Get ready for an adrenaline rush—Toyota Motor Philippines (TMP) has officially launched the New GR Yaris, a high-performance machine born from World Rally Championship (WRC) technology. Now available with both manual and automatic transmissions, the latest iteration of this rally-inspired powerhouse goes on sale starting March 6.
The GR Yaris isn’t just a car—it’s a statement. Rooted in Toyota’s motorsport legacy and built under the philosophy that “roads build cars”, this hot hatch brings track-honed performance to the streets.
What’s New?
More Aggressive Styling – A bolder, more aerodynamic design with 18-inch aluminum-forged wheels, LED lighting, and a rear spoiler to enhance its rally-bred look.
Upgraded Performance – Under the hood, the G16E-GTS 1.6L turbocharged three-cylinder engine now delivers 280 PS and 390 Nm of torque, paired with an upgraded drive mode system, a new sub-radiator, and an intercooler spray for better cooling and performance.
Two Transmission Choices – Choose between the new 8-speed Direct Shift automatic transmission with paddle shifters for quick gear changes, or the 6-speed intelligent manual transmission for purists who love total control.
Tech-Packed Interior – A 12.3-inch TFT meter display with tire pressure monitoring and a 7-inch infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto keep you connected while on the move.
Enhanced Safety Features – Drive with confidence thanks to Toyota Safety Sense (TSS), Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM), Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA), intelligent clearance sonar, and a back monitor. The A/T variant also comes with Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, while the M/T model features Adaptive Cruise Control.
