Toyota GR Yaris: Gazoo Racing sports philosophy

Driving the Toyota GR Yaris on the Misano track reveals the true character of one of the most surprising sports cars of today. Under the compact body hides an exceptionally capable 1.6-liter turbo engine with 270 horsepower, a sports chassis and a precisely balanced construction developed in cooperation with the Toyota Gazoo Racing team. The GR Yaris is designed for drivers who appreciate direct responsiveness, lightness and an experience that combines a feeling of complete connection with the car and the track.

Misano World Circuit – The perfect track

Misano is known for technical corners, fast direction changes and excellent asphalt grip – ideal conditions for a car like the GR Yaris. On this professional track, with a length of 4.2 km, the combination of power, lightness and precision is fully revealed. The GR Yaris impresses with stability at higher speeds, excellent steering feel and agility that allows quick and confident corner entry.

Preparation with the instructor

Before you sit behind the wheel of the GR Yaris, you receive introductory instructions about safety, track rules and techniques of sports driving. On the track, a professional instructor will be next to you, giving you precise advice during the drive about braking, ideal lines, turn-in points and correct acceleration. His task is not to drive instead of you, but to help you use the full potential of the GR Yaris and enable progress with every lap.

Explosive acceleration and responsiveness

The three-cylinder 1.6 turbo engine, one of the most technically refined engines in its class, provides strong torque and quick responsiveness. The GR Yaris offers impressive corner-exit acceleration, does not lose breath at higher revs and remains surprisingly stable even at a more aggressive driving pace. The result is an experience that combines sportiness and ease of control.

Lightness and stability – The key to top handling

One of the greatest advantages of the GR Yaris is its low weight and specially reinforced body. This enables extremely quick direction changes, excellent grip and stable behaviour even in aggressive cornering. You will precisely feel what the wheels are doing, while the chassis allows a type of driving that excites both beginners and experienced sports drivers.

An experience that combines fun and precision

The GR Yaris is one of those cars that excite at every moment – thanks to the responsive engine, light handling and the exceptionally pure feeling that the vehicle is built around the driver. On the Misano track, this combination shines in perfect form: the car is fast, predictable, responsive and incredibly fun. If desired, you can immortalize your experience with a professional video recording or photos (extra charge), so you can keep or share your experience with others forever.
