This year, Toyota celebrates 51 years since its first victory in the World Rally Championship (WRC), and on that occasion it revealed the GR Yaris TGR Italy Limited Edition. It is a version of their most powerful B-segment car, which will be offered only to Italian customers.

The GR Yaris TGR Italy Limited Edition will be powered by a 1.5-L turbocharged engine with 280 hp (206 kW), mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission and a GR-Four system that sends power to all four wheels. It sits on a set of 18-inch forged wheels in Heritage Gold wrapped in semi-slick Pirelli P Zero Trofeo R tires.

The car has a white body with red decals and a livery inspired by the car that took the first WRC victory at the Press On Regardless Rally in Michigan, the Corolla 1600 Coupe. The car has a unique plate with the TGR Italy logo and the number of the copy. It is equipped with the Tech Package that includes parking sensors, a blind spot monitoring system and a rear traffic warning system with automatic braking.

Toyota will produce only 51 cars and each will cost 67,500 euros. The first deliveries are expected by the end of this year, and those who want to pre-order the car must pay a deposit of 2,500 euros.
