Thoroughly tested on the Nürburgring, the GRMN Corolla represents the ultimate evolution of Toyota’s hottest hatch, applying extensive upgrades that come together in a driver’s car like no other. A number of aerodynamic upgrades have been made to the vehicle that include a hood duct, fender ducts, front side spoilers, and a rear wing, which also features a five-step adjustment mechanism.

The car’s suspension features front and rear monotube shock absorbers with rebound springs to improve inner-wheel traction in the corners while also enhancing high-speed cornering performance. Enhancements to the car’s stability and braking performance arrive via the addition of Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires.

The 1.6L 3-cylinder engine still produces the same 300 hp as the standard GR but now sees an increase to 302 lb-ft of torque. The 66 lb weight reduction also improved the car’s power-to-weight ratio and the boost in performance also brought improvements to the cockpit with upgraded instrument panel and semi-bucket sport seats in Brin Naub suede and synthetic leather.

The GRMN Corolla will be available later this summer and is limited to 730 units worldwide.
