GAZOO Racing does it again, the Toyota GR Yaris has no rival after this change
The Toyota GR Yaris is one of the most sporty compact cars, and it is hard to surpass both in the normal variant and the special one equipped with the new Aero Performance package. An original equipment, developed by GAZOO Racing, that has just gone on sale.
Toyota knows that the maximum performance offered by its sports cars is key for customers, and that anything that perfects them and introduces improvements in the form of packages is more than welcome. The Japanese are aware that their range of special models in Europe now depends on a single model, so the incentive has to be more than important to avoid losing customers.
The GR Yaris has proven to be a machine in all circumstances, a compact car with a spectacular design for everyday use, and to enjoy speed and a more dynamic driving experience when stress comes into play. Its 304 hp of maximum power are very difficult to surpass by the competition, making it the only option in its category, and almost also among compact cars.
Toyota makes the GR Yaris an unbeatable sports car
In terms of power, it can measure up to the Golf GTI without problems. And with more guarantees of success now with the new aerodynamic package developed by the Japanese specialists at GAZOO Racing. It is clear that they do not understand crises, because this new aerodynamic performance package leaves nothing to chance.
The first thing you see is a hood made of aluminum with ducts inherited from the rally model, which improves air circulation and dissipates excess heat from the engine compartment. Below, the lip of the bumper is finished with a fine spoiler that increases traction on the front axle by applying more aerodynamic load.
GAZOO Racing shows that more power is useless in a sports car
The open vents in the front wheel arches are not only a heat extractor for the brakes, but the air improves steering response and provides greater stability in curves. The air intakes on the rear skirt are not just for show, but are designed to reduce the "parachute effect", which occurs when the air behind the car lifts the rear bumper.
The icing on this aerodynamic package is the brutal rear spoiler, which is adjustable and increases stability at high speeds, and the full fairing of the fuel tank, which reduces air resistance when driving under the GR Yaris. As you can see, there is nothing that affects the engine or the chassis, already among the best in its class, which features two Torsen differentials, front and rear.
The new Aero Performance package has no problem being mounted on units of the sporty compact equipped with a six-speed manual transmission, or with the eight-speed automatic, but there is an issue with availability. For now, it is only available for sale in Japan, and its price is 2,877 euros, so you can import it if you are interested...
