We meet for a highly anticipated test: the new Toyota GR Yaris 2024, new version, equipped with an optional automatic transmission. It's not just a restyling, it has been profoundly improved: engine, chassis, cooling... It still has a small 1.6L 3-cylinder but it now produces 280hp and 390Nm. 0-100: 5.2s and Vmax 230 km/h.
This one has the Track pack, the only chassis configuration available in Europe from now on.
I'll take you on the road and circuit to test this little bomb in manual and automatic gearboxes! Toyota also released special versions: the Ogier and the Rovanpera, with distinctive looks and a clean torque distribution.
