[@ThomasTwomey]

Toyota this is not a fair comparison. I find it very misleading to have a black and white filter on the interior of the Type R (an area the GRC is lacking). One of the biggest marketing points for the GR Corolla is the free track day. Unfortunately, if you are a halfway talented driver, you can easily overheat the AWD in about 10 minutes of "hard" driving. Additionally, I have had the car detect a crash multiple times on track with proof on my KZbin channel (an issue that was supposed to be fixed way back when Car and Driver did the lightning lap with the Morizo back in Feb 2023 in a pre-production car). Between the issues above, brakes leaking fluid, and poor motor mounts, I feel Toyota marketing has falsely advertised the GRC as a "track capable" car when it is far from it in stock form. The GRC is an amazing car, but it belongs on a backroad or on an icy frozen lake not a racetrack. GRC OWNERS learn from my experience of 5+ track days with this vehicle and keep them on the street until Toyota has resolved some of these issues.

[@shayansalehi173]

Facts

[@aiztoh]

I see, thanks for telling your resolve. I didn't even know these problems existed. and AWD overheating in 10 mins?! that's crazy. Toyota is definitely hiding something.

[@ThomasTwomey]

@@aiztoh Yes if you have any decent pace on the racetrack it will overheat. I have tons of video from my last event and it would happen consistently 10-12min into an HPDE session. The only “solution” that worked for me was spending $1000 on a syvecs AWD controller which did not prevent the limp mode, but does prevent the car from killing all power to the rear (why does the OEM unit not do something like this??). Once I “fixed” the AWD I was noticing issues with soft motor mounts causing inconsistent shifting (not a good feeling when going 100mph through a corner). Sure you can upgrade the GRC to fix most of these issues, but now you are sacrificing on daily drivability. I will make a video to back all this up soon, but I’ve been a bit preoccupied with trading the GRC. I truly think the GRC is an awesome car, but it is over marketed as a track focused car (even has a track setting for the AWD!) when it clearly is not that. Is it better than an STI? Absolutely, but Elantra N and Type R seem to be more track focused out of the box.

[@CTF33]

​@@ThomasTwomeyThe type R overheats on track as well. The Elantra N seems to be to only one actually ready for the track and actually comes with a warranty that covers track use.

[@ThomasTwomey]

@@CTF33 if you push for 20 min straight when it’s hot out yes. If you take a cooldown lap (like I do with GRC). It will be fine

[@zaheeralghul2509]

Type R has the nicer interior.

[@Noobie_3]

They did Civic dirty with the grilles 💀💀

[@willpower1177]

Test drove a GR Corolla and the Civic Type R. Purchased the Civic. The interior of the GRC is so cheap and cramped compared to the Civic. We only get snow here 2-3 days a year so no need for awd. The little 1.6L bogs down on a hard launch to where you can’t even fully take advantage of the awd. Hopefully Toyota can take some constructive criticism and make a decent refresh or maybe the 2nd gen of the GRC can fix what’s wrong with this one. Either way, I’m glad this competition exists in the market and it allows more people to have the opportunity to purchase a hot hatch.

[@SDOTR.]

Im sorry but I would get a 2024 Type R before a GR Corolla but tbh they are both very good and have their quirks but I do love the Type R a bit more

[@JG-mg3if]

Got the GR , for the price I guess if I wanted a CTR I could have got one. I love that the GR is a true hatchback, is smaller and AWD. I guess is the rally look for me, I think the type R is a great car but not for me.

[@christopherbassit2757]

I’ve had my gr corolla for over a year and would definitely trade for that blue circuit

I like how even behind the uninformed / glossed over / laughable biases presented in this comparison, the Type R still won in half of the segments. What's especially funny is that the Type R gives a universal offering for all its premium comforts that Toyota doesn't (I.e. alcantara steering wheel, parking sensors as standard, DAB, interior accent lighting, FULL suede interior, 10.2" screen, choice of exterior at no extra cost). But for the GR corolla that's an added **feature** :O.

I thought the CTR would be seconds faster on track but it’s usually just a few tenths faster. I also got my GR Corolla for $41k at MSRP and the cheapest Civic Type R I could find was $55k.

[@01iverQueen]

I just noticed how both car front grills look almost identical to each other

[@_dmfd]

Both are solid performers & it's just great overall that they're two of the few hot hatchbacks left available to buy new in N America. I daily drive a 2018 GT Sport hatchback which is no longer offered here in the States, but overseas it's known as the i30N. I recently just ordered from factory a 24 A4 Allroad Wagon in Prestige which forsure isn't as track focused as these, but it still performs great 0-60 in 5s, has more room than the hatchbacks which is what I'm needing, but it was tough cross shopping. If I were deciding to stay with a hatch instead of a wagon, I'd more than likely go with an Mk8 GolfR, you just can't beat it as a daily, but I'm just happy to see hot hatches in our market regardless.

I own a 2019 corolla hatchback right now, and I've been on the fence about upgrading for quite some time now. I was waiting for the blue flame to come out so I'm happy to see that. But this video is just funny. 80% of this is pure subjective things, and comparing 5 seats to 4 seats... WOW, the room and comfort difference is basically different leagues in favor of the Type-R. The climate control along with seating comfort is wayyy more adjustable. Worse yet the AWD system has a serous flaw in its design, it can't be cooled down under hard/ slippery driving even in very cold climates, the clutch pack ripped out of the RAV4 just wasn't built for this level of abuse. Non of this takes away from what an amazing car the GR corolla is, but just sell it for what it is. It's a basic Economy car with badass powertrain that gives it a sporty feel for performance/ slippery drives, but its no luxury car, and defiantly not a rally ready car. It still needs a few things fixed, and even the aftermarket community is having a hard time solving the clutch pack issues.

Toyota really did Honda dirty with the choice of picking a dull-colored TypeR to show off and denying viewers from seeing the perfect blood-red guts bucket seats the Type R packs. They also didn't show how crampy the GR's rear seats are compared to the spacious rear seats of the Type R. Thirdly, they didn't talk about how noisy the inside of the GR is compared to the TypeR or how the feel of the quality of interior materials for the GR feels inferior to that of the Type R. Luckily, some of us have sat in both cars, and there are indie KZbinrs who have bought both, and returned one or the other after having it for a while because it didn't really give what it promised. Only things I see the GR beat the TypeR with are the AWD options and also the heated steering/front seats. The TypeR has a better interior feel and space. The Canadian Civic Si 🇨🇦 has heated front/rear seats and steering wheel too, not sure what went wrong in the Honda design department that they didn't include that in the most import feature for cars coming to Canada, for a car that cost almost twice as the Civic Si, the expensive TypeR selling for $75,000CAD right now sh9ukd have heated bits everywhere inside it, while the GR Corolla sells for around $70,000CAD. Both atrociously priced and not in the best interest of enthusiasts that need them as an only car to do ALL things. By the way, what happened to the Moritzo? Saw only CORE, Premium, & Circuit. Has Toyota quietly eliminated it?

[@daveinmsp]

I'm a GR Corolla owner. Both great cars, but they're different cars. If you want AWD, the GR Corolla is the clear winner, but I respect the Type R and what Honda has accomplished with front wheel drive. The Type R is too big for me and the wing is too much cow bell. But, I think the interior in the Type R is *clearly* better.

[@daveinmsp]

@CTF33 Yeah, anytime I'm discussing performance cars, I immediately focus on the color of the carpet...

[@CTF33]

​@@daveinmspIt's called sarcasm, get it?

[@daveinmsp]

@@CTF33 My apologies. I get it now!

[@1anre]

Too big compared to a challenger or American SUV?

[@stealth-x2995]

Man I love both cars but this is the most misleading comparison add I've ever seen.

[@BizByte]

GR is new boy in town. Type-R is a continuous legend. You pick which one. Until GR corolla become a legend, the choice is clear. Can BYD U9 beat a Ferrari from sports car ownership perspective, I don't think so.

[@johnjfrederick]

Yeah Civic Type R only has seating for 4 but it’s practically a minivan inside compared to GR Corolla. And shame on you for gray-scaling the CTRs interior 😂 I actually just finished doing 5-seater conversion to my CTR tonight. There are time I miss my GRC. Mainly the sounds it made 👍

[@1anre]

Hahaha. You caught them too?. Video on the 5 seat conversion on your KZbin?

[@johnjfrederick]

@@1anre no I don’t plan to make video of that. I actually spit out my drink when I read your comment because of how ridiculous that video would have been.

[@1anre]

@johnjfrederick you watch how-to videos every other day. Not sure what's surprising to you there

[@johnjfrederick]

@@1anre I meant if I documented my experience. It might have been a funny video, definitely wouldn’t have been as helpful as the one I watched prior to doing it. The parts I got from the recyclers had a lot of problems and I was doing a lot of swearing.

I pray that Toyota put a V8 or a V6 in the New Land Cruiser T_T, I saw it says that it would put an inline 4, Why? huhuhu, Annyway. are you going to put a much better engine in the Toyota 86? maybe an engine that can output a much higher horse power? or an upgrade of the engine?? to push more power from it? 232 for a sports car is too few. Btw What a review.

[@toyotabrony]

That ain’t gonna happen. They moved on to four banger. This will happen to the 6th gen 4Runner as well. But if that happens, then it would be a good chance for the right type of engine.

[@1anre]

Whats wrong with the GR86 engine? I thought all reviewers said it's perfect for city driving?

[@Axevertis]

Yeah the Land Cruiser is getting an inline 4. The salesman showed me on his computer

[@austinmarmolejo]

Can I borrow this amazing car for a week? I want one sooooo bad😫

[@este_marco]

there is something called work

[@austinmarmolejo]

@@este_marco oh thanks man I almost didn’t think of that😂😭😭

[@yashthegamer4250]

Now we need Hondas reply

[@amit_rude2608]

Love Toyota GR COROLLA ❤❤ but I love honda civic TYPE R FL5 too 😁❤️👍

[@stefco4616]

I understand and respect 3 cilinder in GR Yaris , but in my opinion Corolla schould have more cylinders

[@1anre]

2.0 at least

[@bassirous7592]

3cyl for the type r😮

[@strifu808]

Toyota endorses Eurobeat on their JBL audio system Honda does not now yuo see

[@aerienix]

Shots fired.

[@tezzasaurusrex]

And after all this, the Honda will still run rings around the GRC

[@noob.168]

2 marked up cars having a midoff!

[@RosheDomv2]

Competition breeds excellence. This case it’s the GR Corolla.

[@uoytopo]

This pair of civilian sports car enemies finally can fighting again

[@petergazarek9466]

GR COROLLA 🏁❤️👍 BRUTALL COOL SPORTS CAR

[@toyotausa]

❤️👍

[@Nick-xf8pn]

I've had a Prelude and Integra. Never again will I buy a FWD sports car. Now Honda is bringing back both, but still making the same FWD mistake. Too bad, I won't even bother with test driving them. Even in just rain FWD is annoying, let alone snow.

[@1anre]

Which Honda was AWD?

[@Pokka676]

Toyota cant even add center console armrest. Smh

[@curtfox91]

GR corolla overheat clutch pack turns it into FWD mode. So really on the track it’s just like the type R lol

[@CTF33]

Except the hype R's engine overheats on track too.

[@GR_Papi]

lol I guess imma have beef with Honda Type R’s on the streets after this 😂 F it I’m down, let’s go Toyota!!
