For 100 lucky buyers,
Toyota has done a complete 360 in the past decade or so. The company was stuck in the doldrums, producing forgettable cars that brought loyal fans to the brink of revolt. But the Japanese manufacturing giant is once again producing some of the most exciting sports cars around. Just take the humble Toyota Yaris as an example: this cheap little hatchback has been transformed into a fire-breathing rally car in GR Yaris configuration, and the new Toyota 86 is set to continue its success story. To celebrate this small hatchback, and the launch of Gran Turismo 7, Toyota Spain will be launching a special version of the Toyota Yaris GR Sport Electric Hybrid named the Toyota Yaris GR Sport GT7 Edition.
As the name hints, the GT7 Edition celebrates the arrival of Gran Turismo 7, the latest installment of the world’s most popular racing game franchise. The Toyota Yaris GR Sport GT7 Edition is based on the regular Yaris five-door hatchback, and not the rally-bred GR Yaris that has taken the world by storm. Toyota will only offer 100 of these cool-looking little hybrid hatchbacks and those few lucky buyers are in for a treat. The GR Sport GT7 Edition can't be considered a hot hatch, but its 1.5-liter hybrid powertrain does offer a decent 114 horsepower. The exterior of the GT7 features tons of GT branding, unique paint options, and a set of 18-inch wheels with machined red segments. Not only will buyers get their hands on this cute little limited edition Yaris, but they will also receive a PlayStation 5 console and a physical copy of the new Gran Turismo 7 game.
This partnership between Toyota and Gran Turismo is more than skin deep, as Toyota will be one of the main partners of the Toyota Gazoo Racing Iberian Cup, a one-make series launched by Toyota Spain featuring race-prepped Toyota GR Yaris RZ cars. Toyota will also be involved in the second edition of the Spanish Gran Turismo Championship where the winner will drive away in a Yaris GR Sport GT7 Edition.
The GR Sport GT7 Edition and Gran Turismo 7 will both be available on March 4, 2022, and while Toyota Spain is yet to announce pricing for the GT7 Edition, you can expect to pay $89.99 for the GT7 game.
