The 2023 Toyota GR Corolla hatchback is the company’s first ever, and some are even going as far as comparing it to the legendary Celica GT-Four. Available in Core and launch-year-exclusive Circuit Edition, each one of these compact sports cars will be precision built at the GR Factory at Toyota’s Motomachi Plant.
Power comes from Toyota’s turbocharged 1.6L, 3-cylinder G16E-GTS direct/port engine generating 300 hp and 273 lb-ft of torque, mated to a 6-speed manual transmission that sends power to all wheels via the GR-Four all-wheel drive system. Other features include a forged carbon fiber roof, vented bulge hood, sleek rear spoiler, Brin Naub suede-trimmed sport seats with red accents, an all-new touchscreen Toyota Audio Multimedia system, and a launch-year-exclusive Morizo signed shift knob. The Core model is set to arrive later this year, while the Circuit Edition won’t hit showrooms until 2023. Unfortunately, pricing has not yet been announced.
