everyday driving, 50/50 for balanced track precision or 30/70 for rear-wheel driving with a playful amount of oversteer.
Handle the highway with finesse when you pre-select your speed using High-Speed Adaptive Cruise Control. Your GR Corolla will automatically adjust speed with the traffic in front.
Dig into corners like a pro. Anti-fade, ventilated disc brakes with ultra-grippy monoblock calipers in ‘GR red’ alumite, paired with 18” alloy wheels. 235mm Yokohama ADVAN®[C11] performance tyres complete the track-ready drivetrain.
Hug the road with a superhuman grip and attack your corner exit with just the right amount of drive torque, distributed by ultra-responsive, dual Torsen®[C22] limited-slip differentials at front and rear.
GR Corolla has three functional tailpipes with an exhaust valve that opens at high speeds. More engine power, more noise. More fun.
