    Toyota GR Yaris 2019-

    The GR Yaris is Toyota's idea of a 21st century homologation special. An homologation special they most probably didn't need because they could have just modified the standard five door version and rally that instead. In fact they have to produce at least 25.000 of them in order to be eligible for rallying. It also has a 3 cylinder engine for that reason.

    The car is also a hybrid, being Yaris on the front but a Corolla on the back. The Corolla part allows Toyota to fit a wider rear axle and independent rear suspension for added four wheel drive-ness and whatnot. The car has 261bhp and a 6 speed manual.

    The JDM cars have 10bhp for a total of 271bhp; that makes them the car with the 3 cyilinder engine with the most bhp/litre in the market currently. There is also a Performance version which includes lower profile tyres, forged wheels and limited slip diffs front and rear.

    In Japan it starts at about 32 grand (Golf GTI money), pricing for Europe will be announced at a later date.

    I want one, even though I have no real use for it.

    Wow, this brings me back to the Celica GT-Fours from the late 80s to mid 90s.

    Real cool stuff. I highly doubt this will come to the US though.

    Comes with a stick too!
