FIRST DRIVE: Toyota GR Yaris, the £300pm rally car | Top Gear
Well... sort of a rally car. Known as a homologation special, this Toyota GR Yaris has been built with the distinct purpose of providing the perfect base for a WRC car. Lower roof line. Wider track. The shared parts between this and your nan's Yaris are few and far between. The 3-cylinder turbo motor sends its 257bhp to all four wheels and that's just the start of what makes this hot hatch so unlike its rivals. So, let's find out more with Top Gear magazine editor Jack Rix...

Well under 5.5 seconds? So, 5.4 seconds?
Manual Transmission brought me here...
My GR come november 2021 and they say maybe.... 😥. Hope can soon. +62 country
For crying out loud, get rid of the blasted music behind the commentary. Most of what the man is saying is getting buried!!!
Less face. More car.
oh man idnt knowt his man!.....imiss hammond,clarkson
sold out ngabb
Gara" Om Fitra Eri jadi penasaran nontonin ini nah..
A mint one will be worth 100k in 10years I reckon.
Fitra Eri pasti nonton ini sebelum beli
Now put that driving package into a Corolla Wagon.
How hard does this guy try to be Richard Hammond lOl 👎
Lebih ditunggu citycar EV
Everyone - Supra's just a BMW in drag Toyota - we take it very personal
come back jeremy
That little shit looks fun
Definitely need this car in US but no we can't get it because Americans hate hatchbacks but don't mind a fatter hatchback = crossover.
What ? Where is sir Clarkson???
And I'm afraid. 😏
I love that there is now at least 1 “rally cross” type car around... I LOVE this idea, and I hope there’s more of this kind of car to come!! Small, fast acceleration, simpler settings etc.
Great great car, Mada...I mean Toyota did a great job, just like Z4, I mean Supra... and the Subaru 86... And Yamaha LFA...etc they are all awesome, but I still choose to buy Honda products.
In Italy, already sold out. No more orders.
I love how it sounds like a baby I6/V6. It makes me even more disappointed the US isn't getting it.
You would design a car that would look exactly like that? It looks like it fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down🤮
I think it looks awesome
I sure do love living in America where everyone likes trucks and crossovers and we never get cool shit like this
yes, ther is a "drift Mode". in Sport the rear wheels will turn faster then the front wheels. read the instructions from toyota ;)
Really exciting fun !!
I want one
Cracking little car, But you No it won’t be long till another manufacturer brings something out better 🙄
Takie it to some rally stage in Wales
Nice card toooooo much money
It’s hichard rammond 🥴
Top gear just ain’t what it used to be
Fun to see Toyota finally remembering the good old days and building driver cars.
The front looks ok. but the back end with those arches make it look like a bulldog p*ssing on a power cable.
Imagine if Hammond Clarkson and May reviewed this,😂🔥
Oh dear Christ, man, get over it
3 cilinedr turbocharged: 260 HP and 330 Nm of torque - that is impressive.
Best thing since the Gli twin cam
Is it just me or do i hear a tone of v12 Lambo?
It’s called the GR Yaris, not the Yaris GR
One or two problems now with cars, the roads are full of potholes, and speeding is expensive which is the least of your worries if you kill someone. And your now limited to how far you can drive, covid lockdown. But i agree Toyota makes the most reliable cars outhere.
Only if they put this engine into 86....sweet
Thought it was a carbon fibre wrap? Am I wrong?
Great review Hammond.
toyota engine is bad, really bad
In 10 years people will look at the GR Yaris like people today look at let's say a Delta S4 or a STI WRC car from the 2000's
Strong start to the video but, the audio work is a mess. The music starts great and the mic sound matches but, then the music was lowered and so was the mic so that all that really happened is the whole audio map slid down a hill all together. Should’ve killed the music instead of lowering the whole audio. Could’ve brought the music back in in bursts along with the exterior shots and alternated that with no music onboard and no music during speech. Should’ve, could’ve, would’ve but, the reality is that the video was very underwhelming after that cool intro.
The most annoying and amazing car today
50k euro is crazy for a hot hatch
I wish it was old top gear
Never tought a real car could sound like a Gran Turismo car.
Awesome T
yo who is this dude wheres jeremy
300? where? lol
I love when the Japanese make cars like this
Initial D comeback 2020 confirmed?
Maybe ten years from now if the mk V supra holds up reliable, 86, gr yaris and the supra toyotas trio would be legendary once like 90s era
In Australia these start around 50 thousand dollars... that's a similar price to a new 4WD like a BT50 or the like... not worth it for a 3 cylinder disposable car....
EVERYONE GO TO TOYOTAS WEBSITE, WHERE ARE THE HIACE GR VIDEOS!?
car looks like sheeeeit. toyota is becoming the cringe car manufacturer.
I have a feeling, this will be that car that people will be talking about till the next century.
I like this guy as a presenter. Not a funny guy, but engaging and informative
If someone was like you can have a free 2020 supra or free Gr Yaris Id take the Yaris any day
Your not Ron..........
I love this car 🚗♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🚗🚗🚗
Fat wing in the back please :))
Wow the new hosts are really boring
....Chris Harris didn’t do this review...?
Does he release that’s the noise from the speakers😂😂😂😂
@Phil Court 😂😂😂
I was thinking that 😂 real noise sounds like a hoover.
Design is still behind 208 and Corsa.
Oh yes listen to that artificially produced engine noise. In other words the thing sounds so shit that it was better to just fake the sound. Not for me I’m afraid.
Id love it if it wasnt for the sound. EU regulations are not only preventing damage to the environment but also fun
You have to get LSD, surprised it’s not as standard but fair play to Toyota for making something at least interesting.
Rubbish. Clarkson, Hammond and May must come back!!
James would have loved this
So it has the same 0-60 time and top speed at the 1995 Subaru Impeza Turbo 2000 UK spec. I'd love to see them go head to head to see how far the game has moved on in 25 years.
They will sell a couple of hundred Max
I wish Toyota would bring this in the Philippines
Toyota really just told Subaru to suck it huh?
The Yaris looks like a great candidate for a typical low-cost fully-electric car. It's small and relatively cheap. Anyone agree?
No. This one is for car guys. If you want hybrid get the normal yaris
It’s more expensive than a golf r where I live :(
And I never thought I’d say I want a yaris
This dude is so boring
GR.... more like grrrrrrrrrr. If only they'd sell these in Canada. Its only times like this that I think, what if I hadn't emigrated, this would be in my garage.
I'll take an i20n instead.
No turbo kick from hybrid system :( ;)
I want one
In denmark it costs freaking 68.788 GBP
My brain just can not connect this presenter with petrol-head excitement. Everything is wrong.
Looking at this makes me realise how much I miss Clarkson on to car
I had to laugh when he goes "Wow listen to that engine". Its a fake noise pumped in from the cars speakers ahahahaha. Oh dear Top-gear. You really need to to better.
The factory-claimed hp are underated like the hellcat, and I love it
sersly miss , may - clarkson - hammond !
Wish it came to the states.
YOOOOOOO is that a Yaris????????
this is a dream car
Japan doing what itndoes best.Making interesting and reliable cars.Welcome back Toyota.
The Lancer Evos of the past would be proud of this little Yaris gr hot hatch. Carrying on the tradition in style. Now we need a new Lancer Evo too!
"Hammond!"
I need chris come to try this car
Imagine this thing with a remap and a high flow catalyst. Wouldn't be surprised if you could get 300+ wheel out of it. Race chip already got it to 290 crank and that's just a piggyback
