We drive the 2021 Toyota GR Yaris GR-Four and see what this new hot hatch is really like!
Is the GR Yaris the best hot hatch of the last ten years? Quite possibly. Toyota have decided to shoot for the kings of the hot hatch segment, and in today’s video, we find out that they didn’t miss. Look out Fiesta ST, Focus ST, Golf GTI and R and i30 N - this is a great performance three-door. But it isn’t perfect. Manual, three-cylinder only, the GR Yaris arrives in Australia this month.
Would you consider buying a GR Yaris at the new price? Did you score one in the cheap original deal? Will you take one for a test drive?

I'm quite happy with Toyota's pricing structure as I was one of the first 1000 to get one at $39,950. For those whom are upset about the pricing I believe Australia is getting a decent deal as the Rallye or circuit pack edition in Japan is 5.5million yen which is around 75k AUD.

Get the feeling that the car is destined as a Motorsport base for gravel hounds. Be awesome for that by the looks.

Chasing cars is probably the best car reviewer in Australia and you, Tom, one of the best in the business, always very detailed and more importantly, unbiased. Though not a fan of the super hothatches , I think this is really a very nice looking car for someone who is. For those buyers who had taken up the special offers at launch, they must be feeling pretty happy for themselves because they have just bought this car for a song. The dash looks modern and the steering wheel is muscular and well proportioned . Enjoy watching your review, Tom.

@@Peno1992 no they don't this was a trial to see how many they would sell to not make the same mistake as the supra (ordered heaps into Australia with the thoughts they would sell heaps and heaps and sold very very little. dealers literally have demo's that were the first supras to hit the show rooms and still can't sell them 2 years later) the only reason a Toyota will go up is the au dollar and or on road costs inc stamp duty and the import tax. Brand new models sell at near full retail as the demand is hot and there is normally limited quantities. thats one of the little times you can make decent margins out of new cars.

Good to see Toyota finally waking up and realising there is a market for these types of cars. Unfortunately Toyota still think they are the premium brand and thus can charge high prices. They are wrong. As you said those that bought at sub $40K probably bought at what the market will eventually price this car. With i30N an i20N just around the corner with a DCT variant this car will quickly be forgotten. Two door cars quickly become annoying. As for manual, us old school drivers love it but in years to come when you mention manual you'll be handed the car specifications/service manual. My opinion too little too late, give the public an 86 Turbo at $50K then you will genuinelly get me interested.

I bought a new car. It's a nice little Kia picanto gt. I wanted to get a Yaris, but not only did the base model severely spike in price from the previous year but the massive hikes from base to each upper model is ridiculous. You could quite literally buy a new Prius or Camry a few years back for this price. Toyota no longer supports those of us on a budget.

What’s the go with everyone banging on about the golf r being a better buy. The golf r is like 70k drive away. It’s 30k more then the the first 1000 cars and 20k more then the rrp. It’s like saying the A45 is better car then the golf r. Of course, it’s 30k more.
@chasingcars
@chasingcars 3 жыл бұрын
Well, I mean, the Golf R is on a runout offer of $61,894 driveaway, so it’s a fair comparison. Still $8k more than GR Yaris, but it’s obviously more practical.
@geokon7192
@geokon7192 3 жыл бұрын
Yeah But they did sell it at 39k. So if we comparing discounted price then still 21k difference. It’s 50% more of the value of the 39k GR. That’s significant. And bet the golf r didn’t sell 1000 cars in 3 days at run out price.

Type r has a faster Nurburgring time. The gr would be better day to day in wet weather however after driving both I can tell you the Honda even though it's an older car has a better fit and finish and the gearbox thrown feels so much better, also the size is a little more practical.

They're $49,500 plus on-road costs, so about $54k driveaway depending on state. That's 35% dearer than the initial bargain run of 1,000 cars at $39,950 DA.

Thanks for the review Tom. I dunno I'm conflicted on this car. You didn't seem to have quite the smile you had when you drove that prototype I20N. Also JDM masters who drove the non circuit pack car like yours said it's a good car but something is missing. Here in the UK carfection have reviewed the circuit pack car and said it's good but front end isn't that sharp and wished it had a more playful balance..

I think the twinkle in my eye with i20 N was that Hyundai more or less implemented the feedback that us, and some others, gave about i30 N. Get the weight down! The i20 N is so much lighter and that makes the car much easier to manipulate. Here, with the GR Yaris, it's a technically brilliant car and I enjoyed driving it - though I am looking forward to more seat time to get to know it better.

The front looks nice but the side and back doesn't, from the side it looks like a civic hatch. It has the same power (close enough) to an aurion. And the price tag of $50k. I would just wait for another aurion to come out or for that price I get the new Camry they say it's the best toyota car to drive compared to others.

Toyota is trying to catch up with its most feared opponent Hyundai. I would still choose the Hyundai though after this review. The boot on the Yaris is disappointing especially with no spare tyre. Dearer than an i20N is absurd. Hyundai has nothing to worry about here.
