The Toyota GR Yaris has a 257 HP turbocharged three-cylinder and all-wheel drive
What happened
The Toyota GR Yaris is perhaps the most promising hot hatch to launch since the Hyundai i30 N, and while it won't be sold in all markets, it has the right ingredients to put its rivals on notice.
Why it matters
Each and every GR Yaris will be constructed on a dedicated production line at Toyota’s Motomachi factory in Japan.
While much of the production process is handled by robots, a host of experienced workers also play a key role in ensuring that each and every GR Yaris to leave the production line is absolutely perfect.
Powering the hot hatch is a 1.6-liter turbocharged three-cylinder pumping out 257 hp and 266 lb-ft (350 Nm) of torque, while in Japanese specification grunt is increased to 268 hp and 273 lb-ft (370 Nm).
