Peak Performance: Toyota Introduces the 2026 GRMN Corolla

  • On Monday, Toyota unveiled the 2026 GRMN Corolla, a track-focused hatchback featuring a two-seat cabin and a turbocharged 1.6-liter engine producing 300 horsepower.
  • Intensive Nrburgring testing and Japanese Super Taikyu racing guided development, following Master Driver Akio Toyoda's philosophy of "making better cars starting from motorsport."
  • Engineers added high-grip Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires and retuned the powertrain to produce 302 pound-feet of torque, achieving a 40kg weight reduction by removing rear seats.
  • Although Toyota has not confirmed pricing, the track-ready hatch will likely cost closer to $80,000 when it arrives in select markets later this year.
  • The GRMN badge signifies "Gazoo Racing tuned by the Meister of Nrburgring," Toyota said, with Australian consumers expecting the limited-run vehicle in 2027.
