  • Chris Harris drives one of the most special hot hatches of modern times. This is not your Nan’s Yaris. Unless your Nan’s Yaris has a carbon roof, 257bhp, 4WD and can decouple the rear drive shafts to do better skids. Yes, it’s time for Chris to take on, and get sideways in, the rally homologation special Toyota GR Yaris.

      It's sad how they put more effort on their hatchback than their flagship sportscar, the new Supra is a fast car but 15 years from now it'll be driven by some broke kids just like 350Z, the GR Yaris on the other hand will ended up being a sought after car

      It's very doubtful that Toyota actually make any money from the physical sale of a GR Yaris. As a tool to resurrect the brand in WRC/Motorsport however it's probably worth every Yen Toyota spent on it :)

      205 GTi, yes (not the normal 205), but no, since that was a normal car for a normal price. This GR Yaris got released in the least amount needed to function as a homologation car for their WRC project. Same with the GR Super Sport which is the homologation car for their WEC car.

      There will be ICE toys like this for a good ten years yet but yes, they are on the way out. On the other hand, an EV with a motor on each wheel can be set up to outperform this. It just won't have the noise that all the little boys like.

      I wouldn't say the time of combustion engines is over. In fact combined with an electric motor, I.e. Hybrid, it is the most environmental friendly option today, even more than an EV, which has a ten times larger battery than the Hybrid. So, let car makers produce good Hybrids and the combustion engine will live on quite a while into the future!

      The GR is obviously the better of the two by far but I'd have to remortgage my house to get it.. and this video isn't helping. Lol.

      @@nikosdimitriadis9987 Thanks. Yes, I think you are so right. Very interesting that you say that, I actually went from a 106 GTI to an Impreza and the exact same applied there. the less stable, lift off oversteer GTI was actually far more fun day to day with its performance being more accessible on the road.
      To have real fun on the road in this you would have to push it waaay beyond what you normally have to do.. and say goodbye to your licence or be a danger to other road users. Great car but Imo its more of a track/stage toy.
