The Toyota GR Yaris is a very exceptional model in itself. In Europe it is the only three-door Yaris, and it is also one with a powerful 1.6 petrol engine that delivers no less than 280 hp. In addition, the GR Yaris in the Netherlands has a starting price of – don’t be alarmed – an extraordinary €85,000. The GR Yaris becomes even crazier. At least, at least once. Meet the GR Yaris M Concept. The Toyota GR Yaris M Concept does not have the engine in the front, but between the front and rear axles. Yes: it has a mid-engine. That power plant is not a 1.6 three-cylinder as in the original, but a 2.0 four-cylinder. We highly doubt whether it will come onto the market. According to Toyota, the GR Yaris M Concept was developed for participation in the Japanese Super Taikyu Series. Still, we didn’t want to deprive you of this crazy creation. But news in Tokyo: Toyota presents a GR Yaris with Aero Package. According to the Japanese, it is still a prototype, but that seems to indicate that we will see more of this in the future. The Aero Package includes an adjustable rear wing and a high, vertically positioned handbrake lever. A touch of rally for the GR Yaris.
