FactBeyond 545 extra spot welds, Toyota stiffened the GRMN Yaris with an additional 12 metres of structural adhesive.
The GRMN Yaris ("Gazoo Racing, tuned by the Meister of the Nürburgring") is a limited-production version of the GR Yaris RZ, unveiled at the 2022 Tokyo Auto Salon and sold from the first quarter of 2022. Its 1.6-litre turbo three-cylinder gains 20 N⋅m to 390 N⋅m (288 lb-ft) with unchanged power, behind a close-ratio gearbox with shot-peened gears and a reinforced clutch. A twill-weave carbon bonnet and roof and deleted rear seats save about 20 kg, and 545 extra spot welds stiffen the body. Circuit and Rally Packages were offered. 500 were made.

Owning one

The GR Yaris isn’t really a Yaris underneath — Toyota grafted the Yaris’s front end onto the Corolla’s rear platform just to fit its rally-bred AWD system.
