New GR Sport to expand the Yaris Cross compact SUV range
Toyota is expanding its Yaris Cross compact SUV range with the introduction of a new GR Sport grade inspired by the multi-world championship-winning achievements of Toyota Gazoo Racing. With exclusive exterior and interior features and retuned suspension for sharper, more rewarding handling, the Yaris Cross GR Sport extends the model’s appeal to a wider range of customers, following the success of the established Corolla, Toyota C-HR and Yaris GR Sport editions.
Exterior
On the street, the new Yaris GR Sport is distinguished by new 18-inch 10-spoke alloy wheels with a bright machined finish. The sporting touches also include a new rear diffuser and front grille with an exclusive gloss black mesh pattern and discreet GR badging. A new Ash Grey finish is the GR Sport’s signature colour, available as a bi-tone option with a contrast black roof and pillars. Scorched Orange is also exclusive to the new model.
Interior
In the cabin, the front sports seats have new black Ultrasuede upholstery with red stitching; similar bright stitchwork is featured on the steering wheel and shift lever. The GR logo is prominently featured, on the front head rests, carpet mats, starter button, combimeter and steering wheel, and there are GR Sport-specific gunmetal silver trim inserts in the doors and instrument panel.
