The Toyota GR Corolla is the most exciting car to bear the name since the AE86 Levin and Sprint Trueno, but like those icons it's not for European consumption. Here's the latest -
under the Gazoo Racing brand that prioritises engaging, thrilling driving dynamics over everything else. The specialised hot hatchback will be built in both left- and right-hand drive, with varying specifications available depending on its intended market, but consistent to all is the turbocharged triple, all-wheel drive and wide-body stance.
Specific to the Morizo are some additions to its technical package that go even further than the RZ and US models, starting with the structure itself which has been stiffened on account of its extra 3.3 metres of structural adhesive and the addition of body reinforcement braces – one of which makes its way between the rear strut mounts thanks to the removal of the rear seats.
Unlike the GR Yaris’s chassis that combines a mix-and-match of elements from both the standard Yaris and larger C-HR crossover, the Corolla’s structure is closer to the base car. Suspension at both ends is new, with wider tracks front and rear on modified MacPherson front and double wishbone rear suspension layouts. Morizo models come with new Monotube dampers on both axles, which also lowers the ride height by 5mm, but all GR Corollas otherwise utilise passive dampers.
