Vehicle Background

Overview

The 2024 Toyota GR Yaris represents the latest evolution of Toyota’s acclaimed rally-inspired hot hatch, developed directly by Toyota Gazoo Racing (TGR) — the brand’s motorsport division. It follows the success of the original 2020 model, which redefined the segment with its pure motorsport engineering and World Rally Championship pedigree.

For 2024, the GR Yaris has been significantly re-engineered. The updates include increased power, a new transmission option, and refined chassis tuning, making it sharper, quicker, and even more rewarding to drive.

Finished in Precious Metal, a refined metallic silver-grey paint tone, the GR Yaris gains a sophisticated yet purposeful appearance, highlighting its sculpted rally-bred bodywork and compact, aggressive proportions.

Performance

The 2024 GR Yaris continues to use Toyota’s G16E-GTS 1.6-litre turbocharged three-cylinder engine, one of the most powerful three-cylinder production engines in the world. However, it receives notable improvements for the 2024 update.

• Engine: 1.6-litre turbocharged inline-three
• Power Output: 280 PS (276 bhp)
• Torque: 390 Nm (288 lb-ft)
• Transmission Options:
  • 6-speed manual gearbox
  • All-new 8-speed Gazoo Racing Direct Automatic with paddle shifters
• Drivetrain: GR-FOUR permanent all-wheel drive system

Performance is immediate and energetic:

• 0–100 km/h in approximately 5.2 seconds
• Top speed: Electronically limited to 230 km/h (143 mph)

The engine’s responsiveness and the upgraded power delivery make the 2024 model even more engaging, while the new automatic transmission broadens its accessibility for a wider range of enthusiasts.

Design

The GR Yaris’s design remains faithful to its rally roots — compact, muscular, and aerodynamically honed. The Precious Metal exterior finish enhances the car’s purposeful stance, reflecting light across its sculpted surfaces to emphasise its flared arches and performance-oriented detailing.

• Exterior: The 2024 model features revised bumpers, a larger lower grille for improved cooling, and new LED lighting units front and rear. The roofline remains low and tapered for aerodynamic efficiency.
• Wheels: Lightweight 18-inch forged alloys in matte black or dark grey, wrapped in high-grip Michelin Pilot Sport tyres.
• Body Structure: Constructed using Toyota’s GA-B platform combined with rally-specific reinforcement, providing exceptional rigidity and reduced weight.

These changes combine to create a more aggressive yet refined appearance — a small car with the visual drama of a full-blown competition machine.

Driving Technology

The 2024 GR Yaris features numerous technical upgrades over its predecessor, many derived directly from Toyota’s WRC experience:

• GR-FOUR All-Wheel Drive: Electronically controlled multi-plate clutch system with selectable torque distribution modes (Normal, Sport, Track).
• Upgraded Chassis: Additional weld points and structural adhesive increase body stiffness for sharper response.
• Suspension: MacPherson strut front and double-wishbone rear suspension revised for improved compliance and cornering balance.
• Brakes: Larger ventilated discs with four-piston front and two-piston rear callipers.
• Driving Modes: New configurable driving profiles for throttle, steering, and differential response.

Combined, these technologies give the GR Yaris remarkable agility and traction, delivering the feel of a rally car engineered for everyday roads.

Interior & Features

The cabin of the 2024 GR Yaris has been redesigned with a greater focus on driver ergonomics and performance functionality.

• Layout: The driving position has been lowered by 25 mm, improving visibility and centre of gravity.
• Steering Wheel & Controls: GR-specific steering wheel and shift lever with motorsport-style controls, including quick-access buttons for drive modes.
• Instrumentation: New 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster displaying key performance metrics such as turbo pressure, torque split, and gear position.
• Seats & Trim: Deeply bolstered GR sports seats upholstered in Ultrasuede and leather with red stitching.
• Infotainment: 8-inch multimedia system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility.

While focused on driving performance, the interior maintains comfort and refinement suitable for daily use.

Motorsport Heritage

The GR Yaris exists as a direct descendant of Toyota’s World Rally Championship-winning Yaris WRC. Developed with input from WRC drivers and engineers, including four-time World Champion Sébastien Ogier, the car’s DNA is inseparable from Toyota’s rally success.

The 2024 update continues this connection, further blurring the line between road car and competition vehicle. It serves both as a showcase of Toyota’s engineering capabilities and as a celebration of rally heritage in the modern era.

Place in the Toyota Line-up

The GR Yaris sits within Toyota’s Gazoo Racing performance range, alongside the GR Supra and GR86. It remains the most authentic embodiment of Toyota’s motorsport spirit — compact, lightweight, and rally-proven.

In its Precious Metal finish, the GR Yaris balances subtle sophistication with unmistakable intent, appealing equally to collectors and drivers who value purity of performance.

The 2024 model consolidates the GR Yaris’s reputation as one of the finest driver’s cars of its generation — a symbol of Toyota’s commitment to performance engineering in an increasingly electrified automotive landscape.
