The Morizo Edition, named after Akio Toyoda's racing pseudonym, is a limited-production, track-ready GR Corolla sold in Japan and North America. Removing the rear seats, rear door speakers and window regulators and the rear wiper, and adding a forged carbon roof, cut about 45 kg to 1,445 kg. Torque from the 1.6-litre turbo three-cylinder rose to 400 N⋅m (295 lb-ft) with unchanged power, through its own EA68F six-speed manual with revised gear and final-drive ratios. It has monotube dampers, wider tyres on lighter wheels and 349 extra spot welds. The GR Corolla was introduced for the 2023 model year and facelifted for 2025.
